Watching prime time TV has become a real gamble the last couple years. There are so many shows you never know if the one you pick to watch will last. Often they are counseled without a resolution to the storyline. The networks don't really care about the viewers. Their primary concern is number of viewers and making money, beating the rival networks. You feel burned when it is a show you like and have dedicated time to watching every episode. It feels like it was a complete waste of your time. Although it was enjoyable while it lasted. I have been burned over 40 times in just the last five years. Yet I always watch the news shows risking getting screwed again. The whole time the thought is in the back of my head, they better not cancel this.
Currently in the balance are the shows - the Killing, Nikita, Chuck, Body of Proof, King. Chuck has been at risk of being canceled almost every year but has somehow survived. The following are a list of TV shows canceled since 2006 which I have seen every episode (* next to the best):
XIII, Endgame, the Cape, *Caprica,*the Defenders, the Event, the Gates, Human Target, Lone Star, No Ordinary Family, Chase, down Lie to Me, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, Off the Map, *Rubicon,*V, Dollhouse, Eastwick,*Heroes, Robin Hood,*Kings, Monk, Flash Forward, Knight Rider, Crusoe,*Life, Reaper,*Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles, Pushing Daisies, Journeyman, *Traveler, Cavemen, Moonlight, Cane, Bionic Woman, Las Vegas, Phenomenon, the Riches, *Primeval, the Nine, Vanished, *Invasion, *Surface, Heist, Eve, Threshold
At least some of these had a good run instead of just one season. Such as Heroes, Monk, Las Vegas, and Primeval.
