Back on the critical list. I'm now hearing ABC is thisclose to shutting down Club for good.













Thanks! I have been worried about "Samantha Who?" ! Love that show, it is so much fun!
(And it goes without saying: Lost. But I knew the deal with that show.)
I am sad to hear about the Bionic Woman. I am happy that Life will be back. I have to pick a good time to tell my wife about the loss of Journeyman; she really liked that show.
Boohooo "Heroes" not until fall :-(
I MISS THE OFFICE SO MUCH!!!!!!!!! :(
My boyfriends loved <i>Journeyman</i> so much.. he kept all the episodes on the DVR so I could watch them. I never did... How sad!
Now I know <i>Big Shots</i> was pretty corny.. but I kinda like it. Too bad.. sooo sad!!!
Pushing Daisies
No new episodes until fall.
WTF?
Yay for Men in Trees!!
no shock most back in time for sweeps
YAY for more Moonlight episodes!! Even 1-2 more would make me ecstatic.
What about Dexter?
They should all be fired and now hire new talent. I said it before if all of our favorite fast food servers went on strike, you would see the price of a burger go up 75% and then they would all be fired. But we would still have to pay the astronomical prices. Look at what happened to the toll bridges in New York they all went up. Yeah I might be baballing but it makes sense to me.
I must have more Moonlight!!! That is my absolute fave new show!
Poor Chuck. I miss that show already!
