[stevenash]

A lot of shows I enjoy are ending or ending next season.

Funny thing is every time a show that I love comes to an end, I always say "there will never be another '24' (for instance) and the following year something else comes along that makes me say "wow, this is great"

[pronk]

NBC morons canceled 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. and Outsoursing after just 1 season.
I hope they go broke.

[CountNo_Account]

Show jumped the shark in season 4....

Burn Notice is ending this summer.
That's my guilty pleasure.
Sure it's a light hearted spy show, but I really enjoyed the concept.
But at least Matt Nix knows the shelf life for spy shows like Burn Notice and '24' are seven years.
'24' hung on one season too many, (my all time favorite), but I read now Keifer is in negotiations with FOX to bring it back.

I can live with a rejuvinated '24' for say three years.

[Dutch]

How was the finale?

Burn Notice is fantastic, gonna be upset to see it go. I thought Go On was worthy of another season as well, not something I watched the day it aired, but every episode was worth watching at some point.

Throughout the years I've gone from Whose line is it anyway, to House, to 2.5 Men, to SVU, to the Unit (underrated great show), to Big Bang Theory, to currently Burn Notice and Suits, once those two finish... Well, hopefully there is something else good.

Huge Burn Notice fan, sorry to see it go, sure, but they are running out of plots.
Trivia question. Who danced the tango with Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman?
Gabrielle Anwar. Hottest skinny girl ever.

Vegas was put in tough time slots.

[daneblazer]

So many bad shows...

Dexter & Breaking Bad are two of my favorites. They've kinda let Dexter drag on for too long.

[actiondan]

I miss Yes, Dear and Still Standing

[pronk]

How was the finale?

A bit strange, Stanley retires, Kevin gets fired and Michael returns for Shrute- Angela's wedding.
Oh yeah, Creed gets arrested selling drugs.

[koz-man]

Dexter & Breaking Bad are two of my favorites. They've kinda let Dexter drag on for too long.

I agree... I enjoy the 4 episodes every Friday night on Showtime2

[chipper]

I'm gonna' miss the Office and Vegas. Bummer...

[GUMMO77]

Has anyone seen Justified? Debating if I should get into that show.

The League is funny, not great.

Arrested Development is funny as hell.

Breaking Bad is probably the best show I have seen.

[DwightShrute]

The Office was one of my favorite sitcoms up until Michael left. Then it dropped big time. The first 7 seasons of The Office were great.

[SamDiamond]

Justified may be the very best show on tv.

Fx is producing some incredible shows---- Sons of Anarchy is pretty damn good too.

Right now, I would be hard pressed to name a show that is clearly better than Justified.

Thanks.

I have been watching Sons of Anarchy on NetFlix and need a break; of course Justified isn't on their, but I'll pick up the DVD's somewhere.
