Cancelled TV Shows 2008/2009


Recommended Posts

It's interesting that all these networks cancel these shows based on the general US ratings, but surely the international appeal has to have some effect? They make huge revenue from sales of episodes to international broadcasters.

Yeah thats an interesting theory actually, maybe they should start to look at International viewing figures before deciding.

In regards to the Desperate Housewives/Grey's Anatomy shows and their ilk getting such high numbers: what is their demographic?

Think about it? Since most homes now have 2 or more decent TV sets, the women watch the "chick" shows while the men...umm....go watch another show.

I find that Domestic Tranquility is preserved when the wife watches "Dancing With the Stars". I just head over to the home office and watch something else.

Good thing I barely watch TV anymore. Everything I used to love to watch was canceled ~1997.

Same here, I usually wait for the 2nd series to be confirmed before watching the first.

To The TV companies : Stop using cliffhanger endings at the end of a show's season. If you decide to cancel the show then you won't have wasted our time with a non-finished storyline. Also I really really hate waiting 6 months to find out what happens anyway.

Also it's a crime to allows series like Friends and Sex In The City to go on for what seems like eternity and decent shows like Firefly, Terminiator, etc barely make it to the end of 1 season.

The Riches Cancelled!

Word came down.

That word is cancelled.

Thank you everyone, all the passionate folks who were rooting for our return. Alas it will not be.

As I said before, onward!

Sincerely

Firefly? Yes. Terminator? Oh heck no

You are basing an opinion on a show you haven't watched :blink:

I've watched FOX for quite a long time back when I didn't have cable. Kept up with 24, Prison Break, and such. However, I always had a knack for choosing which shows would be canceled. I know that sounds dumb, but I can tell you with all honesty that the gut feeling has never failed me.

Now, unless Terminator has Jessica Alba in it, I don't think it'll last very long. :p

You ARE kidding, right? Dark Angel HAD Jessica Alba in it, and FOX still cancelled it!! It ended with a cliff hanger ending too (if I remember correctly), but it didn't make it past the 2nd season!

    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
