Cancelled TV Shows 2008/2009


Recommended Posts

prison break was getting dull, so was heroes :/.

but supernatural? it's an badass show, also some other good shows leaving the big screen.

atleast dirty sexy money isn't canceled, one of my favorite seasons, season 1 ended in israel, hoping se 2 soon.

the unit NOOO!! pls don't kill it, though im ****ed they killed hector (saw that episode few days ago), aomost cried :/, though iread about it in forum a few days before i watched it, got so mad, i knew it was going be that episode,its like i saw one second forward before he got killed, i knew what was going happen (i didn't know when, i knew he was going die, but i just knew next sec he will die, it was so obvious)

Season 1 of Terminator was good, season 2 not so much. Prison Break is shockingly good this season, they really turned that show around aftera an awful season last year.

Heroes and Chuck are the 2 best shows on TV right now, and while neither is perfect, they are far better than most other shows.

She is not happy ;)

To The TV companies[/b] : 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.

Don't remind me, remember what happened with ALF? They ended the season on a cliffhanger with him being captured, and then...cancelled. WTF? A few years later they did make a movie to tie up the story but it had none of the original cast and was just horrible.

Going back to international stations fighting for rights, FOX are kind of in a win win situation, well, at least Rupert Murdoch is! They "sell" shows like Prison Break and 24 to Sky, which comes of out of and goes back in to Murdoch's pocket anyway! So, it hardly costs the cash injector anything and then they get the added viewer subscription fees in addition to cash from other international stations that Murdoch doesn't own paying for his shows.

Conversely you can say that FOX are biting their own ass by not letting other stations (especially Free to Air - Heroes BBC, Prison Break formally on Five) stations pay for the shows. Hence they would gain revenue from an external source and not lose subscriber fees because those channels are free to air anyway.

I don't know what everyone elses thoughts on the situation is, but why should ratings matter so much when you are clearly making money? Isn't that business? Especially in the current "credit crunch" climate we are in!

Man, they should re-cancel family guy.. That one last night SUCKED.

I wholeheartedly agree. I choose to ignore every episode after the cancellation, anyway. The show is so fundamentally different that it's hard not to. That isn't to say that Family Guy isn't occasionally funny, but it certainly has "The Simpsons Syndrome."

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
    • Macbook Air is an appealing option, as are plethora of Windows devices with various different CPU's
    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
