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.

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."

    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.

      Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out

      Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.

      Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
