News Dozens of TV Shows Cancelled as Networks Clean House - GoFuckYourself.com

fuck

the following cancelled

It’s house-cleaning time for the major networks as the cancellation ax falls in order to make for new additions in the fall.

Some shows, such as NBC’s “State of Affairs” and “Constantine,” have been off the air so long that it feels they’d already been cancelled. But the formal notice falls just as hard even when if it is long expected.

Among the big four networks, NBC got out the largest broom on Friday, a sign of the struggle it had this year with new series. “Marry Me,” “About a Boy,” “One Big Happy” joined earlier casualties “A to Z” and “Bad Judge.”

On the drama side, “Constantine” and Katherine Heigl’s comeback vehicle, “State of Affairs,” were formally terminated, as was “Allegiance” earlier in the year. The bell is also expected to ring soon for another drama, “American Odyssey.”

NBC was in the same boat that ABC was last year when it scrapped “Suburgatory,” critical darling “Trophy Wife” and a slew of other weak performers.

However, nowadays there are many more options for relocating TV shows if they still have a pulse with some core demo. And now that creatives have easy access to converse with fans via social media, “save this show” efforts can spread like wildfire.

There was instant chatter about “Constantine,” based on the DC Comics “Hellblazer” property, relocating to another network.

Fox’s “The Following” is rumored to be making the digital rounds, but speculation about Hulu making a play is offbase, say sources. The Kevin Bacon starrer came out strong in its first season in 2013 but faded fast in season two and never recovered.

Hulu is in negotiations to rescue “The Mindy Project” from the cancellation heap. Fox opted to pull the plug after three seasons. But reruns of the show starring Mindy Kaling has been a strong performer for Hulu, which licensed the rights from producer Universal TV. That gives Hulu a strong incentive to pick up more episodes. And certainly Universal TV wants to keep going for at least one or two more seasons to bring the total number of episodes produced closer to 100 vs. the 65 or so at this point.

Beyond “Mindy,” the landscape for new comedy series was brutal this season as only a few freshman series went the distance. ABC was the notable exception with “Black-ish” and “Fresh Off the Boat” coming out of the box strong. ABC’s “Cristela,” however, was among the casualties. ABC also threw in the towel quickly last fall on comedies “Selfie” and “Manhattan Love Story.”

ABC dramas “Forever” and “Resurrection” also failed to live up to their titles and came to an end during the past season.

CBS had hard times with first-year laffer “The McCarthys” and “The Millers,” the latter of which got a quick hook last fall only weeks into its second season.

Freshman drama “Battle Creek” came on in midseason with a strong pedigree — it came from showrunner David Shore and “Breaking Bad” creator Vince Gilligan — but it wasn’t strong enough to overcome middling ratings.

Fox’s other cancellations this season included “Backstrom,” the offbeat dramedy starring Rainn Wilson, and comedy “Mulaney,” which folded in February. Fox also had the biggest reality flame-out of the year with “Utopia.” The series that sent a group of strangers off onto a ranch to build their own society was envisioned as airing for a full year but managed only a few weeks until the social order crashed.

"Mom" on CBS is pretty funny.

One of my favourites as well - The only real disappointment is 'Revenge' - It' like Dallas with mobiles - Lots of epic bitch slaps...

2 broke girls is renewed? Blimey, that has to be one of the weakest programmes I've ever seen. bad script and bad acting.

I thought Whitney was much better, but they canceled that after two seasons I believe. Admittedly, the second season was not near as good as the first season. Whitney Cummings is pretty good though.

I didn't realize Grey's Anatomy was still on.

celandina · 05-10-2015, 07:15 AM

Well, until CNN has Anthony Fucking Bordain ( instead of news) and History " is made everyday" with shit like Pawn Stars... All is well in the good old USA

Paul&John · 05-10-2015, 09:14 AM

Some actually weren't canceled, just ended as planned, eg Two and a Half Men, Parks and Recreation

God I wish Pawn Stars and shit shows like that were booted or put on another channel and bring real history back.

Yup me too. Although I read another article in the last day or so that it is in limbo if it will return. I'm not sure if this is a newer article or not. I hope it comes back cause it was funny and good plots.

Most of the others I never really cared for. I watched Bad Judge cause there was nothing else on at the time and it was sorta funny but I knew it would never make a 2nd season.

I agree, the man at least has some soul and explores with world from a different perspective than most travel programs. Unlike most that show the touristy side of travel and try to sell hotels and shit like that, Bourdain actually gives a good snap shot of the place and it's culture and people along with a good bit of history of the destination.

Those classless and soulless cunts who run that pawn shop (always a great business model based on taking advantage of people down on their luck are shit! How pathetic with the clearly staged behind the scene "banter" between those totally obnoxious and immediately forgettable characters. Now Storage Wars on the other hand...

Indeed and this pretty much parallels so-called "Social Media" which enabled every idiot with a smartphone the ability to post their every inane stupid "thought" to the world and give them the illusion that what they say actually is significant. The illusion that their pathetic life even matters.

It was the beginning of the end of civilization as we knew it...a collective retardation of mankind.

I love The Goldbergs. I love anything 80s-ish, but that show is just funny. And Modern Family too.

State of Affairs was just plain silly. The person that briefs the President on intelligence matters doesn't go on missions.

No BUT I can tell you that they were out today! My boyfriend and I were actually buying pot in a clinic a block away and that's when I can up with the idea of filling a reality tv show on that very corner of which you speak...really...if those Kardashians creatures can be found to be sellable, just think about of bunch of mentally unstable meth-head, trannies who would "work" for free just to be in front of the camera! $$$

And that is when I found out there is already interest in this topic as entertainment!

2MuchMark · 05-10-2015, 09:21 PM

One of the best shows on Television: Glad it's renewed.

A great mid-season surprise: Glad it's also renewed.

And also, The Flash is actually pretty fun (and renewed).

It's heavy on the Sci-fi but "light" on story. A decent entry for CW.
