TV and Movies

I watched one episode and that was enough. Bad writing and the acting is no better. It's more than deserving of cancelation.

I liked the show, so of course it was cancelled, I'm the kiss of death!

CBS must really be having money problems.

I suppose you've heard by now that Blue Bloods was renewed for another season ... HOWEVER ... in order to do so, the entire cast & crew had to agree to a TWENTY FIVE PERCENT PAY CUT. 

All of them had to accept it ... and they did.  

Personally, with all the money that flows through the entertainment biz (TV, music, movies, dvd sales, etc) I think that stinks.

JMO, of course.

Aw gee, I'm really disappointed to hear that!  My son and I were both really enjoying every episode so far.  I didn't start out watching because of Jimmy Smits, so I wasn't disappointed that he isn't the lead.  It would be nice if this show does get picked up by another network. 

But since Will Trent has been renewed, I can't complain.  I'm really hooked on that show.

I see there was some mention of True Lies earlier on. Boy, did that one stink. At least I thought so. A dumb premise and badly executed. I like Steve Howey and had they not saddled his character with the wife (she was just annoying) and kids (completely unappealing) it might have had legs. As it was, just no way.

How disappointing!!  Loved this show -- well written, excellent acting and multi-dimensional characters.  Particularly a fan of Amanda Warren who managed to balance both strength and compassion while portraying her role as Deputy Inspector.

I liked True Lies, so that is in the eye of the beholder. There are so many "dumb" shows on that continually get renewed.

Absolutely in the eyes of the beholder, which is why I was sure to include 'at least I thought so', and I did. Do agree, though, on the many, many shows that go on forever but really shouldn't, again, in my opinion...

I just saw a commercial for the show stating the finale is Sunday. No mention of series or season finale, just finale.

At least the show ended with no casualties.
