Cancelled shows of Tomorrow: The War on Chuck Lorre - Part 9

[Jordacar]

Rise Cancelled

Aw damn, I was honestly planning to catch up on that one.

Alex Inc

Enjoyed this one all the way thru (especially Tiya Sircar, plz put her in more things), even though the writing was on the wall almost from the start.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I thought they announced Inhuman's cancellation months ago. Guess not.

 

[Teelie]

Not officially. Everyone just assumed rightly so it was canceled after that disasterous pilot episode killed any hopes it would be good.

 

[RockSP]

The Crossing Cancelled

Aww...I liked that one. Ah well.

 

[Marvolo]

Is it just that time of year, or are there a historic number of popular shows getting canceled right now? Feels like a lot.

Definitely feels that way.

 

[Drizzle]

By the way, whatever happened to that show Ghosted? Its name is appropriate since it disappeared from the schedule back in January and nobody's heard anything since. I can't really see FOX holding on to that if it ditched B99, Last Man on Earth and The Mick.

I almost forgot about that show. I actually like it. Apparently Craig Robinson said last month it's gonna return in late summer.

 

[rashad]

The bloodbath continues!!

Scorpion Cancelled
Superior Donuts Cancelled
9JKL Cancelled
Live Biblically Cancelled

 

[Teelie]

And it isn't done yet. We're still waiting to see how a number of other series are going to fare, like Agents of Shield, though I think they are probably getting renewed. ABC hasn't got anything I can think of to replace it with.

 

[chamber-music]

Either television has become insanely competitive lately or TV execs have unrealistic expectations for these shows.

 

[Sithborg]

Yeah, pretty certain Gotham is done. And for some reason we haven't heard about Ghosted yet.

 

[_Superman_]

They better not cancel iZombie.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

iZombie was renewed.

 

[terry78]

I enjoyed Scorpion, ****ing cliffhanger.

Fox Cancellations Explained: Why So Many Shows Got the Ax

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/l...-nine-lucifer-last-man-earth-canceled-1110659

So, what's behind the bloodshed? To put it simply: The network's deal with the NFL for Thursday Night Football, which will take over more than 30 hours of space on Fox's already truncated schedule as the network, unlike ABC, NBC and CBS, does not program the 10 p.m. hour. (What's more, Fox also has rights to Major League Baseball postseason games, including the World Series.)

So I guess half hour shows are easier to fit in

 

[Sithborg]

Except that a lot of what Fox cancelled were half hour shows.

 

[chamber-music]

Thanos is running the program schedule for networks now

 

[Drizzle]

All these cancellations make me feel like we're shifting into the beginning of the end of scripted shows on network TV. In the end, all that will be standing are The Simpsons and Family Guy because Fox will never let those die, the Law and Order shows because those will still be around long after we're all gone, and anything produced by Shonda Rhimes or Chuck f***ing Lorre because they both have contracts with Satan.

 

[Teelie]

Thanos is running the program schedule for networks now

That should win the thread. It sounds accurate.

 

[terry78]

When I'm done, half of the schedule will still exist. I hope they remember you......Lucifer.

They probably can't compete with Netflix and HBO.

 

[MadVillainy]

And even Shonda Rhimes has made the jump to Netflix for her next projects.

 

[squeekness]

I thought Ryan Murphy has gone to Netflix as well.

Kevin Can Wait Cancelled

I thought Ryan Murphy has gone to Netflix as well.

Him too
