cryowizardWhy is it that all really cool shows on TV get canceled for one reason or another?
"Sports Night", "Mind of a Married Man", "Deadwood", "Dead Like Me". Really cool shows with big ratings all of them. But something always gets in the way - egos, money, "creative differences".
I just found out that "Dead Like Me" was in fact canceled, and apparently a while ago. The show had such an interesting angle on life and was beautifully acted. And now it's done for. Well, they say they may bring it back to life on another network...I guess Showtime is only good for gay and lesbian material these days. That stuff runs on it for years.
Not to say there isn't anything at all -- at least "The Wire" on HBO is still alive, but most of the time if you want to watch something, you'll be stuck watching reruns of "Law and Order".

The show about sports - what's not to like? :)
