Hawaii 5-0? How is that a new series if at most they have a new cast?

Dirk Ziggler 05-24-2010 05:28 AM

Don't even know what half this shit is.

Juan 05-24-2010 05:32 AM

If Law & Order: Los Angeles gets canceled, it's your ass, thedamndest

My thoughts exactly, outside of LA I don't recognize any of thee. I mean "The Defenders"? Is that an adaption from the comic or what? Also, especially with the recent dismissal of the original show, I'm rooting for LA to prosper, even though it's already of shaky ground (outside of CI and SVU, no other spin-off had avoided cancellation).

El Tigre 05-24-2010 02:44 PM

Alright, just did some research and no it isn't, The Defenders seems to be just another law show. It sounds a lot like Raising the Bar, still don't know why that show was canceled, Mark-Paul Gosselaar was really good in it.

thedamndest 05-24-2010 03:28 PM

You don't recognize them because none of them are on tv yet.

ClockShot 05-24-2010 04:16 PM

NCIS: L.A. will stick around. Daniela Ruah is nice to watch and Linda Hunt is funny.

Fuck Fox. I hope all the new shows get axed. House is the only great thing going for that network.

McLegend 05-24-2010 05:42 PM

I think fans of Glee will have a problem with that statement.

I completely disagree. Fringe is fantastic as well, and Family Guy is quite entertaining.

People love Glee as well.

Droford 05-25-2010 08:33 PM

I hope Nikita gets canned before it ever airs, fuck CW for a La Femme Nikita remake. (THIS IS MY OFFICIAL PICK)

Shit My Dad says probably will be the first CBS show to get canned just because of the title and the fact that Shatner won't be able to carry it.

On FOX, Lonestar looks pretty good and Wilde/Hope are pretty much the same show so either of them..

Outsourced on NBC probably gets canned..

As for ABC, I have no idea.

Jeritron 05-25-2010 08:38 PM

It must be a mid-season show. I didn't do any of those.

Jeritron 05-25-2010 09:24 PM

I'm going to have to research this before I make any predictions. I'm tempted to list Hawaii 5.0 as canceled, but I don't want to because Jin is going to be on it and for that sentimental reason I will root for it.

thedamndest 05-25-2010 09:30 PM

That is pretty much the only reason I picked it as not being canceled. I was surprised that I found myself not instantly voting for canceled on Jim Belushi's new show.

There are so many cop and legal shows this year. I don't think there are any new medical shows. ABC isn't even attempting to hide their Undercover Boss rip-off in Secret Millionaire.

Jeritron 05-25-2010 09:33 PM

I hate most TV shows so much I'm tempted to peg them all as canceled and scurry back to the Lost thread

Jeritron 05-25-2010 09:35 PM

With Carell likely leaving The Office after next season, it will probably be ending it's run. Or at least it should, instead of trying to keep going and fail.
Once that finale wraps up, I may have to consider turning in my cable box.

Is this based on the book/guy with the twitter account? 'Cause some of those are hilarious.

thedamndest 05-25-2010 09:39 PM

I went with the method of "Would my dad watch this?" If the answer was maybe I picked "Still Around."

Yes it is but the trailer for the show isn't very funny and it's hard to make a 22 minute television show out of 140 words. Plus it's a CBS sit-com and those are hit and miss as it is.

CSL 05-25-2010 09:44 PM

Yeah, I was just wondering if it was based on it with the title. Doubt I'll even watch it, can't be doing with William Shatner.

What's so wrong about remaking La Femme Nikita?

I'm all for it. As long as the lead actress is smokin hot who cares?

Jeritron 05-25-2010 09:50 PM

Wasn't the original TV show a remake or sequel to a movie anyways?

Jeritron 05-25-2010 09:51 PM

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikita

thedamndest 05-25-2010 09:55 PM

Point of No Return is part of the Action Four Pack also featuring Eraser, The Last Boy Scout, and Passenger 57.

McLegend 05-25-2010 09:58 PM

Yes it was originally a movie. I actually didn't realize that La Femme Nikita went on for 4 years and had nearly 100 episodes.

Still remaking Nikita is still a good idea. I'm interested.


Mind you I still think it is going to get cancelled.

Droford 05-27-2010 03:43 AM

Well I think its a terrible idea cause I liked the 90's remake so much. Wasnt a fan of the original movie.

Secret Millionaire has been running here for quite some time and it's decent. I thought it had already had one series in the US back in 2008? Undercover Boss is more of a rip off of Secret Millionaire to be honest, if you can even call it a rip off.

thedamndest 05-27-2010 01:31 PM

Are you thinking of Joe Millionaire?

thedamndest 05-27-2010 01:32 PM

Oh wow, it exist back in 2008. Didn't remember that at all. Good call.

Jeritron 05-27-2010 01:35 PM

I guess it really was a secret millionaire

Corporate CockSnogger 05-27-2010 02:57 PM

I was hoping Hellcats would be some badass Thundercats style show with some half human/half cat mutants causing chaos. Turns out it's about cheerleaders...






















EVEN BETTER!!

Loose Cannon 06-17-2010 06:02 PM

The Event follows Sean Walker (Jason Ritter) who investigates the mysterious disappearance of his fiancée and ends up uncovering the biggest cover-up in U.S. history, involving an assassination plot against U.S. President (Blair Underwood).

------------------------------------------------------------------

hmmm, seems like a remake of one of my fav shows here

Loose Cannon 06-17-2010 06:03 PM

sorry Sean Walker; you are no Jack Bauer

thedamndest 06-17-2010 06:33 PM

You can watch trailers for every show at the respective network websites.

The Mackem 06-18-2010 06:58 AM

I know nothing about it but Mike and Molly seems certain to be cancelled.
