Fall Television Cancelations
My Picks for the First Five Cancelled Shows
So with that in mind I want to make my predicitions on what shows will get the axe first.
Cavemen - Come on. Do we really need to see a thirty minute Geico Commercial. Joe was funny online, funny in the commercial, but not thirty minutes of funny. I find the show to be trying way to hard and the whole make a "man-date" concept pretty week. this is definately going to be this years "Smith."
Journeyman - Right next to heroes I couldn't imagine a show like this would fail, but it does. I can not sit through a single episode. I wanted to like it, heck i wanted it to be appointment television, but I just can not get into a show about a time traveler.
K-Ville - You know if they wanted to give this show the chance it deserves, why, oh why would they put it up next to heroes. I love the concept, but even after shuffling it through multiple nights it is just not the ratings powerhouse that it was hyped to be. It's touching a at times raw. I love the cast, but it's going to end up being this years "Justice." Shame on you Fox for ruining another great show by putting it on the wrong night.
Bionic Woman - I wanted to like this one. I really did. I love the original, but I just never bought it.
The Big Bang Theory - What is it with CBS these days. they think that we will really by a hot girl hanging out with boys who drink juice boxes. this show was given so much commercial time I felt like they thought it was going to be the next Seinfeld. No one is watching it. No one cares. Send the main characters to get a hair cut and new wardrobe, and I still don't think people would watch.
Well those are my picks for the worst of 2007. Only time will tell if I am on the money, or if "The Bg bang Theory" really is the next "Seinfeld."

Post a CommentCaveman...such a stupid idea! I never watched it, but I'm glad I don't have to see commercials for it anymore!
I like Journeyman and Bionic Woman. I haven't watched the others. I hope they don't cancel either of them. The rest? Don't really care. Good Article though.
Journeyman's Kevin McKidd was so much better in HBO's Rome!
Interesting list. I will not watch Cave Men (is it still on?) and am hoping that no one else will - of course that begs the question of what crappy show will replace it... I wanted to like Journeyman too; I liked the premise, but my reaction to the show was the same as yours. Good job!
Interesting list. I heard a lot of hype about Caveman but really I don't watch much TV so guess I am not missing anything.
Great article! From the moment I heard that the commercial Cavemen were getting their own TV show, I groaned. I'm fairly certain that one will be cancelled. And like you, I really wanted to like Journeyman, but no matter how hard I tried to like it, I just couldn't. A severe disappointment.
:)
Never heard of cavemen
I couldn't get through even half of Cavemen. Horrible idea to make that into a show. You should do a followup during the season letting us know how you did.
I agree with your assertions after maving seem most of these.
