With main characters leaving I also suspect that House and SVU only have one more season in them, although you never know how they are going to reinvent themselves I suppose.
 
Disappointed about Mr Sunshine, thought it was OK and could very easily get better the next season.

Another show that fails for a Friends cast. Cougar Town is still around but thats just crap.
 
This is more organized then the other thread.

Disappointed No Ordinary Family and Breaking In was cancelled, not surprised about Outsourced, Perfect Couples, Shit My Dad Says, The Event and The Cape (was so bad). My parents watched Human Target, caught the last few episodes, watched it mainly for Janet Montgomery.
 
The day Game of Thrones is on this list is the day I stop watching TV. Or rather the day I stop watching TV-shows on my computer.

The one that bothers me right now is Stargate Universe. Right as it was getting good as well! Some of the ones on that list, like Smallville or V, I stopped watching because the quality declined (or maybe it wasn't there to begin with, with V. And The Event, of course).

But god damnit I still want to see how The 4400 ends. And all the other good, canceled shows.
 
I was wondering when Numb3rs was going to be canceled but it apparently was a while ago. I enjoyed the first series but drifted away in the second.
 
One Tree Hill is gonna have its last season. Went downhill since the two leads left. :(
 
OTH went awful when they stopped focusing on Basketball and it just became yet another soapy High School show.......the blue print for success is FNL....never lost it's focus on the Sport and still had the soapy stuff. But was strong throughout.

Party Down, Lights Out and Terriers terrible losses though, all good shows. Shame. Most of the others cancelled are awful, Big Love and Entourage are pretty bad now too so good for them to go.
 
I don't care about anything other than No Ordinary Family. Only new show I enjoyed this year.

Well, apart from GoT obviously.

To be fair to House, many people thought that the show was going downhill after they decided to replace Chase, Foreman and Cameron with the new team. Still it turned out alright. Maybe they have something up their sleeves if Cuddy does leave.
 
Quite funny that V and The Event both ended with things that would have probably kept them alive had they occurred far earlier.

I suppose it depends on what you classify as success. One Tree Hill is on its ninth season I believe. Friday Night Lights only made it 5. Obviously different networks and circumstances. I've only seen a few episodes of FNL and don't watch One Tree Hill at all.
 
I like "In Treatment" it would be a shame if that ends. I think "Community" has jumped the shark, the finale to this season was a two parter involving paint ball fighting, pathetic really. The first season was laugh out loud funny but it's massively deteriorated this season, don't know why I still watch it really!
 
Entourage has been fecking wank for a while now. I like Sasha Grey naked on screen but the past two seasons were utter wank.
