TV shows you would love to see get cancelled

[WakingTheMisery]

Self-explanatory.

Family Guy would be #1.

[the secret wars]

Oh this is a good thread haha.
I'd say My Name Is Earl.

[elemenohpe]

any of those 1-2 season designer/makeover shows.

anything on lifetime.

CSI.

EDIT: That's a badass avatar dude. I'm so pumped for Watchmen.

[JesusV2]

2 and a half men
One Tree Hill

[BroekHosen]

Ugly Betty.

[WakingTheMisery]

Thank you sir! Yours is as bad ass as ever. :-)

[AbeLurkin]

anything on MTV that isn't music related.

[elemenohpe]

30 Rock

you've got to be fucking kidding me...

[elemenohpe]

anything on MTV that isn't music related.

so... commercials will be left?

fuck, i'd rather watch made

[the secret wars]

30 Rock
Scrubs (if it is still on)

i don't agree with either of these haha.
but yes, scrubs is still on. they moved to ABC.

[Chancetobe]

I think it's time for Smallville to dissapear. Also, any reality show with a creepy premise on a no-name network that is the butt of jokes on the Soup.

[the secret wars]

so... commercials will be left?

fuck, i'd rather watch made

wtf? lol nothing on mtv is music related anymore
sex with mom & dad? parental control? the hills?

[Chancetobe]

One Tree Hill
Very much agreed. After the first season, this show got ridiculous.
Ugly Betty.

30 Rock
Scrubs (if it is still on)

Couldn't disagree more.

[mrzippo3]

Frank TV. This guy is going on tour soon too.. who is actually watching this crap?

[Smash Adams]

According to Jim
I keep feeling like this show is off the air but nope it has been on the air for 7 years and apparently people still watch it

[elemenohpe]

wtf? lol nothing on mtv is music related anymore

that was my point... if you take their programming out that isn't music related you'll be left with nothing but commercials.

[PepsiOne]

Kath and Kim.

[elemenohpe]

Frank TV. This guy is going on tour soon too.. who is actually watching this crap?

seriously. that show needs to go.

also, big bang theory. fuck that show.

Kath and Kim.

ehhh... i'm waiting this one out. it has it's moments and i'm optimistic it'll grow into a regularly entertaining show but... i doubt it.

[caLLmEnOoNe]

family guy
charm school

[percussionguita]

Any show that has "of Love" in the title on VH1.

[Renee]

I think it's time for Smallville to dissapear. Also, any reality show with a creepy premise on a no-name network that is the butt of jokes on the Soup.
But then there wouldn't be anything for the Soup to make fun of.




Talent search shows.

[ThisIsNotDan]

as much as I love it...I hope The Office gets cancelled after this season or next. honestly, season 3 (maybe season 2) was the pinnacle and as much as I like it, it's not getting any better.

oh and other than that I agree with Family Guy (quickly going down the shitter) and American Dad (that show is one of the worst I've seen)

[micahistheballs]

According to Jim
I keep feeling like this show is off the air but nope it has been on the air for 7 years and apparently people still watch it
I thought that went off the air at least two years back. Crazy

[ThisIsNotDan]

how could no one have said The Simpsons yet? that show hasn't been good in god knows how long. it's painful to watch nowadays

[onemoresong]

the hills

[elemenohpe]

i disagree with absolutely everything you said.

granted, the office is in a slump right now but i think post-writer's strike material will continually get better. just like it took season 1-3 to pick up like it did.

family guy has been better lately. the newest season has stopped relying on stupid character crutches as much (ie: Evil Monkey, Ollie The Weatherman, chicken fights, etc...) and has begun to focus on stories with heavy references that don't carry too far from the story, just like their peaks in season 2-3.

american dad is also slowely getting better and better. i thought it should've been cancelled after the first season but, it's managed to turn around and become more appealing with very direct main stories that mock a particular style and having a side-story more similar to season 1-2 main plots, linear and predictable.

i'm optimistic that all will get better, and even if they don't improve... all these shows will still be better than most on tv.

[chokeychicken]

i know a lot of people have said family guy, but this season has actually been really, really funny. the aside from that, the last 2-3 seasons have not been. at all.

i want to see chuck get canceled.

[elemenohpe]

i know a lot of people have said family guy, but this season has actually been really, really funny. the aside from that, the last 2-3 seasons have not been. at all.

thank. you.

fair enough, but I just can't see The Office getting much better than it has been in the past. every show has its peak and personally I think it has reached its peak, but only time will tell I guess. I would just hope that the creators have enough sense to end the show before it starts to actually suck.

Every odd episode or so I have caught of the latest Family Guy season just seems like more of the same with odd tangents and digressions from the actual story. granted I have a soft spot for that show but it just seems to be getting worse for me.

American Dad though just isn't my bag at all. it comes off as trying too hard to be funny, but I give respect for actually giving a good response instead of the "you're an idiot, I'm right" quip that I would normally get.

[ThisIsNotDan]

Man, I'm glad everyone turned this from shows YOU WOULD LOVE to see get canceled into who is wrong/right.


Fuck off.

when did it turn into this? I must've missed that. nothing hostile is happening

[williek311]

The Big Bang Theory
House of Paynes

[Smash Adams]

. . .

I don't think that's being negative, I mean if I said Ludacris was my favorite rapper and you said fuck you he sucks I wouldn't be offended

[ActionActionFan]

According to Jim
I keep feeling like this show is off the air but nope it has been on the air for 7 years and apparently people still watch it

I like According to Jim. It is pretty entertaining.

Grey's Anatomy
House
Desperate Housewives

[Hojonny]

Frank TV
The Sarah Connor Chronicles
American Dad

[ActionActionFan]

I like a lot of shows listed here. :shrug:

[ThisIsNotDan]

. . .

well of course not everyone is going to disagree with everything. it would be boring if this thread was made, people listed their choices, and that was it. no one in here is being that elitist dude shitting on everyone for choosing which shows they wanted off

[DJscratchNsniff]

that "bad day' or "worst day ever' or whatever it's called

[make_this_hurt]

RABBLE RABBLE RABBLEEEEEEEEe

[KarolaBloch]

Frank TV
American Idol - #1 choice
All shows like So you think you can dance, know the lyrics, all that shit.
All new sitcoms suck.
Survivor
The Colbert Report

[jnnlopez]

Every dance or singing show.
Frank Tv
Grey's Anatomy
Anything on Vh1
Two and a Half Men
Private Practice
Ugly Betty(I just can't stand it.)
All I can think of now.

[ThisIsNotDan]

oh man how did I not even think of American Idol or Survivor? wow yeah those too

[elemenohpe]

. . .

yeah, and as you can see from my reply to ThisIsNotDan's post. i can defend my opinion rather than being a pissy poster and just saying fuck you. if you have a problem with what i said, post what's so bad about 30 rock... i'm up for discussion.

maybe i should've been a little more descriptive with my reply instead of you've got to be fucking kidding me but, based on all the shows critical priase, obviously amazing reception of the show (based on ratings and the exponentially increasing popularity of tina fey since the debut of the series), and the popularity of season 1 dvd sales (season 2 has already moved a fiar amount of units compared to other tv show DVDs also) that it would be obvious you're in the minority thinking the show should be cancelled. [/runon sentence]

[Chancetobe]

. . .
I wouldn't really call that hostile. It's just disagreeing. No one made any personal attacks on your or anything.

[Kassie09]

The Office.

[drudo182]

Two-And-A-Half Men, please.

[drudo182]

30 Rock
Scrubs (if it is still on)

LOL.

If you want something cancelled, at least have the knowledge if it's on TV or not...

And

30 Rock is the funniest show on TV. Done.

[SockMonkeyRiot]

HGTV really needs to consolidate some of their "fix up a house to sell" shows

[Smash Adams]

Two-And-A-Half Men, please.

good one, that show is just a series of 22 minute cliches and bad dialogue

[drudo182]

good one, that show is just a series of 22 minute cliches and bad dialogue

It's pathetic. I can't stand Charlie Sheen either.

[Kif]

Weeds, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. It used to be a black comedy about a mother who sold weed. Now it's way more serious, and about heroin and immigrant hookers. Show needs to be put down.

[Kid B]

The Amazing Race.
American Dad

I would say The Biggest Loser, but hey if it's helping people lose weight then I'm all for it.

[Kid B]

Two-And-A-Half Men, please.
This too. And Will and Grace.

[PoisonInMyVeins]

grey's anatomy, the office (i used to love it, but it's just not good anymore), the hills, and every other dumb primetime show that the people at my school love.

[alltimehoe93]

I think it's time for Smallville to dissapear. Also, any reality show with a creepy premise on a no-name network that is the butt of jokes on the Soup.
thank you.
exactly what she said.

[Renee]

This too. And Will and Grace.
Will & Grace ended in 2006.

[WakingTheMisery]

Weeds, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. It used to be a black comedy about a mother who sold weed. Now it's way more serious, and about heroin and immigrant hookers. Show needs to be put down.

WTF REALLY? I loved the first three season but I don't have Showtime at school so I missed this one. I knew that moving out would be bad but I did not see that coming at all.

[Kid B]

Will & Grace ended in 2006.
Good.

[LamarVannoy]

Two-And-A-Half Men, please.
yes! how the hell has this show not been cancelled yet?

[alltimehoe93]

yes! how the hell has this show not been cancelled yet?
that is a wonderful question.

Survivor
The Colbert Report

Really? Not being a dick but I'd like to know your reasoning for that. I pretty much agree with you on the rest of your post.

[WakingTheMisery]

Yeah, I hate Tina Fey and 30 Rock.

[cahrishurr]

30 Rock
The Sarah Silverman Show
Chocolate News

[WakingTheMisery]

I agree with those whole heartedly.

[itsmesean0630]

The Sarah Silverman Program
Frank TV
Mind of Mencia
House of Payne
American Idol
Grey's Anatomy
Gossip Girl

that's all I can think of right now.

[porttheman]

kath and kim

[fallout1819]

Grey's Anatomy (and that spin-off... I think Private Practice?)
Two and a Half Men.
Ugly Betty.
Nip/Tuck (it used to be good, the first two seasons were decent but after that it started blowing).

[WakingTheMisery]

Nip/Tuck has potential to come back and be good this season IMO.

[jawstheme]

Self-explanatory.

Family Guy would be #1.

The first post was the best.

[airik625]

Nip/Tuck has potential to come back and be good this season IMO.

I sure hope so. I'll watch it regardless though.

[fistofaphoto]

Networks should narrow down their crime dramas, way too many out their. They are always getting decent ratings, so who can blame them.
The dancing and singing shows do not interest me so I would personally cancel them.
Desperate Housewives would be a definite cancellation.
30 Rock and Saturday Night Live is a definite cancellation.
Otherwise, I have no real beef with any of these shows. I just will turn the channel.

I'm surprised at some of the "two and a half men" and "Big Bang Theory" cancellation suggestions. They are consistently in the top 3 of most watched shows on network television (Behind Dancing With the Stars) between the ages of 18-49 on Monday's and Big Bang Theory is starting to grow it's rating every week. Both of which I have been watching since they have premiered and are my 2 favorite comedies on television.

[Metfan615]

This.

[Kif]

I loved those other 3 seasons too. Season 3 was awesome since there were like 3 or 4 new characters, and I liked watching them all. This season though... I still have the last 2 episodes and don't feel like watching them at all.

[nevets]

I know what you mean, but the last 2 episodes are probably the best 2 in the whole season. Worth checking out but yes, overall this season has been sub-par

[Mirrorsandfevers]

A lot of things mentioned in this thread.
I really hope Niptuck picks up when it comes back.

[MADSTA]

The fucking Hills. And also any show of that ilk.

One Tree Hill should have ended with their graduation, none of this five years later bullshit.

wow..... saturday night live is a ball-zy pick. I dont know If i want it to be cancelled...cant it just be better again?

[domotime2]

Entourage....... yeah I said it, and i mean it.

[andrewshungry]

Self-explanatory.

Family Guy would be #1.

I get so much shit when I tell people that Family Guy isn't funny. then I watch it with them and they barely laugh the entire time, then still claim its good. The funniest parts are the obscure pop culture references that its main fan base doesn't even understand. It's fucking ridiculous.

hmmm well, ha I think its equally ridiculous when I hear people dont think family guy, simpsons, south park is funny "anymore" or whatever....

i still find the show to be randomly clever....and they still spit out timeless characters and jokes constantly. the Germany episode was one of my favorite in a while.....maybe people in virginia just have a different sense of humor....

[TheOtherAndrew]

Nancy Grace
Glenn Beck
Hannity and Colmes
Countdown with Keith Olbermann
The O'Reilly Factor

I think you get the pattern here.

Also
Two and a Half Men
Every Comedy Central original except The Daily Show/Colbert. Yes, that includes South Park. That show needs to end already.
American Dad
Family Guy
The Cleveland Show (I'm calling it now)
Frank TV

Not 30 Rock.

[JustSway]

CSI and its various incarnations.
Greys Anatomy
Eastenders & Coronation Street
Come Dine With Me

[Roboman]

I love 30 Rock and can't imagine why anyone would like to see it get canceled.

I'd have to say American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance?, and just all of those stupid "reality" tryout talent shows. I can't watch them. Oh yeah, and any show that is like The OC, The Hills or whatever. They're just disgusting.

[demondays524]

Testees.
Hands down worst show on TV.

[ActorInThisPlay]

American Idol
Dancing with the Stars
Survivor
most every other reality show
Gossip Girl
The Hills
any other stupid teen soap opera

You're just pissed because it took IASIP's second episode spot.

entourage has been BAD this season.

Family Guy
American dad
American Idol
Dancing with the Stars
Ugly Betty

[OldJersey]

entourage has been BAD this season.

Really? Me and my friends are pretty much all in agreement that it is one of the better seasons, certainly better than last season.

[demondays524]

You're just pissed because it took IASIP's second episode spot.

Not really, no.
Testees is just horrible.

[patpratt]

Really? Me and my friends are pretty much all in agreement that it is one of the better seasons, certainly better than last season.

I just feel like nothing ever actually happens ya know? It takes them an entire season to deal with one thing. It's frustrating to watch, imo

[Chancetobe]

entourage has been BAD this season.
Your insane. Entourage is never bad. Best season, maybe not, but, far from BAD. Although, I hear you about nothing ever happening.

[patpratt]

Your insane. Entourage is never bad. Best season, maybe not, but, far from BAD. Although, I hear you about nothing ever happening.

i guess that's my biggest gripe. I still love Ari, but I find that I really...don't care about what happens to the rest of them. Except maybe E.

[domotime2]

if you people want to see shows like family guy and south park get cancelled....then i really dont understand what you want from comedies? 24/7 always sunny in philadelphia, even that show has a few bad episodes now and then. Its remarkable that both shows can still come up with funny material after all these years. And yes family guy this year has been Fine...ive been laughing at every episode.


i hate entourage....i said it again.

[JakeOff946]

30 Rock
Scrubs (if it is still on)
Any of those FOX cartoons that grownups think it is cool to watch because they make fart jokes and say "damn".

why would you take tracy morgan away from me again.
i love scrubs, but if you don't even know if its still on, then why would you even care

wtf? lol nothing on mtv is music related anymore
sex with mom & dad? parental control? the hills?

you gotta get mtv jams dude, like mtv3, only better they play nothing but music videos...except its the same god damn 7 videos all day for a week.

how could no one have said The Simpsons yet? that show hasn't been good in god knows how long. it's painful to watch nowadays

respectfully disagree that its been bad over the years the debarted (a season or two ago) was awesome, its done now because the halloween episode this year was just god awful.

Man, I'm glad everyone turned this from shows YOU WOULD LOVE to see get canceled into who is wrong/right.


Fuck off.

you got yelled at in an ap.net forum...what did you think was gonna happen especially with those two shows, for god sakes scrubs news gets posted by tate on the front page.

I like a lot of shows listed here. :shrug:

me too man

well of course not everyone is going to disagree with everything. it would be boring if this thread was made, people listed their choices, and that was it. no one in here is being that elitist dude shitting on everyone for choosing which shows they wanted off

nobody comes to the forums to be like " i totally agree with you, i bet your mother is a smart sophisticated beautiful lady, have a great day! : )"

i hate entourage....i said it again.

I don't expect the same things from Family Guy that I expect from say The Office so besides the occasional joke that's taken too far, do they really need to devote 3 minutes of a 20 minute program to a single song?, I'm generally not disappointed

[stayillogical]

Grey's Anatomy has become such a joke. It's hysterical.

[Chancetobe]

i guess that's my biggest gripe. I still love Ari, but I find that I really...don't care about what happens to the rest of them. Except maybe E.
I kind of can't stand Drama, and Turtle is annoying. But, I always care about what happens to Vince, E, Ari, and my all time favorite character... Lloyd.

You make it sound as if that Family Guy and South Park are doing no wrong and if you don't like them then you're nitpicking. There are far better comedies on television than those two shows. They stopped being funny a while ago, hence the idea that they should be cancelled

[aaron401]

i love degrassi, but it is getting too ridiculous and needs to be cancelled:(

You make it sound as if that Family Guy and South Park are doing no wrong and if you don't like them then you're nitpicking. There are far better comedies on television than those two shows. They stopped being funny a while ago, hence the idea that they should be cancelled
they CANT do no wrong...at least not to my eyes.


this season of family guy and south park have been just as funny as previous seasons. like ive mentioned, the Go the Germany episode i think was a classic. and as far as south park goes, i think this season ranks up their as one of the best.

And I mean, i guess "funny" is clearly subjective because other than family guy, south park, simpsons, daily show kind of stuff, and always sunny.... i dont find any other shows to be on their level of humor. Ive watched the Office, Scrubs and thought "ha...funny"...but the shows that I find funny, I actually find myself laughing, quoting, and mentioning for months to come.

[domotime2]

the cow goes, "SHAZZZOOOOOOOO" haha.

[Matt008]

The Hills.. and any reality show on VH1 that they keep churning up

[patpratt]

I kind of can't stand Drama, and Turtle is annoying. But, I always care about what happens to Vince, E, Ari, and my all time favorite character... Lloyd.

I agree about Drama and Turtle. Love Ari and E and sometimes Vince annoys me with how childish he can be. There's no question that Lloyd is someone whom I love. I'm not afraid to admit it.

[c_rob2700]

Every "reality" show on MTV minus the RRRW Challenges

SVU hasn't gone down the shitter yet. The original is probably going to end this or next season. The casting has gotten horrid. They can't keep a character.

Its not that they are bad television, its that there are a thousand of them and USA and networks alike show them constantly which means they aren't showing better stuff.

I'm going to add local news too. Worthless.

[doyouhas?]

The Office.

im tired of getting trapped in a million conversations about a show i dont watch.
