The Networks Aren't the Only Ones Cancelling Shows

Turns out, I can do it too! Me, the dood who watches way too much tv and loves his DVR just a little bit more than he should. Now the question is, what did I cut, and why?

Pushing Daisies - ABC - Good, funny, smart show. However, it feels way too repetitious to me. When that is the case, the background story needs to be great. And, well, it's just not.

Life - NBC - When your DVR gets to 5 episodes of a show and you haven't watched them, then you probably just don't like it that much. That's where I am with it. It is a show I should like, but I guess I just don't.

My Own Worst Enemy - NBC - After the premier I really thought I would add this to my rotation. After two episodes, I had to cut it. I like Christian Slater. I like the premise of a guy with two lives. I just don't have time for it.

I also have shows in danger of being cut...

CSI Miami - CBS - Again, repetitious and the back story doesn't grab me anymore. Even if Jessie from Saved By the Bell is a recurring character. Only problem is that she is someone else on CSI and not Jessie. Too bad.

Legend of the Seeker - Syndication - Love the Sword of Truth books its based on, but they are getting too far from the books after just 3 episodes.

A friend of mine from college wrote up a humorous piece about how CSI was so repititious a couple of years ago, and I still remember it because I thought it was so funny. Check it out here, maybe you'll get a good laugh out of it too.
