PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Deathwatch - The Clock is Already Ticking For..." |
Webby mentioned keeping a deathwatch a while back. We've done it different ways, including having people guess which shows would die first, etc. I'm going to start this thread as a way we can keep track of news on the death or potential demise of the new fall shows.I've already got news on two shows, so I'll reply to this post with the name of each show in the subject line. Then we could just keep replying to those posts as more info becomes available.

2. "Kidnapped" |
Per today's Ask Ausiello column on TVGuide Online:Question: I'm such a huge fan of Kidnapped. Do you see it lasting for a full season? — MelanieJo Ausiello: Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I just got word that the show is essentially dead. Producers have been told to finish making 13 episodes, and then stop. On the bright side, another Reunion this is not. They had a contingency plan in place that lets them wrap up the mystery by then. http://www.tvguide.com/News-Views/Columnists/Ask-Ausiello/default.aspx

7. "The Class swaps time periods with How I Met Your Mother" |
Apparently CBS is hoping that having Mother as it's lead-in will boost Class' ratings. If that doesn't work, my guess is that it will be gone.

10. "RE: Vanished moving to Fridays" |
*sigh* Dark Angel was such a good show until they started messing with it trying to get viewers.

11. "Shows off life support and breathing on their own, and other news" |
These shows had full seasons ordered (Zap2it article in my paper):CBS
The Unit
The New Adventures of Old Christine NBC
Heroes Other News:
ABC
Holding off on "The Knights of Prosperity" Was supposed to start 10/19 and be on Tuesdays at 9. May still be a midseason replacement Fox
All new shows to return after World Series, but some are getting moved around. Justice will move to 9 pm after Prison Break.
Standoff will be Tues at 8 with House after it.
Trading Spouses will move to Friday (9 pm after it's two hour season opener) with Vanished (at 8 pm) I'm glad Justice is moving. That 9 pm Weds slot was too loaded with too many shows I wanted to watch. It may get a chance on Mondays. They may be getting ready to move these guys to the ICU:
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
Runaway
Friday Night Lights
Six Degrees. Jerico and Heros seem to be stable, but The Nine's vitals are not looking so good.
It's a tribe creation!

14. "Twenty Good Years" |
LAST EDITED ON 10-30-06 AT 08:18 AM (EST)I'm not a sitcom gal, so I can't comment.... No more Twenty Good Years. The horrible NBC sitcom starring John Lithgow and Jeffrey Tambor has been pulled off the air. Thank you, NBC! 30 Rock survives and has been moved to Thursday nights where it will be paired with the return of Scrubs Nov. 16. It will also be super-sized that night, so maybe they'll call it 40 Rock, or Alec Baldwin will be taller. From Canoe article that says November sweeps are a dud.

28. "RE: Justice" |
This was one of the few new shows that I did like. Too bad they couldn't have found a timeslot that would work for it.

26. "Six Degrees" |
Shelved until January. No episodes during November sweeps is not a good sign.

31. "Daybreak" |
ABC is shuffling its deck chairs once again, pulling both Wednesday newcomers "Show Me the Money" and "Day Break" from its schedule effective immediately.The network is expected to stream the seven remaining episodes of "Break" on ABC.com. The news marks the Alphabet's first official cancellations of the 2006-07 season. Still sitting on the shelf, but technically alive are "Extreme Makeover" (three episodes yet to air), "Help Me Help You" (four), "The Nine" (six) and "Six Degrees" (seven). Link. Too disappointed to speak.

32. "OC on Fox." |
http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/01/04/tv.the.oc.canceled.ap/index.html "The O.C.," the once-hot teenage soap opera that saw its ratings plummet like a delinquent student's grades, has been canceled. The final episode of the drama will air 9 p.m. EST Thursday, February 22, Fox TV and Warner Bros. Television Production Inc. said Wednesday. The finale "will deliver real closure to the series, to the story we began telling four years ago," series creator Josh Schwartz said in a statement. "It will be fun and emotional and I think really satisfying. It is the finale we always planned to do." 
It's a tribe creation!
