Title: Arrested Development may be getting the axe

CNN.com (http://edition.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/TV/11/11/television.shows.reut/)

It sucks that the show isn\'t getting picked up again. It is easily the best comedy on network TV but the ratings aren\'t there. WHY AREN\'T PEOPLE WATCHING THIS SHOW? Silver lining is that Showtime is interested in picking up the show so we may get some new episodes.

More white people acting like insecure or pretentious morons, sounds great.  Traitor.

No "may" to it. Arrested Development, Seventh Heaven and Kitchen Confidental are all gettin\' the axe. Personally, I\'m glad to see them go. I just wish they would of taken The Simpsons with \'em.

It would do a lot better on Showtime or HBO, those channels attract viewers who would enjoy this show.

It will definitely do better on HBO or Showtime.  Without a laugh track and punchlines you can see 4 miles away, a show just can\'t make it on network tv.

older ones maybe..family guy really blew them away IMO. iv never laughed as hard as many times with the simpsons that many times as i have with family guy.

i dunno why i never watched arrested development. I see it on now and then and end up changing the channel..or it turns into a commerical, change the channel and forget i was watching it.

Simpsons seasons 4-9 rocked.

Only thing I watch on TV is NFL and Conan O\'Brien.  If those aren\'t on I leave it on TCM to make me feel smarter.

I dislike all those late night shows also.

I am guilty of watching.....

NFL

Smallville ( which I hate - but feel compelled to watch)

Law & Order: SVU

My Name is Earl

Any other time, I typically flip around or play on the computer.


As for the Simpsons, I haven\'t cared for that show since I was maybe nine years old.

Hell, the only reason I watch...

Law and Order: SVU ....The cast. It makes me think of a great show called \'OZ\'.

My Name is Earl - The cast. Jason Lee is the man.

Smallville has its moments. If they killed Lana it\'d be allright.

She is, until she talks to Clark with slow music in the backround for the billionth fucking time and ruins the entire episode.

We have more in common that I thought.. :laughing: I hate Family Guy, its the same thing as Simpsons. Dont get me started on American Dad.

TV just sucks. You gain nothing from it, and learn nothing from it. I\'d be better off going to church. :laughing:
