Television shows that are being shown the doorNow that all the fall television shows have made their debut or return, the networks are putting some of them on the proverbial chopping block. There have been rumors swirling on several shows, based on ratings, behind-the-scenes hirings and firings, and just plain gossip. Here's where some of them stand. Lipstick Jungle
Entertainment Weekly says it's out; Brooke Shields says it's not true. I'm hoping it's not true only because we want Lindsay Price to have a job, because there are so few Asian-American woman on television. My Own Worst Enemy Saffron Burrows plays a psychologist, and Christian Slater plays a man with split personalities. From reviews, it seems like this show doesn't know where it wants to go. I want Saffron to stick around, but can't vouch that I watch the show myself. Pushing Daisies The rumor mill maintains that the call for 13 episodes includes a finale (and not just for this season). Star Kristin Chenoweth even commented that she wasn't too sure about its future, and if no one is telling her what's up, then I can only guess it's headed off the air. MADtv This one seems to be entirely true. Was anyone still watching this, if anyone ever was to begin with? Are any other shows you've been keeping up with heading down the same path? Perhaps Grey's will come to an untimely end. You never know with them. Submitted by on November 18, 2008 - 9:00am. |

Madtv I absolutely loved in the beginning. The original actors/cast made it what it was,but after majority of them left it pretty much went downhill from there. No,I not sad to see it leave.
Pushing Daisies
Me, too! I love it.
Chenowith is adorable.
I couldn't watch Lipstick Jungle, either. And what's bad is it's only because of Brooke Shields. She's just too annoying. Replace her, and then we'll talk.
Never heard of My Own Worst Enemy. Hmn. Maybe that's the reason it tanked?
Oh, and SNL > MAD TV. Fo' sho.

Shows going
I agree with both the above posters, MadTV was cool when it started, but I just lost intrest in it. And I find that there are so many cool shows that peopel do not get. Firefly, Dead like me, Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies, are ignored by the masses so they can get some stupid 5th grader sing some song backwards.
I was really hoping My own worst enemy would last, I have such a Crush on Mr Slater. But then he was so cool in Star Trek VI.

I thoughts.... Lipstick
I thoughts....
Lipstick Jungle is OK - it doesn't blow me away. I like all 3 actess's, but I don't see anything new in it.
Pushing Daisies - I LOVE LOVE LOVE this show, I love Kristen, and I think it's new and unique. I hope it stays on, I will miss it if it goes.
MadTV - also loved it in the beginning, I don't think they've gotten great comedic actors in the last few seasons - nothing beats Mo Collins!
Gee- do I watch too much TV??????
MadTV
I absolutely loved some of their spoofs, but I mist say, I won't miss it. Pushing Daisies? I thought that show was a huge success?? Hmmm... that's just me I guess...

Well crapspackle, that sucks! Foster's is one of the few cartoons I'll watch with my six year old brother. At least we'll still have Chowder, Flapjack, and Mighty B.

Rubbish :( I used to watch that a few years back. My favourite "kids show" guilty pleasure was always Grim and Evil though...
The closer you get to the light, the greater your shadow becomes, but don't be afraid...
I will be devastated
Ticked Off
Am I right?

One Tree Hill
Is it true that OTH is getting the axe as well? I heard it may not come back after midseason wrap up.
Equality for ALL!!
Hopefully not!
I hope it's not going off the air yet. I want Brook to get everything!
Open to all of life's possibilities...

I like One Tree Hill. I'm
I like One Tree Hill. I'm glad they didn't end it when they were going to before.
:(
It's a shame Pushin Daisies may be getting the boot - I think it's one of the most original shows out there, and I loved it - made me believe in magic again, haha. As for Fosters - DARN! I rarely got to see it, but when I did, it was very witty for a children's show - had it's moments, but all in all a pretty entertaining cartoon.
I will personally hate to
no these are some of my
no these are some of my favorite shows don't ex them
MadTV canceled? NOOOH!
Damn it! MadTV consistently made me laugh. SNL has only been touch and go to be honest. I'm going to miss their unrestrained sketches and Disney Prostitute singing.
I hope Comedy Central does decide to pick the show up. I may not have cable, but at least I could stream online.
I want to love Pushing Daisies (I loved Wonderfalls), but I'm never around when the show airs so...
Pushing Daisies can't go!
