Celtic Guardian 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2005 Joan got replaced by a show that's a direct rip-off of Medium. They ignored a 7,000 signature petition, and a massive write-in campaign from devoted loyal fans. The show ended on this big cliffhanger that's never going to be resolved. I already miss it. :-( "I think talking to ghosts may skew younger than talking to God." - CBS chairman Leslie Moonves Whether of not "Joan of Arcadia" deserved to be renewed, the quote above illustrates a complete disconnect between the entertainment industry and mainstream America on matters of faith and spirtuality. It's appalling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob_barron 0 Report post Posted May 18, 2005 I nominate Bob Barron to be TSM's offical TV reporter. Dude knows everything. I visit the futoncritic and mediaweek everyday. What can say, I'm addicted. CBS is making ridicilous profits on everything right now that adding two hours of original programming wouldn't hurt its bottom line at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's appalling. CBS is getting way too cocky. Last season, they cancelled the Guardian even though that show was doing well. They did the same thing to do the District too. I think CBS' reign will end in about 3-4 years when CSI and Without a Trace start showing their age, and people in general start getting tired of procedurals.

It was cancelled so CBS could directly ripoff Medium, but with Jennifer Love Hewitt and celebrate as they attempt to lose the tag that CBS is for old people. What I'm saying is that they have two hours of TV of just reruns and since they are making so much money, and Joan has a very loyal and devoted fan base, why not give it another season and see what they can come up with.

CSI:NY did well, but I don't think it did as well as CBS hoped, and the buzz started to wear off on it pretty quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo Effect 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2005 I guess UPN has given up on Thursdays? In their minds, they've decided to revitalize their line-up as a whole. Friday nights used to belong to Star Trek and a rerun of some sort, while Smackdown hit its plateau a long time ago. You can't place comedies on Friday night because ABC and NBC has that market cornered. So in theory it makes sense to throw some comedies out on Thursday that will garner much the same ratings as Smackdown, and then move Smackdown to Friday, which will garner the same ratings most likely. Actually, if anything, the ratings may just rise. Little kids are stuck at home on Friday nights with parents who don't care if they television until late.

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted May 19, 2005 It's funny that Smackdown got bumped for random UPN comedies. They probably won't match Smackdown's ratings, because the people that still watch are loyal enough to watch Smackdown over everything else. I doubt many are so loyal to UPN's comedies.
