Mate it gets worse. I have season 2 of Arrested development, ordered it from the states etc, anyway there is a season 3 currently being produced, with 12 episodes only.

Fox decided to axe this show due to ratings, dispite its total of 7 emmys, 5 of which it gained in its first season. I think you must admit that fox marketing don't know what their doing half the time.

It had the feel to it, like it had been filmed by some home movie enthusiast, you know how some shows just have this thing about them when you watch them? Channel 7 used to always screw around with stargate, too

you're joking!? can't believe they'd drop it- it's an awesome show- hop they give it time to wrap up rather than just stop it- I hate it when they do that to shows- that officially never have an ending. Definately my favorite show.

Miss Ned and Stacey too...

As an avid comedy channel watcher i can assure you they could not have plugged that show harder. But god - it's brilliant, such a shame it gets a bum wrap on network and pay tv.

Season 5 is going to be the last season of Alias. Very sad to see it go.

I miss A-team and original dukes of hazard, luckily my Pop before he died taped nearly every episode they ever made. Too bad they are mixed up in about 200 video cassettes with old war movies, macgyver, kingswood country (there was another good one). I'll get around to sorting and stuff soon.
The best part was that he watched them all and paused recording during ads, so no ads. (not like that was a problem seeing in those days we only had 2 or 3, not 28)

Micallif Tonight was a great show, so much better than Rove live. Now theres one show they can axe and I'll throw a street party.

Yeah 8 simples rules is one I wish didn't get cancelled, show wasn't that good but Kaley Cuoco is ИИИИing hot. I think what should be cancelled is Mcloeds Daughters, whoever is making that in Aus is retarded, I see the ads for it and think I can't wait to miss that one. Apparently they're isn't even any more Mcloeds on it any more.

Battlestar Galactica, released 2003 UK.

Survived one season on TEN, now dropped. Pity.

Sci Fi shows do not rate so they say, but I'd like a dedicated SciFi channel as the yanks have.

Can only handle so much un-reality TV, I saw one epidsoe once, can't recall it.

They found a long lost McLeod - the housekeeper's daughter is now a McLeod.

Anyone remember Chips? US motorbike cop show with Erik Estrada in it. I loved that as a kid.

I loved the original Dukes of Hazzard too - and reruns of Kingswood Country now would be a hoot.

I was just reading in the paper that the stations are going to have to cut their budget for locally produced shows, and one that looks like it will (finally) be going is Blue Heelers.
But since I don't actually watch that much tv, I really don't care.

Agreed on both counts. Shauns uses "dry humour", its like a serious matter-of-fact funny, whereas Rove's is like pun-ny, very cringeworthy. Rove's humour gets very old very fast.

Oh I would pay just to watch just one episode of (Totally) Full Frontal or Micallif Tonight again

I guess you were either a Full Frontal person or a Late Show person... I was a late show person.
