CBS Breaks More Genre Fans Hearts
I would not want to be an exec at the Tiffany Network right now. If Jericho fans send peanuts, I don’t even want to know what Moonlight fans are going to send. Sci-fi, horror and fantasy fans are always on pins and needles this time of year but 2008 has been harsher than normal.
Canning Jericho and Moonlight in the same season is going to move CBS to the top of fans’ hit lists, past perennial culprit Fox. Congrats guys, you dodged the New Amsterdam bullet thanks to CBS who has volunteered to take some heat for you.
I can’t wait to see what other exciting, innovative shows CBS has in store for us. I loved Jericho’s replacement show, Secret Talents of the Stars. If you missed it, well, you were just like everyone else with a television in America.

That’s too bad about Moonlight but to be honest, I haven’t watched CBS since the cancelled Jericho. From now on, if a network doesn’t listen to the viewers and cancels the really good shows, I cancel the network. I actually took part in two Nielsen ratings surveys and to be honest, they wanted you to pick any show durning a time slot even if you weren’t watching TV at that time. They wanted to know what you “might” watch in that time slot if you were home or had the TV on. Their surveys are so misleading that it’s a wonder more good shows are not cancelled.

MOONLIGHT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN CANCELLED. MAKES YOU WONDER WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON CBS. I HAVE BEEN FAN OF A LOT OF SHOW ON CBS. I NO LONGER WATCH CBS SINCE THEY CANCELLATION OF MY FAVORITE SHOW “MOONLIGHT”. THEY CAN’T FEED US FANS BULL AND EXPECT US JUST TO SAY OK. THE BEST NEW SHOW AND THE PERFECT CAST JUST THROWED AWAY BECAUSE THEY(CBS) ONLY WANTED ACTOR-CENTRIC ALEX O’LOUGHLIN. MR O’LOUGHLIN IS TALENT AND I WISH HIM A VERY SUCCESSFUL CAREER AND MUCH LUCK WITH CBS. DONNA GILLIAM
