    Just the other day, my wife and I were talking about the two new shows that we started watching this fall, Blindspot and Minority Report, and agreed that we were about ready to give up on Blindspot but both really liked Minority Report and thought that it was a show that we could enjoy watching for a long time.

    What happens? A few days later, Blindspot gets extended for a full season run, while Minority Report gets its episodes cut from 13 to 10, meaning not only is it going to be cancelled, there will only be 7 more left.

    I swear that me liking a show is the ultimate kiss of death.

    That's probably more a result of NBC not having much to replace Blindspot with, and Fox not giving a show a long enough time to find an audience (something that they have done repeatedly over the years).

    Please do not start watching Person of Interest, Walking Dead, Modern Family, or iZombie. I really want those shows to stick around.

    Thank you!!!!

    As long as Sarah Shahi comes back it's all good. Not sure why they would want to push a love story with her and Root on POI, but what can we do?

    LOL, trust me, I will never, ever watch a show involving zombies. I've seen a few episodes of Modern Family on reruns, and I guess I don't "get it". No interest. Barely aware of Person of Interest. Is it on CBS? Ignore anything there except football.

    I know. Another in a long line with FOX. The greenlight some of the best shows on TV, and then yank them away quickly. Ultimate tease network.

    That is why I do not watch a Fox show until after the season is over.

    Well, some of the short season shows are still among my favorites of all time. I'm the kind of guy who dreams of what might have been.

    Well, amazingly, none of the full season shows that I watch were cancelled this year! First time thats happened in many years. However, I am down to watching only five shows, and one of those (Bones) is confirmed to be ending after next year. After looking at the fall lineups, there are exactly zero new shows coming in the fall that I'm interested in also.
