when i first saw it on eTC, i think it was the second episode, i was immediately hooked. then i learned it was a David Crane creation, who is one of the makers of Friends, and that just made it more interesting. i wasn't able to follow it weekly, but i'd catch an episode every now and then during the weekends. and just last weekend, i saw a cliffhanger episode and i know i just can't wait anymore. mapet "provided" me with a copy of the first season last thursday. now i'm done watching all 19 episodes.
obviously, i loved it. the cast is great. similar to Friends, there wasn't just one protagonist, rather there's 8 (which became 7) of them. i think the idea was original. and you can totally relate to all of the characters. and it was funny, really funny.
which is why i am crushed and depressed.
in my excitement for the second season, the first thing i did today was to search online when it will be starting. and what i learned is that just last May 15, CBS decided to cancel it. i really want to cry.
apparently, it won the People's Choice Awards for Best New Comedy Series but the ratings were not that great. and CBS said it was affecting the ratings of How I Met Your Mother (which i also liked but now I HATE). and that they'd rather keep New Adventures of Old Christine rather than it. DAMN YOU CBS!!!
i wonder if there's still hope that it'll be picked up again. i wish though i know it's unlikely. all i can do now is to ask all of you, my friends, to watch it too. watch and see how great it is. and just remember it existed. *cry*

thats the way it goes..
ReplyDeleteif you get hook to watching all the new shows in september, and you get hooked to one of them, just hope that your choice is everyone elses too.
i liked commander in chief with geena davis. she even won an emmy midstream through the first season. and would you believe it, they cancelled it 3/4s into the season.
suggest you watch heroes(nbc), 24(fox), lost(abc) and battlestar gallactica(sci-fi channel although they recently announced that this would be its final season) which are pretty good too.
sige tseri, pahiram ng copy para mapanood ko din. ;)
ReplyDeletei felt the same thing before nung hindi na-pickup for a second season yung Birds of Prey (starring Ashley Scott) saka yung John Doe (starring Dominic Purcell of Prison Break). it really happens na kahit maganda yung story and concept ng isang series, minsan hindi pa rin sya nagugustuhan ng public.
