fall tv season predictions?

[nageov3t]

now that new shows are starting to roll out, any predictions on how bad the blood bath is going to be?

my predictions for shows that will be canceled, looking mostly at just the big networks...

-every fox sitcom (though back to you looks like it might be funny)
-bionic woman (pilot was a total yaaawn fest)
-cavemen
-friday night lights (did badly enough it's first season, there's no way it'll survive a second year of the friday night graveyard)
-k-ville
-samantha who
-the simpsons (hey, a guy can dream )

The list looks good, but I think bionic woman is the least likely prediction to come true.

I have a bad feeling about aliens in america and kid nation. They just seem to be asking for stupid, ignorance-based controversies that result in cancellation to me.

Not sure about Life. I like the lead actor a lot but it might get lost in the mix.

Pushing Daisies is getting so much acclaim it surely will have really low ratings.

It looks like The IT Crowd is already dead.

They fired Jessica St. Clair and haven't recast her yet. They were picked up for a midseason but they've only produced the pilot and haven't started production on the other episodes. Word is the new NBC president isn't a big fan of the show.

I predict that this will be another good season (like last year) for reading and listening to my stereo.

i predict i'll keep watching "non-network" shows
dirty jobs
deadliest catch
survivorman
man vs wild
history channel stuff
TLC stuff
ninja warrior

K-Ville - Actors suck
Back to You - no pull
Gossip Girl - another josh schwartz drama destined to be laden with jewish boys and failure.
The Big Bang Theory - so horrible it hurts, dunno how it even made it to pilot
Las Vegas (IDK how it has made it this far) - no plot, no continuity, tits can only take u so far
Aliens in America - looks weak
Cavemen - horrible premise
Pushing Daisies - looks weak
Carpoolers - weak actors
Life is Wild - family drama interracial blah blah
Women's Murder Club - belongs on lifetime
Samantha Who - premise won't last, formulaic comedy
Bionic Woman - actors are atrocious, plot was pathetic, execution completely lacking, utter failure.

I was looking forward to K-Ville, although mainly because of the guy from The Shield.

I'm going to give that one a serious look for the same reason.

Cavemen is going to be a sure fire flop. You can't stretch that premise out for more than 30 seconds at a time.

I totally want to see Dirty Sexy Money fail. I'm sick of the "Sex and The City - male edition" premise already just from the commercials!

 

[hdeck]

pretty much any show i get into is destined to be canceled, just like last season

I predict that 2 shows will make the cut and the rest will be cancelled, half after their first week. Network executives will still fail to realize that people don't bother to watch these shows because they know they'll be cancelled anyway. The two shows that don't get cancelled will be ones that should have been.

They'll just can all the new shows and replace them with reality tv - costs less and makes more money.

I'm still waiting for Liberty City Survivor.

I think it could've been better, but the directing was just horrible. The show tended to cut away from the action so much it's like getting blue-balled over and over again. Also, the show won't work without a representative for the fat nerds .

Kinda sad... I like the British version and they even brought Moss over.

I thought the same thing, but then I watched the pilot (available on the net).

I think it may actually last more than a few episodes.
