CBS cancelled Jericho after one season, with so many questions left unanswered. It was an awesome show. I can't believe it. What fools!

Uhhh...yeah they do. They're called ratings. If a lot of people like a show, they watch it and it shows up in the ratings. If not a lot of people like a show, they don't watch it and that shows up in the ratings.
:roll:
Yet anecdotal evidence would indicate that many here have had one or several shows they enjoyed cancelled. Is this market group anomolous? Should it not be considered because of this?
Did you try to do that. Do it, come back here, apologize. Realize that the search function sucks here.

I'm sorry, but the sample of the 500 or so people that read this forum at any given moment is not a real sample of popularity. Everyone has had a show that they've liked canceled at one time or another. Some of them have probably been really, really good shows.
The fact that a show is canceled sometimes has little to do with the quality of the show. Look at Arrested Development. It was winning Emmy's for best comedy and no one was watching it. Everyone was talking about what a great show it was, but still, no one watched it. Should they just keep making shows and losing money to please the few people that were actually watching the show?

I just searched to make you happy. This is the search link I used. It is readily available to you at the top of this (OT) forum. You should enter the word 'Jericho' in the 'All of these words' box and leave everything else the same. Don't use the little quote thingies because it might confuse you. Then hit the Enter key or click on the 'Search!' button. Your results will be in front of you.
It's like magic!
Too many people blame the search being broken as an excuse to not search at all. And you are obviously one of those lazy ones.
Whoa, whoa... what are we talking about here? Quality of shows or the nielsen rating system?
I posit that the Nielsen rating system is an inaccurate measure of quality.
Advertisers look to the ratings as a measure of VIEWERS which equals, in thier eyes, income. Nielsens are no measure of quality, and are debatably meaningful as a measure of viewers, if you read into it. Television execs, do not care what people like, which was my original point, they care what generates income. Nielsen ratings as a measure of income are debatably accurate, but not n any way a meausre of what is likeable.

Funny, because I did exactly what you said and it doesn't work. Pictars to follow, since I know you need them.

Now obviously, it doesn't work for me. It doesn't work for a lot of people. Perhaps it only works for you, because you are special.

Congrats. Perhaps, in your infinite specialness, you should realize that you should stop just blindly going around bashing people for not searching, because not everybody is as cool as you for some reason. We apologize for our laziness in not getting the search engine to work for us. Perhaps we should appeal to your higher power and PM you whenever we need a search performed and we cannot get the results ourselves.
In fact, that's what I will start doing now. Every time I need to find something, I'll PM you. Thanks in advance.

Change the "search what" to title only. Rinse and repeat.

Still no worky. I must suck at the internet. Perhaps I'll go ask Al Gore how to do it.
