LOST!
Daisys, good news by castle4	Feb 11th, 2008 07:26:44 PM
At least one of those is worth watching.
Yeah, this is good news... by Frank Black	Feb 11th, 2008 07:30:03 PM
...now let us know when Life is coming back!!! Life is the most underrated new show to come along in a long time.
Lost wasn't on in the fall. by therobcat	Feb 11th, 2008 07:31:52 PM
I checked. Wasn't there. It's here now though, so don't worry.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO by Pipple	Feb 11th, 2008 07:42:11 PM
What are they out of their damn minds? Damn you Ugly Fatty, Samantha Poo, Scrubs 2, Brothers fucking sisters... Damn you to hell!
Samantha Who? Bundy, of course. by johnnyangel	Feb 11th, 2008 07:44:34 PM
Loves me some Kelly Bundy. I like evil Samantha, too.
Thank God for Dirty Sexy Money... by DanielKurland	Feb 11th, 2008 07:49:24 PM
Glad to see Daisies, but I was expecting to see Daisies renewed. Dirty Sexy Money continued to get more and more interesting each week, and always radically change the relationships between the characters in a natural way. Very pleased with where it was heading, and somehow, Krause is the least interesting character on it.
What ?.........No Cavemen for next year? by Jugdish	Feb 11th, 2008 07:49:59 PM
NNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Good for Lost and Dasies by Z 008	Feb 11th, 2008 07:50:59 PM
I don't care about the rest, at all.
Scrubs getting its ending 100% woohoo by StuckInthePresentPaused	Feb 11th, 2008 07:53:29 PM
well im prety sure the title says it all but Scrubs is definitely getting their series finale question is will it air, will they put it as never b4 seen on the season set or will they screw us release the season as epsidoes aired and then the last 6 on sepaate dvd
The facts are these... by br1947	Feb 11th, 2008 07:58:33 PM
Pushing Daisies renewed! CSI: Dr Seuss gets season 2! Awesome!
Great, when will we see them? by skywalkerfamily	Feb 11th, 2008 08:07:54 PM
Aren't the writers on strike?
Now that the strike is apparently over, will there be any more s by JackIsLost	Feb 11th, 2008 08:10:06 PM
this season or do we have to wait until next season? I am particularly concerned about LOST but I would also love to see some more DAISIES episodes. I know they've been on strike for 4 months but surely they've been writing in the meantime, ready for the moment when this nonsense finally ended. At least, I hope they have some episodes ready to go into production. Otherwise, it's going to be a long, dry season...

the rest of that crap can piss off for all i care...
Lost & Daisies... by Cheif Brody	Feb 11th, 2008 08:37:16 PM
All I needed to know. Now...if they could just get them on the same night....it would make my TV viewing easier. Speaking of ABC...I saw a report on World News Now late last nite that was detailing "the Casualties of the Writer's Strike"...Like how 24 will not be getting any new episodes until 2009...but they also said Bionic Woman was cancelled. Not that I'm a fan...but did I miss that memo here on Coaxial? Considering how much bandwidth was devoted to that crapfest here at AICN...I thought there would be SOME mention of its passing.
Like they would cancel LOST... by Bob Loblaw Law Blog	Feb 11th, 2008 08:56:35 PM
after already telling us the number of episodes we have left in the series. You know... unless ABC execs want millions of LOST fans out to murder them. Hey Node32774... can you give us a link to said article with Lindelof?!?!
Never you mind... by Bob Loblaw Law Blog	Feb 11th, 2008 08:58:48 PM
here's the Lindelof article: http://tinyurl.com/yp6dht
The question is...when will LOST be back? by Kirbymanly	Feb 11th, 2008 08:59:40 PM
after the 8 episodes are over?
Very happy about Daisies! by Eaglet1138	Feb 11th, 2008 09:07:11 PM
While I'm not terribly surprised about anything on the list (Grey's Anatomy? Seriously?), I am glad to know that Daisies will be coming back next year. That's a show that really came into its own near the end of the season.
"...deep into the summer," by Eaglet1138	Feb 11th, 2008 09:13:03 PM
Lindelof says ""I'd be surprised if the network wanted to air episodes deep into the summer." Huh? Airing 16 episodes back-to-back would finish the show on May 15. The show has finished the week of May 22 most often. I know, because that's the week of my birthday, so I don't forget it. Not exactly 'deep into the summer,' it's more like late spring. I'm hoping Lindelof is just trying to not jump the gun before ABC makes a decision, but if they think they can have episode nine ready the week after episode eight airs, or even after a week 'hiatus,' there's no reason we won't get the entire planned 16 episode fourth season.
Gray's Anatomy is the new ER by skywalkerfamily	Feb 11th, 2008 09:21:59 PM
it will run for about 100 years.
Except ER... by Bob Loblaw Law Blog	Feb 11th, 2008 09:26:58 PM
is actually a good show, even now (thanks John Stamos!). Grey's Anatomy is like "Dawson's Creek" for grownups.
I would rehash my thoughts of Lost's remaining episodes... by Cheif Brody	Feb 11th, 2008 09:29:23 PM
But I have already done so over in the Lost "It Doesn't Scatter Quite Right" node....please check it out over there...I haven't the strength to type it out again here.
Did anyone else know Damon Lindelof wrote for a really bad... by JackIsLost	Feb 11th, 2008 09:45:03 PM
show on MTV called "Undressed" which was basically grade-Z softcore porn? I love LOST and all but I just think it's kind of funny...
P.S. "It doesn't scatter quite right"... by JackIsLost	Feb 11th, 2008 09:45:53 PM
would've been a great line on UNDRESSED.
Damon on Undressed by Eaglet1138	Feb 11th, 2008 10:00:15 PM
Haven't you ever taken a job that you knew wasn't up to your full potential, but you still needed money to pay for your apartment? Yeah, writers take jobs too. Now, Undressed wasn't horrible, but no, it's not LOST quality. But notice that he was just an occasional writer on Undressed, whereas he's a showrunner on LOST. He didn't have the control over Undressed that he has on LOST, and I think we can all see the difference.
No Boston Legal on that list. by Pennsy	Feb 11th, 2008 10:17:08 PM
Yet, at least. Dare we hope it goes bye-bye?
Gay's Anatomy is the new Melrose Place! by Zardoz	Feb 11th, 2008 10:37:31 PM
A that show only women and homos watch! (That and Private Practice.)
Now, NBC needs to make an announcement by gotilk	Feb 11th, 2008 10:41:18 PM
that it's renewing Journeyman.
Ummm...where is Boston Legal? by zillabeast	Feb 11th, 2008 10:50:33 PM
doh....
Okay. by SkidMarkedUndies	Feb 11th, 2008 10:58:02 PM
Now when do they start shooting?
herc, you gonna give the nutheads a jericho tb? by bacci40	Feb 11th, 2008 11:35:49 PM
cuz this i gotta see...thanks for the leak cbs, funniest 3 hours on tv yet.
oh, and this season is basically done by bacci40	Feb 11th, 2008 11:39:00 PM
at the most, a dramatic series can put out 3-4 more epis...comedies can push out a little more...but the studios do not want the season to go into the summer months (not sure why, but thats why i cant make the big bux)
rip steve gerber by bacci40	Feb 11th, 2008 11:42:58 PM
fuck me...will god please stop taking the good ones? wanna talk a good comic book writer...steve was it...and a hell of a nice guy...shit...i really am crying
SISTERS? the show from the 90's with those chicks? by Bob C. Cock	Feb 12th, 2008 12:15:03 AM
wow, thanks abc!
Dirty Sexy Money? by CatVutt	Feb 12th, 2008 12:22:43 AM
Wow. I've been pretty much on the same wavelength with DK for a lot of shows, but we're POLAR opposites on this one. For me, the more the thing's gone on, the more it has lost its way. The dynamic with the twins was very interesting, so what did they do? Split them up. The whole 'I don't want her to know I have money' crap is right out of a dull cartoon, the 'revelation' of who Dutch's other kid was, might have been surprising to exactly one person living somewhere in Idaho...Blair Underwood's character is all plot and no 'character' at all...I stopped watching. Virtually every plot thread became completely predictable.
Glad about Dirty Sexy Money... by Mr. Profit	Feb 12th, 2008 06:10:49 AM
I like how essentially it's a soap, but the characters are all well written and the acting is pretty solid. Its the most underrated show on their schedule. Don't get why it doesnt have a better lead in. It would have flowed better after Grey's Anatomy. Its also odd how similar William Baldwin looks and acts like Alec on 30 Rock. My brother got confused.
And if Grey's Anatomy returns this season... by Mr. Profit	Feb 12th, 2008 06:18:57 AM
Lost should NOT be treated like crap and given a shitty timeslot. Put it on after dancing with the hasbeens on Mondays or have it follow Grey's Anatomy. Don't put it against Idol ABC.
Lost is back - no surprise, BUT... by Abin Sur	Feb 12th, 2008 06:53:31 AM
I'd like to know how many more episodes we get this season (TV Guide estimates 6 more will be produced) and if we'll get more than the 16 episodes for the next two seasons (if they short us two eps this year, we most definitely should get 17 eps for seasons 5 and 6). I wanna know!
LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC by turketron	Feb 12th, 2008 08:52:41 AM
LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC LOST IS ALL THAT MATTERS ON ABC Search your heart. You know it to be true.
Be honest by Big Jim	Feb 12th, 2008 10:59:03 AM
Did anyone read all of that? Once it got to the show descriptions I skimmed. I too ask "what about Boston Legal"? Will it be back? Right now I am on the fence as to whether I will continue to watch if it comes back. I don't think I've enjoyed a single episode this year (not to the degree I used to enjoy it). It is becoming a parody of itself. The revolving cast door is worse than ER's. And I can't stand the latest lawyer to join. In her introductory scene I said, with contempt, "isn't she sassy!".
Cancel Private Practice by Big Jim	Feb 12th, 2008 11:00:15 AM
and put Lost on twice a week!
