ABC or the All Bad Crap network just pissed me off!!!!!!

They canceled the only good show they have in favor of reality junk. ABC exes should be horse wipped for this act of dumbness. Why canceled a great wonderfully funny show like this and keep Supernanny and home makeover? ABC must be stopped before they turn us all into mindless sheep like them! They use to be good with Perfect Strangers, Full House, Family Matters, Step by Step, Boy Meets World, Growing Pains, Roseanna, Coach, Home Improvement, and Who's the Boss. What the HELL has happen to them? Disney buys them and they turn into jackasses! I think we should boycott ABC for good, or until they start producing good show like Boston Legal again. Until then ABC is dead to me! :o

If I sound mad as HELL, that's because I'm, and for those who may tell me to come down that it's just a TV show, This was the one of the last high quility shows left. IF they get rid of the other then network TV is dead.

Please reply you hate on the All Bad Crap network here!

I couldn't agree more - Boston Legal was one of the most clever and greatest shows on TV today. it's cancellation really marked the end of a legacy for ABC. Unforunately, ABC is too worried about that all-important demo, which Boston Legal wasn't delivering. But, its ratings were still decent, and people were still watching. It really was still one of their higher-rated shows. It's sad that ABC doesn't care about quality anymore like they used to.

I'm just about done with ABC for my night time viewing. I watched Boston Legal and Eli Stone out of just enjoyment of the show. Now it seems like I just watch Grey's and Private Practice out of obligation since the writing is just so boring. I may check out Lost because it hasn't disappointed yet, but
everything else is garbage.

I don't see what the big deal is, most shows these days only run for five or six seasons. Seven to ten is pushing it. Stop complaining.

Well Boston Legal was given at least a chance to wrap up the series after 13 episodes at least. Many shows do not get that chance. The show might have been good, but it didn't deliver in the ratings the last two seasons.

The show has been on the brink of cancellation for 3 seasons now. It came very close to ending in May with no proper ending but the writers strike likely gave it a reprieve. At least it was able to have a true series finale unlike many other shows.

Very true - this last season really has been incredible quality-wise, and I do thank ABC for at least giving it half a season to wrap things up.

But even with that said, this show has never been a great performer, nor a bad performer, but a very solid performer, which was something ABC needed. Their 10pm shows haven't been the greatest this season, and this was one that could always be reliable for the network. I still think ABC made a mistake ending it.
