Another sitcom I like bites the dust, that's two Mel Gibson shows gone this season, and both of them I liked

I Started an Online petition to keep ABC From Cancelling it. I Know these things never work, But it won't hurt to try.

I think the show was cancelled because it was getting sub-par ratings, and wasn't owned by ABC/Disney/Touchstone.

Had it been a Touchstone series, I think they would have been pleased enough with the ratings to keep it on the air.

As much as I like the majority of ABC's sitcoms.... I just have a feeling that they'll keep them on the air until the 5 season mark, where they will get back the money from having sub-par ratings in the form of syndication.

I think the main reason for the cancelation was proven the past two weeks. There was a big drop from 8 Simple Rules to Complete Savages. Now, with double 8 Simple Rules, the 8:30 encore has a MUCH MUCH better retention of 8pm. Also, Hope & Faith has a better lead-in and has hit a season high this past Friday. As did Less Than Perfect.

CS was good.... but I'd rather see 8SR and LTP survive.

I agree, 8SR has really come into it's own this season, the show keeps getting better and better, and Less Than Perfect is my favorite TGIF show

LTP is ABC's best sitcom IMO.

It sure is, I can't think of a bad episode of LTP. Some people have said that LTP reminds them of Wings, it does to me in a way

I can see that. It definately has a Wings/Murphy Brown feel to it. Most likely because it's the only workplace comedy on TV. Other than Scrubs, but that's a rare exception.
