Drew Carey (oh please let this stupid unfunny show get canceled!!)
George Lopez (the guy is annoying as hell)

CBS-
Don't watch this network

NBC-
Good Morning Miami (I just hate it)
Hidden Hills (it was stupid I didn't like it)

WB-
Sabrina the Teenage Witch (this show is done I don't think it's funny anymore)
Greetings From Tucson (well since it's not on air and it has low ratings I'm sure it's canceled)
Do Over (that kid on the show annoyed I hope it's canceled)
Dawson's Creek (yep it's canceled already)
Angel (don't count on it being canceled yet)

FOX-
That 70's Show

Life With Bonnie got renewed for another season, along with George and Drew. Sorry.

Sabrina just got cancelled along with Dawson. Angel and Do Over I think got cancelled, and Greetings From Tucson hasnt though. And when you said "its not on air". It is. Last night, they just removed it to make room for "Grounded For Life"

FOX-
That 70's Show

Renewed for 2003-2004, and I think a 2004-2005 season.

Anna4 · 03-01-2003, 02:57 PM

WB

1. Do Over- Dips to far below its already weak lead in Family Affair.
2. Family Afair- Doesnt start the night off strongly.
3. Greetings From Tuscon- Dipps to far below its Reba Lead in.
4. Dawsons Creek- Already cancelled after seven seasons.
5. Angel- On the fence and still slipping.

FOX

1. Fastlane- Even with a new timeslot failed to increase ratings.
2. John Doe- Not a ratings hit by any means.
3. Cedric The Entertainer- Can't hold on to lead in.

UPN

1. Abby- Not funny and it shows in the ratings, constanly last place in it's time slot and can't hold on to Buffy The Vampire Slayer Lead in. Even a repeat of UPN's cycling repeats of The Parkers, Half and Half, One on One and Girlfriends manage to notch a higher rating than an original episode of Abby.
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer- Already cancelled after seven Seasons

NBC

1. In- Laws-Cancelled but no official announcement yet.
2. Hidden Hills- Cancelled but no official announcement yet.
3. A.U.S.A.- Dipps considerably from eroding Frasier Lead in.
4. Scrubs- Pulled from the sweeps is not a good sign as NBC shows it doesn't have much faith in it. For the first time not airing after Friends, when it was moved to 9:30pm one night ratings dropped considerably which showed that it only benefits from Friends lead in and cannot be watched on its own merits.
5. Mister Sterling- Still winning its time period but floundering in the ratings.
6. American Dreams- Slipping each week.

I agree with Fastlane. John Doe is actually doing okay, it's been the best Friday FOX show in years. Cedric the Entertainer used to have like a 90+% lead in from Bernie Mac! I dont know now though.

This is cancelled???

I agree!!!! Friends really helps. Scrubs really has no Thursday night "speciality" in it.

Surprisingly, it got picked up for 25 episodes this season

Also, do you guys think "What I Like About You" will return for another season?

Anna4 · 03-01-2003, 04:49 PM

I think What I Like About You will not get renewed, its always the lowest rated of all the 4 sitcoms on The WB Friday night and they rarely advertise for it.

*PinkLady* · 03-01-2003, 09:28 PM

I hardly watch any of these shows, so I'll explain the ones I know.

WB-
"Sabrina the Teenage Witch" [declining] - I agree. I used to like this show, but it's gone through waaay too many changes.
"Greetings From Tucson" [low retention rate] - Absolutely the unfunniest show I have ever watched.
"Do Over" [low ratings] - I kind of liked it.
"Family Affair" - Isn't it supposed to be a ripoff of the other one?
"Dawson's Creek" - I hate this show. It's the last season anyway.
"Grounded For Life" [FOX cancelled it, so maybe WB will too] - It's a funny show. I don't know why no one wants to keep it.

What is "Abby"? I've never even heard of it.

UPN comedy that airs after Buffy on Tuesday nights. It isn't funny I don't like it.

Anna4 · 03-02-2003, 12:08 AM

And i hate it when the commercials for Abby say "Red hot comedy" and "See why America Loves Abby". Oh yea right

I know lol sorry fans but the actress who plays Abby acts too goofy. I saw the episode with her mother because it looked funny, it wasn't, Abby just annoyed me.

ClassicComedyFan2 · 03-02-2003, 11:01 AM

Sabrina's been canned? Pity.

I really, really hope that "Frasier" goes in for another season. Also, I'm glad "Enterprise" is on for another season

Oh, yeah, let's hope "America's Funniest Home Videos" comes back.

And, of course, "The Simpsons" will return.

And, "Family Affair" would go back to back well with the planned remake of "Courtship of Eddie's Father" under development. ("Family Affair" is an ok show)

Chocoholic · 03-02-2003, 08:46 PM

I hope Scrubs comes back. It's such a fresh and funny show and it's one of the few shows I currently watch.

I hope Andy Richter Controls the Universe comes back too, but it will probably be cancelled.

I'm disappointed that Presidio Med was cancelled. I thought it had some potential.

I think it's time for Everybody Loves Raymond to go. I've always liked it, but I think it has gotten very dull, repetitive, and mean-spirited. I still watch, but only if I'm home and I have nothing else to do.

ER needs to be taken off life support, stat! Still watch it though.

Ed also needs to be put out of its misery.

The Simpsons is renewed until at least the end of the 16th season.

I thought Scrubs was doing well, doesn't it have good ratings?

I agree I hate Everbody Loves Raymond but lets face it CBS is stupid, they will never cancel it

.

I love The Simpsons I hope it goes on to it's 20th season

Scrubs is doing well. I'm sure it will stay around. It's certainly better than that tired Frasier and that unfunny Friends, IMHO.

I hope The Simpsons goes into its 20th season too
