I think they are doing the right thing by canceling it.

I agree. I couldnt watch it if it were to continue.

I don't think the shows been canceled yet. I think they just suspended production indefinately. I could be wrong because I haven't heard anything.

They should definitely cancel it. Maybe have one more episode as a tribute to him, but not sure how to write that kind of thing up. But you can't have that show with John being gone. I guess they could try to "replace" him, but that would be the worst thing they could ever do! I hope they don't even think such a thing, or if they did, the rest of the cast should walk out, regardless of contracts!

I hope they show the 3 that have been filmed before he died.

I agree they should cancel the show.....
My favorite show in the 70's was Chico and The Man, and when the star of the show, Freddie Prinze died suddenly, they decided to go on with the show and bring in a child actor to take his place.
Well, the show flopped miserably; it just wasn't the same without the star of the show. Watching the post-Freddie shows, you could sense an overwhelming sadness and emptiness in the other actor's performances. You kept expecting to see "Chico" bounding merrily onto the set like he used to do--but you knew he wouldn't...

It was just a sad charade to try and keep the show going... I won't even bring myself to watch any of the post-Freddie episodes of Chico and the Man.
Out of respect for John, I'm glad they are considering cancelling the show.
