Okay, okay, I'll update this thing!

I've been asked by a few friends "Where are your blog updates?" so I figured it was time to update this thing. Here's my problem. I don't have many nice things to say about TV these days!

I'm pissed that ABC canceled Dirty Sexy Money, Pushing Daisies, and Eli Stone and never bothered to give us even a tiny bit of closure. Why the hell did I waste my time watching any of them? Right now, I'm so pissed at ABC I refuse to watch Castle even though I've heard it is pretty good and I love Nathan Fillion (have you seen him in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog? Fab U Lous!)

I'm pissed at NBC for canceling My Own Worst Enemy, and, again, no closure. Why? It's like reading half a book that you like a lot, then having someone rip it in half and destroy the last half. And there are no more copies of the book anywhere on earth.

So, I'm sticking with the only show I know will get some closure. Lost. Finally, this season, we are getting some answers. I think putting a definitive end on the show was the best thing that could have happened to it. Now the producers and writers know they can start giving us answers. Of course, with every answer we get more questions, but none of that matters. Because after every episode, I am counting down the hours until the next. They even took a character I didn't care about too much either way (Juliet) and turned her relationship with Sawyer into my new favorite television pairing (okay, Coach Taylor and Mrs. T will always be my absolute number one, but James/Juliet are a close second). Then stupid Kate has to show up and ….oh, who knows what will happen. But the best thing is, something will happen, and it won't be years down the road! Because Lost is ending and we all know it and the writers are writing towards that end. And I just know it will all be worth it. Because I won't have half a stupid book in my hands.

I agree with you. I too am glad Lost has an end date so I know I'll get the ending. I rarely watch new shows anymore as I know they're going to go away and leave me hanging - which I know doesn't help them but I do it anyway. My "new" show this year is Bones :) I watched all the old episodes online to catch up to this season. I'm also liking seeing the old cast of ER and am looking forward to tonight's episode.

I don't know what I'll do when Lost ends!

And I'm SO PISSED that Dirty, Sexy was cancelled. It was GREAT. The networks are idiots.

I just read that ABC will air the last episodes of Dirty Sexy Money, Pushing Daisies, and Eli Stone on Saturdays during the summer. At least that's some good news
