 AK>  The New TV Season So Far

I pretty much a few years ago DROPPED adding any new shows to " 'my' lineup" of
 shows, especially from the US5.

I am sick and tired of this get all hooked on a show, and YANK! They can it
because some dolt 19 year old doesn't watch! I might come back to some stuff if
 they put 3 years in the can, and a renewal for a 4th/5th is signed, and
irrevocable! So in other words, not likely!


I am down to like 4.5-5hours TOTAL among the US5..  NBC, and CW have ZERO! Fox
has 1 hour, and it goes away this year since Bones ends. ABC is down to 30
minutes... and I wouldn't be surprised if that goes away.

I actually watch more stuff from ITV, BBC, CBC, Global etc. than I do from the
US5 combined!  Things like Private Eyes from Global, and now Shoot the
Messenger from CBC.. National Treasure from ITV or is ch4?

TNT and TBS basically self canceled themselves.. with either the filth they run
 or canceling shows or the shows just totally going off the rails ie: Last Ship
 killed off Mitra and the other hotties.. so CLICK! Deleted! It had left the
reservation (the book its based on) so to speak any way.

US TV is in a sad, very sad state, especially the US5.. how many comicdorq
shows are there??? How ever many that is too many x10! Not into comics, never
was... I liked Batman, and we did that in the 60's! Or reruns for me! :) If we
need a Batman show in the air, then dust off the prints, and show them!

I'll give shows from the non US5 a chance ie: House of Cards, since I ran
through the UK originals all 3, before HoC...Same with Night of, aka Criminal
Case (2 UK seasons)... Bron/Broen!! The Tunnel which is a UK/FR remake of
Bron/Broen, and is EXCELLENT! 800 Words from NZ! Another A++++/11-10!

Just finished DCI Banks current season, and that they killed off one of the
hotties! NOT COOOL!!!!!! Think of it as the Bond Girl Effect... you want to
seem me  click delete on a show... kill off my girls!!!! :(

I doubt in 2 years I will be watching anything from the US5....and I sample
tons of stuff from the other sources and delete more than I keep...Bosch and
Man in the High Castle, along with Longmire are some of the ones at the top of
the list..
