Is your Favorite Show on this list? Then I’m sorry, It’s Cancelled!

Networks are putting shows on a tighter leash, the competition is fierce and attention spans are shorter. With Cable programming putting out quality, DVR’s Hulu’s and reality TV, anything can happen.  You can wake up and your favorite show can be gone.  Just like that!  If your show is on the list, I’m sorry, it will not have a “next season”.  You have my condolences.

Shout out for the list work.  It was done by a site called TV Series Finale.  It seemed like the appropriate website to get the latest information.
