Hi,
Was Queer Eye for the Straight Girl cancelled and Queer Eye British Edition?

Bravo is being tight lipped about their cancellations. My best guess is that they are on hiatus until the Fall and will be re-launched to try and get an audience. If they aren't back by October though - they are gone.

Q. What happened to the new Ving Rhames crime show "Kojak" that aired on the USA Network? will that revival version of the classic 70's Telly Savalas cop show return soon?

The new Kojak is slated to return this Fall. Cable nets are much different than the broadcast networks - Their schedules seem to be all over the place and unpredictable. At least USA isn't like HBO in that respect - where shows don't return for more than a year...

I'm trying to think of a show that might have been on FOX. It didn't last too long. It was about a young business man who had a really nice apartment, but slept naked in a cardboard box at night. He was a psychopath who acted normal in front of people, and he got revenge on people who crossed him. I think his name was Chaz. I know this isn't much, any ideas? Thanks.......Clark

Hmmm. Anyone know?

I was just on your website and read unfortunte news that Blind Justice was in fact cancelled. Do you know where Ron Eldard will be doing next. I really think that is a wonderful actor and enjoy watching him. I did like the show, but I also felt like it was missing something. Please let me thanks- ML in NY

Check http://www.imdb.com for his profile. He is starring in a movie called "Freedomland" with Samuel L. Jackson and Julianne Moore that is in production now - according to IMDB.

I did not see "To Have and To Hold" listed. It aired on CBS and was about a couple just newly married and he was a police officer and she was an attorney. His family was Irish and he had three brothers, two were also cops and the other one was a firefighter. This was a great romantic cop show! I believe it lasted for once season. Starred Jason Beghe, Moira Kelly, Jason Wiles, and Stephen Lee. (1998)

I also did not see "Turks" listed. It also aired on CBS. It was about a family of cops and the hardship of having a normal family life. This to was also a great show. I also believe it lasted for one season. Starred David Cubitt, William Devane, Sarah Trigger and Matthew Armstrong. (1999)

Thanks!

When are the Baltimore radio stations going to realize that there are still many listeners who would like to hear songs from the forties and early fifties? I have stopped since my favorite station dropped us. They forget we are the ones buying their advertized products. Like it or not we are still around and will be for at least the next 20 years!

You must mean 1370 WWLG who has recently sort-of adopted the former WQSR-FM Oldies format and dropped standards. Both oldies and "standards" are being ditched all over the country in favor of younger skewing formats. My advise to you is to get satellite radio (either Serius or XM) because they both offer multiple stations that play oldies and standards. I have Serius and am very happy with it. The cost is a bit prohibitive at first, but for only $12 a month you get commercial free chrystal clear radio of every variety. The start-up cost is about $100 if you get the car kit and home adapter.

Actually, the trashy shows are what brings in the ratings and family friendly shows rarely do. "American Dreams" simply didn't have enough viewers for NBC to keep it around. I wouldn't blame NBC so much as I would blame the public in general - who aren't watching these shows. It would be like a store stocking their shelves with food that is only good for you, being next to a typical store that caters to the masses. The store catering to the masses with junky food would put the first store out of business.

I wanted to bring to your attention something you may not have been aware of.
On your Harrisburg TV stations page, it said central PA once had 2 CBS stations (WHP & WLYH)
In fact, it had THREE!
WSBA-TV (Ch. 43) was a CBS affiliate in York up until about 1983. The station changed call letters to WPMT and eventually became a FOX affiliate. I distinctly remember the slate that was broadcast before the "new" station signed on. I also remember watching the station when it was an independent for the short time before FOX was born. They had a cool ID showing an animated map of the Susquehanna Valley.

They were 'on the fence' with Tru Calling, so I didn't add it until the final word was given - which it was.

Got the following off the following website. Yikes!!!!!!

Mediaweek Magazine Online

Missing from CBS fall 2005 line-up are Judging Amy, Joan of Arcadia, 60 Minutes (on Wednesday) and JAG, four the network's five oldest skewing shows. Also not returning: Jason Alexander sitcom Listen Up, and Old Christine.

Although just one new comedy, My Name is Earl, is certainly not a cure for the current sitcom drought, NBC will introduce two additional sitcoms, Four Kings and Thick and Thin, in midseason, and has renewed the critically acclaimed, but minimally seen, The Office for a second season. Current or recent NBC series that did not make the cut include Third Watch, American Dreams, Law & Order: Trial By Jury, Committed and Medical Investigation. Although Fear Factor and Scrubs are not on the schedule, both series will return in midseason.

Also moving to new time periods are Wife Swap, According to Jim, Rodney, Boston Legal, George Lopez, Alias and Supernanny. Only two nights of the week -- Saturday and Sunday -- will remain unchanged. Canceled series include Eyes, Blind Justice, My Wife and Kids, 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter, Extreme Makeover and Complete Savages. Sitcoms Less Than Perfect and Jake in Progress, and reality hour The Bachelor will return in midseason.

This is always the time of year when things heat up in TV Hell! Thanks!

Sorry, but I'm worried about Boston Legal. It seem that the soft core porn they call a show (Grey's Anatomy) is doing well and it makes me so friggen angry. I may be dumb on the subject because I've not seen the show. The reason why is because in every single advertisement for the show, it's subject is "Who's sleeping with who in the hospital" and it angers me that a show like that trumps Boston Legal which has superior writing and great acting from James Spader and William Shatner. It's appalling. Well, my question to you is, is there a resource by which I can check for when Boston Legal will be on? Any news of the schedule on it for Fall? Can you pull some strings with the network execs to get Boston Legal on a great time slot? Thanks.

BTW, you're site is the best. Thank you for providing us all with this wonderful resource.

Thanks! "Boston Legal" will be back this Fall. ABC is looking at placing it in the 10-11PM slot on either Sunday or Monday night. They haven't made a decision yet. I agree that the public seems to like really dumb shows. Look at the FOX network's hits for a prime example over the past 10 years!

I would like to know about 3 different shows. first is Blind Justice on ABC. You and others poked fun at the concept , but it appears to be an excellent show and well thought up. Do you have any idea how it is doing and what its future is? Also how about the new Law And Order (Trial By Jury) and CBS' Num8ers.....That is my favorite new show and I always worry when I like something this much because it feels like the networks or critics always think differently. Any comments would be greatly appreciated and also keep up the good work , you do a hell of a job on this site as I said b4.

"Blind Justice" is set to return and is performing ok for ABC, not a top show, but doing fairly well. I personally don't care for it and find the entire concept of the show really stupid - but that's only my opinion. All of the "Law & Order" series are not performing as well as last year. The latest, "Trial by Jury" isn't raking in the viewers yet either. It is in the middle of the pack and will return for another season. "law & Order - CI" (The Columbo one) is even returning - and that particular show isn't doing well at all. "Numb3rs" is "on the bubble" and is 50/50 on another season. I haven't seen that one yet - although it looks like it would be a good show. Definately a great cast anyway. Here is a link to the top 20 rated shows FYI: http://tv.yahoo.com/nielsen/

I see I'm not the only one who accidentally refers to Boston LEGAL as Boston PUBLIC. Anyway, Grey's Anatomy was only put on in Legal's time slot for a trial basis, and the run ends soon. It's ratings have been even higher than Public's though, so it's been said that Grey's will probably return in the post D H time slot in the fall, and Legal will move to another night.

Too many great shows have been canceled or ended their runs this year. I cried at the end of the last NYPD Blue knowing no new ones would air again. I cried when I read that Third Watch was canceled. I'm pissed that shows like Point Pleasant and Dead Like Me have been canceled, and Queer as Folk will soon start it's final season. BTW, it was from your website today that I found out about Dead Like me, and I'm really upset. I was looking forward to another season of that great show.

It's that time of year, and there are a lot of long-running shows that aren't getting good enough ratings to justify their cost, etc.

Maybe a different night cause you know "Desperate Housewives" isnt going anywhere? Any answers on this one?

Thanks for keeping up with this website.....I check it almost daily.

Good catch! ABC did renew "Rodney" this season. "Jake in Progress" is still "on the bubble", so it's 50/50 based on whatever ABC can find to replace it, or if they think that it can find more viewers over another season. I am being told that most likely "Jake" won't return, but that's not a definitive word yet. Thanks for the kind words!

It was already cancelled (last year, Fox stopped filming after 6 episodes), but waited until now to show them and is not showing the 6th episode anyway, meaning tonight's episode is the last one.

I had heard that if the show were to somehow become a hit - that FOX would have brought it back. Pretty strange way to go about things though, because it would have cost a lot more to bring a show back after all of this time.

I checked and only got a response that FOX is planning on giving the show a summer mini-launch. That means that it's basically a trial run during the network downtime that is summer. Stranger things have happened....look at "Family Guy" for example!

# 536 Quintuplets was not cancelled in March. It is still on the bubble and according to the director likely to renew.

That's not what I'm hearing - but I will remove it until it is officially cancelled (not that I am hoping for anything like that). I usually don't add shows to TV Hell until it's official anyway.

I just read your list of cancellations. #536 Quintuplets?? Where do you get your information from?? Someone posted it on the Fox Quintuplet's website. Is this a mistake...first of all they are not 5 boys (maybe mistaken with Complete Savages?)
We have heard nothing?

My sources usually start with people that Email me with news on cancellations, then I contact my sources at three different trade mags. I also have a few friends that work at some of the networks that help out. I also work in TV, but not in programming. Lastly, the AP wire sends news of cancellations on the Entertainment feed. With "Quintuplets" I am being told that it is "on hiatus" and won't likely return. Do you have any different information on this? My goof on the cast though...sorry.

It looks like unless they end up on another channel like Sci-Fi, this show has been cancelled by Showtime.

I heard that Showtime has cut their original programming budget by quite a lot this year. I guess that they are just going to concentrate on movies and leave the rest for HBO...

It seemed to fizzle in its 2nd season (the 1st season ended with a pageant. I was watching the 2nd season but it seemed to disappear abruptly way before a pageant could occur.

"The Swan" is officially "on hiatus". It's ratings were dismal last season, so at most it might return as a replacement show or summer show to air it's remaining episodes. That's only speculation though.

First I have to agree about WJZ Channel 13 in Baltimore. It is horrific. Marty Bass' snow show is the worst. I am a fan of WBAL Channel 11. Are you local to Baltimore?

Do you have any info if ABC's Rodney and According to Jim will return next season? I do not know why but I love those shows!

Also, is ABC pulling the plug on 8 Simple Rules yet?

Finally, Is the verdict out on Joey?

Thanks very much.

I'm actually living on Kent Island, so I have reception of Baltimore, DC, and Salisbury TV stations. I'm originally from NY and have worked at a bunch of TV stations there. With that said, WJZ-13 would be embarassing for me to work at!
Both "Rodney" and "According to Jim" are scheduled to return, although both have slipped a bit in the ratings. They still should be strong enough fora return. "8 Simple Rules" is also returning. How bizarre is that one. usually when a star dies, so does the show (Phil Hartman on News Radio for example).
NBC's "Joey" is also returning. While it doesn't get "Friends" ratings, it still does pretty well. It is a slight disappointment for NBC vecause they expected huge ratings, but it is also somewhat of a success because it's in the top 20. I personally don't think that it's a very good show, but spinoffs rarely are.

I avoid watching Channel 13 in the morning for one reason, Marty Bass and his ego. Don Scott is is an absolute professional and it is a same to have him teamed up with him. They should have Bass doing remotes from the the coal mines in Kitzmiller, MD.

I don't understand WJZ one bit. The look of their local news has always been very small market (amature), and the 'talent' has always been second rate. They shoot the reporters way too close-up, the set looks cheesey, the graphics are cheesey, 'talent' like the one that you mentioned have horrific accents, the lighting is bad, and the music is 1970's. WJZ-TV is a CBS owned and operated station in a top-20 market (Baltimore), but it looks like a station that could be in market 150-something. I don't know how they are consistantly either #2 or #1 in the ratings there. I at least don't see how they are beating WMAR-TV (ABC-2).

Thanks! "Family Guy" did gangbusters in DVD sales and does very well for Cartoon Network. FOX smelled the $'s and brought it back once more. Family guy was cancelled one time before as well, and brought back from the dead a season later. Hopefully FOX will leave the show on in one specific time period and not move it all around like it did the last time. It's a totally bizarre show, but I'm a fan.

"The Division" was cancelled back in June 2004 and "Life With Bonnie" was cancelled in April 2004. Unfortunately, with all of the competition out there, shows aren't given much of a chance if they even slip a small percentage.

"Touching Evil" is on hiatus or "break" until USA confirms that it wants another full season order. Cable shows often take long breaks without weekly re-runs, unlike the shows that are on the broadcast networks. A good example of this is "The Sopranos" which takes breaks that last over a year.

Technically, 'The Surreal Life' was cancelled by The WB Network. VH1 bought it and is now running it. I'll delete the space in 'Hell' for it... "Studio 7" was placed on "hiatus" as a mid-season replacement, but has not yet resurfaced. Not a good sign.

"TV-1" is from "Radio-One", the largest owner of black targeted radio stations in the country. Chances are that if you live in a populated area, there is a "Urban", "Urban A.C.", or a similar formatted station owned by Radio-One in your area. They wanted to expand from just radio and start a cable network that is by and for African Americans. It is based in Washington DC (where "Radio-One" is) and is meant to compete with "B.E.T".
