Hasn't the nine been cancelled? BSG and Numbers are good.

Not sure if it was cancelled or not.

It may be a while before anyone finds out what happened to "The Nine" inside that bank.

ABC has pulled the critically acclaimed but ratings-challenged series from its schedule effective immediately. A special edition of "20/20" will take its place on Wednesday, Nov. 29, and another newsmagazine, "Primetime," will move into the 10 p.m. Wednesday spot the following week.

The network made the announcement on Saturday, in the midst of a holiday weekend when presumably the TV critics who hailed the show at the start of the season aren't working. Its ratings haven't matched the praise, though: Through last week the show had averaged just 8.6 million viewers, fumbling more than half of the 17.7 million viewers who watched its lead-in, "Lost."

With "Lost" now on hiatus, numbers for "The Nine" tumbled even further this week, finishing a distant third in its timeslot.

"The Nine," which stars Tim Daly, Kim Raver, Chi McBride and Scott Wolf, follows the lives of people who survived a 52-hour hostage standoff resulting from a botched bank robbery. The series' primary focus is on the emotional fallout for the survivors, with flashback sequences filling in the events of the robbery.

ABC says the show will return sometime later this season but is offering no specifics. It joins another ABC freshman show, "Six Degrees," in scheduling limbo. - TvDvdAddict

Now that Deadwood is over and done, the only thing I am looking forward to watching is Season 2 of Rome on HBO. After that finishes I cut cable until Season 3 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

If you haven't seen Day Break yet it is one damn good series. Not since 24 have I layed wittness to a show that I actually cannot wait to see the next episode too. It is a nail biting thrill ride that keeps you wanting more and more. A semi-brilliant rehased ground hog day plot that just keeps getting better and better as the puzzle of the lead characters day keeps unfolding.

It really is a very good series.

The Unit
Day Break
BSG
Shark
Numbers
Star Trek - TOS - Remakes (Surprising good)
CSI - shows
NCIS
The Nine

are the only shows I seem interested in watching.

I'll be really happy when the networks go the way of the dodo and stations have to compete based on the quality of their shows vs how many people they can put in their seats who would just as much be somewhere else. I'd be more than willing to pay a cable or satellite bill for shows I like and no more nauseating commercials. The fact that you can get bad networks (and all the major networks are bad) for cheap just encourages the status-quo without representing in any way what viewers want, because if we can't find it we can't watch it.
