2009 network tv dead pool
i've wanted to do this for a few years now, but haven't gotten around to it due to poor timing and monumental laziness. anyway, here it is:
this is simply a pool where we each chose a show that is new to the 2009 fall tv line-up and whoever's show gets canceled first....wins some sort of prize that will be determined at a later date. simply comment on this post with the show you wish to chose and wait for the axe to fall. first come, first serve.
here are the shows:
8)accidentally on purpose (cbs) jenny
3)er trauma (nbc) rcade
9)melrose place (the cw) bruiser
- v (abc) pix
- ncis: los angeles (cbs) judy
- the good wife (cbs) s
11)the forgotten (abc) bg
- glee (fox) buerger
7)er mercy (nbc) cade
1)the beautiful life (the cw)
2)eastwick (abc) leanne
4)hank (abc) dan
- the middle (abc) kroeker

10)flash forward (abc) carrie
- the vampire diaries (the cw)

choose wisely. and if you can't or don't want to leave a comment here...you may send me a message on facebook.
disclaimer: only new shows on network stations are included. no cable shows, for obvious reasons. also, reality shows are not included, because it is typically impossible to cancel a reality show mid-season. i will wait until the 5th choice is in before i make mine as to not cherry pick any obvious picks.

One for Trauma, please.
Jay Leno doesn't make the list??
ha. i was gonna add him to the disclaimer as "un-cancelable" because, let's face it, he is...but i forgot.
good catch.
hmm. it's a toss-up for me between The Good Wife and Hank. I guess I'll go with Hank...
The cougar one. Please!!
I guess Jay could fall into your disclaimer, since it really isn't a new show just same show at a different time. Put me down for accidentally on purpose. Thanks!
Argh, I wanted Cougar Town! Put me down for Eastwick, please.
Kroeker: I'm going on a limb to say Eastwick. Sure it has the stars and hot women, however it might be a little too corney? I would assume people would get sick of ERish medical dramas, but apparently I've been wrong so far.
sorry kroeker. leanne beat you to that one.
Tough call between The Forgotten and Glee, but I'll take Glee
You put "The Forgotten" twice. Nice irony though. That's my vote. On another note I've never even heard of half these shows.
I'll take V. I never liked that letter anyways.
Cougar Town is my first choice, then Trauma...but I'll go with Flash Forward.
i'm shocked no one has gone with 'brothers' yet.
it's michael strahan in a sitcom, people. it CAN'T be good.
I'll take brothers for you. :o)
Put me down for NCIS Los Angeles
Kroeker: Alright, alright... I'll take "The Middle". I like Heaton and Flynn, but the concept seems over done and doesn't have enough of a catch to keep people's attention. It will get lost in the shuffle.
say goodnight, "the beautiful life." we hardly knew ye.
game is still on, though since no one picked it.
I'll take The Good Wife. They need to come up with a good storyline for Matt Czuchry in a hurry, because the main storyline is predictable and boring.
Bruiser here...
Gimme Melrose Place - it was horrible the first time, gong to be worse this time.
Is the gay guy back?
bruce, you are dead to me.
but, i'll add you to the list.
It's not the worst show on the list, but easily the most disappointing. Give me the Cleveland Show.
done. oh, and i have good intel that suggests that three rivers is "terrible."
incidentally, i am shocked that only one show has been cut so far. we're almost 3 weeks into the new season. it's usually a bloodbath at this point.
according to ew....leanne is our winner!
congrats, le. as soon as i figure out an appropriate prize, it will be in the mail.
YESSS! I can't believe half of these shows lasted this long.
i know. i am amazed that some of them are still on.
