Deception of a Cancellation

OK  I am sighing and rolling my eyes this afternoon. The show "Deception" was cancelled by NBC. Even though we have no idea who Vivianne's killer (the point of the show), the show has been killed. I should be used to it. Lots of shows that I like get the ax. I hate how TV Networks do that. Let the shows have at least a proper ending. One special episode this summer could tie it all up in a little bow.

When I see Networks do this to shows, my mind thinks of many shows from just our recent television pact. "My Name is Ear" is one of those shows. If Darnell was not Earl Jr's father, who is? Who did Mona choose Chase or Lorenzo in the show, "Half & Half". There are shows like "Heroes" and "A Gifted Mind" both ended with questions that need answers.

The show that the Networks did  treated the worse in my opinion was the show "Girlfriends". The CW actually said a finale episode episode would cost too much. I was outraged. A Proper Series Finale would cost too much. A long running show that was showing its ending day was not worth the money of a proper goodbye. Wow, who did the research that helped make that decision? The sad reality is that CW said their reason but all the Networks probably feel that way. If they didn't think that way, then why are so many shows cancelled without an ending. It's all about the dollar line not what is actually the proper thing to do.

Oh well Deception joins the rest in the "Unfinished Series Ending" section of the Television Shows Cemetery. Finished or Unfinished great memories of our favorites will forever live in our hearts

Life Decision about TV

While waiting for my next client, I was looking at The View (love that show) and one of the actors of The Walking Dead was on the couch as a guest and I found out what this popular show is about. Then it hit me being Scripted & Reality TV show everyone and every interest is represented somewhere on TV. In my opinion, if a person wants to watch TV and can't find anything of interest on TV, they're not looking hard enough or don't want to really watch TV
.
It is no secret to the offline world, I watch an obscene amount of TV. I've tried to put it in hours and get embarrassed. I even have the TV on when I read and I read a least 3-4 books a month
.
As I sit here doing this blog I am being reminded of the first show that identified me, the show Daria. I was a dry wit sarcastic nerd of a teenager and I dreaded talking to "stupid" people and couldn't wait to go to college where I belonged. Daria was proof it wasn't just me out there feeling like that. Since then I found myself in other TV characters. There was Joan of the show Girlfriends. The trusty advisor to her friends whose life is just a neurotic as theirs. I can name every one of my friends as a character on Girlfriends. The ill-fated show Emily Owens screamed at me every Tuesday. I am going to miss this show. Woman becomes a doctor, vying the opportunity to assist a renown doctor. She knows she's awkward, accepted it, & made it work for her and people thinks she's cool. Then her high school nemesis walks in and she has not changed. Now balance all of that. I'm good until somebody from my foundation church visits my current church and sees me and wants to talk to me and whoever is around me. I see someone from the "hood" at a restaurant or the mall, I say silent prayers like Emily Owens. Friend Request on Facebook it all makes me feel like Emily Owens. I'm gonna miss that show Emily Owens (Gone to Soon).

Those are just some. I don't think I watch anything that does not reflect me or my interests somewhere. TV is more than just entertainment, it is a reflection of life. Look at what you watch. What does a show say about you?
