Sucre woulda fit in prison so much more in that outfit.

that's seriously the most mind boggling sitcom since Baby Bob and Cavemen, probably worse.

I would think Fox would want to launch at least one new drama next fall. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays don't work without alot of reshuffling.

Terra Nova is probably dead and House isn't officially ending this year. My guess at this point would be that one of Alcatraz and Touch survives but it's interesting. I really wish FOX would open up the 10 o'clock hour as they tend to try alot of interesting programming. (I actually asked a FOX exec about this on Twitter and he said it was never going to happen.)

Did you hear something about House? Last I heard the Creator was going to have a meeting with the execs at FOX to find out if this would be the last season. I'd really like to know what's going on.

Turned it off during the principle office scene. This show obviously should not last longer than how the be a gentlemen which I also turned off halfway.

Comedies aren't how they use to be..

How To Be A Gentleman was canceled at lightning speed. This one should be around longer than that. It should make it at least 5 weeks.

No, but you'd think if it was the last season they'd want to promote it as such. Laurie is expensive and the ratings haven't been great.

Not 100% but even though NBC Universal produces the show I think I read they wouldn't be able to acquire the show if FOX cancels it.

All I know was that the Creator wanted to be able to wrap the show up, if it's in fact the end. If they do a last minute cancellation, that would be pretty whack. Based on this season, I could easily see it going another three, if FOX can take the lower than normal numbers for the show. I would consider these ratings to be slightly above the bubble, but if they dip much more, it would be in real trouble due to the costs. I love that it's beaten Terra Nova the last two original episodes. I find that really humorous.

This is arguably the best overall cast the show's had in its run (not a fan of Taub, but I can deal with him).

Fox and ABC competing for WOAT sitcom.

I actually got a little angry while watching that I Hate Daughter clip tbh, don't know why, but I did.

Also, Allen Gregory needs to be taken off ASAP, probably watched 10 minutes then just jumped on the Internets. I sort of get what they're trying to do but they're doing it wrong.

Wonder if it's still the same people who took Futurama off the air....

Allen Gregory is brutal, the gay dad is one of the worst characters of all time.

Looks like ABC will be pulling Man Up from their schedule and replacing it with Last Man Standings reruns.

I can't stand watching that show ever since I saw Ralphie walking out of the Paris theater and congratulated him and told him I was rooting for him..

He looked over at me and said, "thanks, but I just lost."

I didn't know they were taping the finale in the Paris theater room (small little dump that it was). I felt soo bad. Dude looked crushed.

He was the big fat guy that lost to an annoying Asian guy in season 1 or 2 iirc.

what show was Ralphie May on?

What, you no like Dat Phan's mother jokes? And while you got me started, Dat Phan sucks, but it's not like that was some huge traesty, Ralphie May isn't really funny either.

methinks we're confusing Last Man Standing with Last Comic Standing

(Ralphie May definitely got screwed though)

Pan Am has really been good the last 4 or 5 episodes. Too bad it looks like it's all but canceled now.

Thanks to those itt who rec'd Revenge. Marathoned all the episodes over the last few days. Needless to say I'm hooked.

did up all night get any better? it was the only sitcom i tried this season that i couldn't finish but will surely be bored over the holidays. my tolerance is pretty high for mediocrity but this one was bad. recommendations welcome.
