- Ungh, on 10/12/2007, -34/+500Funny, notice that all the shows they list are top shows from other networks! Seems to me like NBC wants the competition off the air!
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -54/+482Saturday Night Live.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -19/+410American Idol? Survivor?
- KicktheDonkey, on 10/12/2007, -13/+309"American Idol? Survivor?"
Add "Dancing With The Stars" and "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader" to that list, too. - jewdiknight, on 10/12/2007, -7/+216How about instead of a show we just cancel G4.
- Ghazi, on 10/12/2007, -134/+336The Simpsons stopped being funny years ago.
- Erowid, on 10/12/2007, -41/+243Err, why isn't The O'Reilly Factor on that list? :/
- drlha, on 10/12/2007, -30/+200Lost has got massively back on track after its dodgy 6 episode "mini season" or "pod" if you're in the business. IMHO its back to its best right now, and theres no way it should be cancelled.

One of the 5 was ER you idiot! - edmoney90, on 10/12/2007, -2/+123My Super Sweet Sixteen and all the other shows on MTV maybe
- LemonHerb, on 10/12/2007, -6/+101If they cancel lost before it ends it would piss off a lot of very obsessed fans, the type that would stalk TV executives.
- APHughes, on 10/12/2007, -87/+180Family Guy, After the first cancellation the show decided to do cut scenes every 5 seconds. In the older episodes the cut scenes were rare and it made them more enjoyable.
If you think back to your top 5 episodes maybe 1 from the newer seasons will be on there but the rest will be dominated by the earlier showings. - timbo1138, on 10/12/2007, -9/+99Don't necessarily agree about 24, as I've really enjoyed season 6, but I do agree that unless the formula gets a shakeup soon, it's hit its limit and can't keep working as a show.
- NeoCortex, on 10/12/2007, -20/+106I second that, and raise you Fox News.
- insanewriters, on 10/12/2007, -22/+102This coming from a network that NOBODY WATCHES.
- durex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+79Better yet... make it TechTV again... it went to ***** the second G4 touched it.
- seiha, on 10/12/2007, -13/+86@insanewriters: wrong, tons of people watch The Office
- alamandrax, on 10/12/2007, -16/+83Gilmore Girls. 'nuff said.
- CPoe, on 10/12/2007, -9/+72@ Hag
Completly agreed, even his commercials bother me. How can those same jokes keep him on the air.
"Burritto!"
HAHAHA!
Im sick of it. - natmaster, on 10/12/2007, -18/+81i.e., NBC's list of shows that are stealing their ratings.
- donkz, on 10/12/2007, -3/+64mtv should be cancelled
- bobothn, on 10/12/2007, -4/+65@insanewriters
Scrubs, my name is earl, the office, 30 rock, snl (don't kid your self it is still extremely popular), heroes.
yes no one is watching nbc. it is still higher ranked than fox. - Pile, on 10/12/2007, -3/+63Wouldn't it be easier to list the top 5 shows that SHOULDN'T be canceled?
- jobeus, on 10/12/2007, -5/+63How come I can't vote for American Idol to be axed? :(
- TheSaladMan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+57Remember when a channel called "Music Television" actually had music on it? Seems like so long ago....
- TroubleInMind, on 10/12/2007, -5/+53@APHughes
Reading your comment is worse than the time I saw Bobby McFerrin fall down a flight of stairs.
[ insert cut scene ] - dbhaley, on 10/12/2007, -28/+73If I were to write that list, it would be a list of one: 1) All reality shows on television
@Nobi-wan
You can't cancel SNL. Yes, the writing sucks, yes, the cast members are mediocre except for a few. But it's a staple. It's been on forever, besides, what would you replace it with? A "saturday night movie"? - 4815162342, on 10/12/2007, -14/+55Lost is still the best show on television. I guess MSNBC didn't see it last week.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -6/+45why isn't american idol on that list?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -16/+53Summary of the article:
"Let's cancel popular TV shows because I don't enjoy being entertained by them as much as I used to!"
Andy Dehnart, the idiot who wrote this stupid article, is nothing if not a douchebag. - triscuitbiscuit, on 10/12/2007, -2/+34They have a good distribution of the networks i see
Fox - 2
ABC - 1
CBS - 1
NBC - 1
And they had to pick on somebody at least twice so it is pretty good in that department - tofuninja, on 10/12/2007, -3/+32I'm sorry, but anyone who posts a top 5 list like that without AMERICAN IDOL on it is not a credible source.
- blumph, on 10/12/2007, -5/+33i never watch it and i'm glad i don't.
ladies and gentlemen, clocking in at more than 7 minutes of david carusso gold one liners,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sarYH0z948 - Skatmob, on 10/12/2007, -13/+40MSNBC's list lost me at Lost. A more accurate list would be to cut-n-paste NBC's current lineup and publish that.
- lockedon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25We seriously need tech TV back.. it was a hundred times better then G4.
- mikesherov, on 10/12/2007, -2/+27Lost, as a show, was designed for 5 seasons. In my opinion, that means there should be more questions then answers up until around 2.5 years into the show, especially since the show has one main concept that should be solved by the end.
If you noticed, Lost hit it's main arc a few weeks ago. They have been consistently revealing more than they've been obscuring since they came back from the mini-season, but they will never stop introducing mini-mysteries up until the end. If you don't have the patience to wait for the show to fully reveal itself and need nice little pre-defined packages where you know there is a big answer every week, please go elsewhere.
Lost is about coming up with theories and testing them week after week without getting 100% validation. It's about scouring the internet and piecing movie clips together, and talking to friends about what is going on on the island. It isn't about "Did you see what happened?". It's about "What the hell happened?". It's about not getting the full answer while believing you already know what the full answer is. If Lost just tied everything up nicely every other week, it would just be Heroes. Some people like long drawn out mysteries. If you're that type of person, Lost is for you. - turbod33, on 10/12/2007, -11/+36I love 24. I've seen it all, multiple times. But this article is dead on. Sometimes shows, even really good ones, just outlive their usefulness. Look at how low key the first season was, trying to save the life of an upcoming presidential candidate. Now we have nukes all over the place, and killer viruses, and WAIT, someone is always undermining / trying to kill the president, and plot twist after unthinkable plot twist. Season 6 has been very good, but still it's just not as fresh and getting somewhat unbelievable.
- BrewBeau, on 10/12/2007, -3/+27This season was pretty bad. The season's over as far as I'm concerned. Who the flip cares about Audrey Raines? Every season has to top the previous one. Now that they've already involved Jack's brother, his dad, the prez, the vice prez, half the people at CTU, what's next? Maybe the Dhali Llama will join forces with the pope to nuke the dying polar bears and raise the sea levels in a plot to live under the sea. The twist will be that Jack is busy in space trying to stop a giant meteor but should be able to get back to LA, where everything happens, "within the hour".
- Kyderdog, on 10/12/2007, -54/+77>The Simpsons stopped being funny years ago.
Thats because you stopped watching, the last 2 years have been the best.. - alarion, on 10/12/2007, -5/+27I firmly hold to my opinion that House is some of the best TV on right now. Bad american accent or not.
- mywhitenoise, on 10/12/2007, -7/+29Gets too many ratings. But I totally agree, that show is ***** horrible and proves how useless our country is. We can get millions upon millions to vote for some douchebag with gay hair, but we can't get nearly as many to vote in the presidential election.
- TroubleInMind, on 10/12/2007, -2/+24ER is still on the air? WTF?
- brstilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+22Hear hear. Their schedule is just so droll nowadays...15 hours of Cops, 1 hour of X-play, 3 more hours of Cops, Ninja Warrior. What the hell does watching urban drug dealers and mulleted methheads getting the beat-down have to do with Video Games or Technology?
- profOblivion, on 10/12/2007, -12/+32"Lost is the best show on television."
Maybe. Until next Monday.
It's time to save the world. - MadOgre, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21Still pissed they canceled Firefly.
- ManHammer, on 10/12/2007, -6/+23American Idol, American Idol, American Idol
- betterth, on 10/12/2007, -35/+51@simpleid
Go ahead and try to cancel Family Guy (again).
We'll just bring it back (again).
~Family Guy's adoring fans. - blakyce, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17I love Lost and I am fine with never finding out all of the answers. People had the same problem with X-Files in that they wanted to know what was happening. I understand their frustration but for myself I enjoy the journey more than my need to bring things to a conclusion. As long as we have great characters like Locke, Sayed, Sawyer, Kate ... I will continue to enjoy what the island throws at them. If the show has all the questions answered it becomes Gilligan's Island and i don't want that.
- SweetMercury, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16NBC is criticizing CSI for having spinoffs?
