[iBall On Media TV Blog]
DISCLAIMER: In general, I only promise to update this page on weekends
(though with Dreamweaver and Mac.com I am finding it much easier to update
this page now, so more frequent updates are certainly possible). After all,
this "TV Shows Status Page" is maintained as a hobby
of mine! In any case, if you know that a TV show has been cancelled, etc.,
that information may show up on this page until the following weekend.

Known Cancelled Shows (in '06-'07):By definition, shows that are "ending their runs" are doing so by mututal agreement among the network, the cast, and the production crew, and generally have "final" episodes (e.g. Will & Grace, Charmed, Everybody Loves Raymond, JAG, Friends, Frasier, Dawson's Creek, Buffy, The X-Files, 90210, Party of Five, Melrose Place, Seinfeld, etc.); otherwise, they've been cancelled (e.g. Everwood, Judging Amy, Joan of Arcadia, Farscape, Spin City, The Pretender, Homicide, Ellen, Murder She Wrote, Lois & Clark, Dallas, etc.). Here is the list of the TV shows that are ending their runs after many seasons at the end of the '06-'07 TV year: Shows Ending Run Net. (Comments) ---------------- ---- ---------- 7th Heaven(???) CWN Stargate: SG-1 SciFi (Ending in May 2007; I'm assuming there'll be a series finale.) Here is the list of the TV shows from the '05-'06 season that are known to be cancelled. Again, to keep track of such things, shows that are new this season (i.e. this is the show's first season) have been marked in red; shows in "[..]" have not been officially cancelled, but are very likely cancellation targets: ABC CBS NBC --- --- --- Daybreak 3 lbs. [20 Good Years] [Help Me Help You] Smith Kidnapped [The Nine] †Waterfront Show Me the Money [Six Degrees] † Cancelled before ever airing! (Was to be a mid-season show...)

Blade: The Series (FX) Huff (SHOW) Lovespring International (LIFETIME) Lucky Louie (HBO) Mile High (BBC America) Rome (HBO) Three Moons Over Milford (ABC Family) |
Shows Known To Be "In Trouble":This is the list of shows that appear to be "in trouble" (i.e. in danger of cancellation), with the network that the shows air on, and comments. By the way, if you see the word "retooling" next to a show you like, expect the worst, as network "retooling" almost always leads to a decline in the show's quality and usually ends with cancellation. (NOTE: This list is mostly the opinion of this author, as influenced by media reports (e.g. "The LA Times"), and Internet scuttlebutt!) Shows in "Trouble" Network Comments ------------------ ------- -------- Help Me Help You ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". The Nine ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". Six Degrees ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". |
Shows Known To Be On Hiatus:This is the list of shows known to have been put on hiatus, along with the network that the shows air(ed) on, and comments. Shows on Hiatus Network Comments --------------- ------- -------- 20 Good Years NBC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; it's probbably toast... Help Me Help You ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". The Nine ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". Six Degrees ABC Show has been put on indetermentant hiatus; translation: this is code for "cancelled". |
Shows Known To Have Been Moved:And here is the list of the TV shows from the '06-'07 season that have moved from old times to new timeslots. The new airing times are also listed. As stated above, any shows that have been recently added to this list, will be underlined. (Shows will also be 'pruned' from this list after a month or two...) Moved Shows Net. New Airing Time Old Airing Time ----------- ---- --------------- --------------- [section suspended for the time being...] |
New Mid-Season Replacement Shows:And here is the most up-to-date "mid-season replacement" list, which I will update as new shows start to appear (shows no longer airing, will be indicated in the list; check the "Hiatus" List, as well). For the Fall, I will list any "new" shows that replace early Fall casualties; for spring, any show that has replaced a cancelled show, or that has temporarily bumped an established show into 'hiatus', will be listed. (NOTE: Mid-season shows such as "Scrubs" or "Crossing Jordan" will not be listed here, as they are not (technically) "new" shows. Also note that this list generally only tracks broadcast network shows, and not series on the cable networks...) New Mid-Season Show Net. Airing Time Comments ------------------- ---- ----------- -------- In Case of Emercency ABC Wednesdays, 9:30 pm [details later] The Knights of Prosperity ABC Wednesdays, 9:00 pm [details later] |
