After 8 seasons of saving the planet in a day this show gets canceled? That is like, 5 seasons too late imo. I loved season 1-2 but after that I thought that it got a bit ridiculous and the show was going to milk every single season they could possibly go on a great concept that loses value over time. Arrested Development only goes for 2.5 seasons but this show can have 8  Very bad imo.AGAIN it deserves repeating but the first few seasons were great but after that it SUCKED. | ||

The stories sucked ass and the acting was, well, sub par. whats all this bullshit people are making up? trying to justify its cancellation and pretending to have seen the show... nothing you said is even remotely close to how 24 is | ||

I'll agree with some of the acting being subpar, but the worldview comment was out of left field. All the show did was show that pretty much every nationality, Americans included, have people willing to screw over everything and anything for various reasons. If anything, it was pretty cool how they didn't rely on stupid racial tropes. | ||

Watched every season of 24, I has run its course, the plot like someone pointed out already is very repeative at some point. Well, finally Jack is gonna die I want to see more Elisha Culberth though Blergh, and I liked the show too, contrary to other opinions. Oh well, Jack's luck was going to run out sooner or later. Either that, or they're going to end with him just leaving to LA and retiring for good. | ||

Whenever a good show debuts, the plot always dies or becomes retarded as they try to stretch it out for as many seasons as possible. Make a good show, keep the story tight and focused, and move on when it's time to move on. Network TV needs to take a lesson from HBO, or from every other form of entertainment. It's like being 60 minutes into a movie you like and having someone splice in 4 hours of crap and then tacking on an ending as an afterthought. This. Sooo many shows have had a fantastic first season, whereupon the producers are like "holy shit, this is big" and proceed to milk the crap out of the series, throwing quality out the window somewhere down the line. Is it too much to ask for more TV series where the plot actually has a predetermined, well thought out ending? Now somebody needs to axe CSI. It pains me that it's still airing. People always say this, but I wonder how well a second season would actually turn out. Also, Serenity kinda makes this difficult. TT | ||

 .Overall I have enjoyed the run it has had. I was actually expecting it to end in the near future, not because of dislike, but because a lot of the characters are winding down. I expect the House series to follow suite soon as well. It is interesting that most of the thread has pretty much bashed the crap out of the series. Obviously its ratings over the years have been up and down, but overall it has been a great success. It's nice some on reality based shows can still have some life in todays media. Out of those who really disliked the series, what do you enjoy watching? | ||

Never going to happen. Especially since Serenity tanked at the box office. I don't even think it made its budget back. edit: LOL yeah it didn't | ||
