Surface was a decent sci-fi show to watch on a rainy day when you have like 10 of them saved on the TIVO. It's allure seems more aimed at the younger crowd (the Wesley Crusher effect), but me a young 50 could enjoy it somewhat. <br/><br/>However the show I an so very disappointed in, one I watched from show number one and never missed, the one that will make me never ever ever watch a sci-fi series that airs on any of the major 3 networks again (they'll never try for another 20 years anyway with the 3 cancellations), is Invasion. <br/><br/>I was so into Invasion, it was not slow to me as some say but instead every week brought up a new piece to the mystery. Lost? Didn't watch it. <br/><br/>So very disappointed. The major networks expect too high of numbers - if this show were on USA or WB/UPN, or maybe even FOX, it wouldn't have been axed.. <br/><br/>If there is a movement to write into any network or cable network urging them to pick up Invasion, someone please post and point me at a link.

However the show I an so very disappointed in, one I watched from show number one and never missed, the one that will make me never ever ever watch a sci-fi series that airs on any of the major 3 networks again (they’ll never try for another 20 years anyway with the 3 cancellations), is Invasion.

So very disappointed. The major networks expect too high of numbers – if this show were on USA or WB/UPN, or maybe even FOX, it wouldn’t have been axed..

If there is a movement to write into any network or cable network urging them to pick up Invasion, someone please post and point me at a link.

I am so sick of reality TV and girls that can talk to ghosts. I wonder if the same person writes for all the networks considering the same shows keep popping up same plot different women I am so upset that they cancelled In Justice and Evidence.

It seems like the only network willing to let a show play out is FOX.

It is too bad that we will not get a chance to see how it ends. Likewise with Commander In Chief...hopefully they will air the remaining episodes. It seems like there are simply too many decent shows and they are cutting each others throats. I know that I am more of a couch potato this year then ever before! Heist was actually pretty good.

That's a pretty good show. Of course, it's on F/X, so it's on the edgier side of TV. Lots of drama and suspense, plays off a lot more like a feature than TV.<br/><br/>The cast is stellar, also. While Nip/Tuck has relied on pushing the envelope this show really puts it's characters through tough situations. Hope it gets picked up for additional shows so that folks have the chance to watch it and judge for themselves.<br/><br/>Over There was another good show that didn't really get much of an opportunity. No doubt due to the subject matter.<br/><br/>Everybody should have known Book of Daniel was doomed after the first episode. Way too much controversy for a TV show! :) Wow, can’t believe nobody’s mentioned Thief. That’s a pretty good show. Of course, it’s on F/X, so it’s on the edgier side of TV.

Everybody should have known Book of Daniel was doomed after the first episode. Way too much controversy for a TV show! :)

That has been a great show with a great cast. The Evidence looks promising too - although that looks like it will be cancelled as well. <br/><br/>The biggest disappointment was The Book of Daniel.
