Don't you DARE cancel "The Good Guys," FOX!!!

I've heard rumblings that The Good Guys on FOX may be canceled.  (Rumblings from my dad who heard it from my sister, which I verified by googling my fingers to nubs.)  They have not been doing too great in the ratings and to that I say, America is stupid!  It is a good show, I laugh out loud, it's witty, clever... okay, so the name is a horrible fit to the show, but it's an AWESOME SHOW.

And speaking of canceling shows, I turned to good ole' TVGuide.com to find out which shows are returning in the fall.  Dollhouse was canceled, which is unfortunate, but they gave it a terrible timeslot... stupid stupid heads.   Then FlashForward is canceled, which I find out a mere week after finishing all the episodes on my DVR.  What happened?!  I don't think I cared too much about the other ones that were axed.  I also must say that NBC might as well declare bankruptcy now because their new falls shows look horribly pathetic.  Plus there was that whole getting rid of Conan thing which made me wanna throw a flaming pile of dog poo on their doorstep.

So check out the list and tell me what you think.  Let's talk boob tube, eh?

Dear Dish Network

Dear Dish Network,

All right, I'm putting my foot down. The frustration pot in the pit of my stomach has been slowly simmering for over a year now, but is starting to boil over and if my complaint is not remedied soon, it is going to turn into a molten lava of anger burning to the bottom and the sides and leaving a nasty roasted aluminum smell throughout the countryside.

You stole ABC from me. I understand, it was a law, you were no longer able to offer distant networks. But, here is what I know- there is a local affiliate that carries ABC and says that they are waiting for you to put them in your line-up. Touche, Dish Network! What is the hold up? I can not get a waiver and I have been void of my precious Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives for far too long.

Sure, I could watch them on the computer, but who wants to break their neck in an uncomfortable chair when they can be lounging languidly in the the luxury of their glorious rocker recliner?

Not I, Dish Network. Thankfully SoapNet has spared me the horror of being without General Hospital, but you have successfully got my goad.

Here is your ultimatum, Dish, if that is indeed your real name: I have remained silent, but now learning who the new cast of the next season of Dancing With the Stars is, I can wait no longer. Ty Murray and Jewel will be the first married couple. The train wreck that is Denise Richards has me mesmerized.

You, Dish Network, shall get me my precious ABC before the new season of DWTS begins or I will start mailing stinky sardines in poorly insulated envelopes to your head offices until this atrocity is remedied.

The gauntlet has been cast. My pot is a'boil. Get 'er done, ye nasty villains!!

Sincerely,

hamsterkitten
