Only Scorpion has my heart. The rest are ok. So is a good book.
Bryan says
Kevin Can Wait is very similar to the old King of Queens, and thus will quickly become tiresome.
Frances Hammer says
The show was very funny last year.I think they made a mistake to get rid of the wife.Not so funny this year….They just can’t leave well enough alone.
Marie says
So happy Scorpion is renewed!!!

Ellen jongsma says
Scorpion is my absolute all time favorite. Fun, exciting, clean . Keep it going and cancel some other blood and guts nonsense.
Tricia D. Lowe says
Love Scorpion and NCIS! Hope Code Black and/or Pur
Genius get renewed!
Doris Rice says
I really hope you keep Criminal Minds. It’s a great show. I just wish they would get Dr. Spencer out of jail. He needs to be back with the team. And if you do cancel it at least wrap the show up with an ending and that would mean Spencer out of jail, but please don’t cancel. Also don’t cancel Code Black. It is a great Medical Show
Bronco46 says
I can’t believe they haven’t renewed Elementary yet. It’s an exceptionally good show.
Oh, wait a minute. I forgot, that’s not what the networks are looking for anymore.
Janis says
2 broke girls had to be the worst show I have ever watched. The acting, producing, directing were terrible, finally CANCELED!!? What took so long!!!!??!!!
BarbM says
I just got an email stating Scorpion will be cancelled. So what’s up?
