Attention, television fans: Wee fledgling TV shows need your help!
All of the new fall shows have premiered, and as quickly as they came into our lives, some of them will be departing due to low ratings.
These series are all very much on the bubble, because of low ratings, lack of critical response or some combination thereof. Each one has unique circumstances, but all are unlikely to live out the year, unless something drastic happens to convince network bosses that they should take a second look. And that's what this special fall edition of Save One Show is all about: We're giving you fans a chance to explain why your show deserves another chance.
So which of the shows on shaky ground do you most want to see more of?
The SAFE shows that premiered this fall include The Cleveland Show, Community (yay, Joel McHale!), Cougar Town, FlashForward, Glee, The Good Wife, Mercy, The Middle, Modern Family, NCIS: Los Angeles, V and Vampire Diaries.
One show, The Beautiful Life, is completely DEAD & BURIED. (It's been yanked from the air, production has shut down, etc.)
THE ENDANGERED LIST
Here's the current status of the eight new fall shows we consider to be in imminent danger:
Accidentally on Purpose (CBS): Five additional episodes have been ordered.
Brothers (Fox): No additional episodes have been ordered.
Eastwick (ABC): No additional episodes have been ordered.
The Forgotten (ABC): Five additional episodes have been ordered.
Hank (ABC): No additional episodes have been ordered.
Melrose Place (CW): Five additional episodes have been ordered.
Three Rivers (CBS): No additional episodes have been ordered.
