So what do you think?
For once, most of my favorite shows are fine.
I go for the not-pure-drama crime shows (Elementary, CSI, the NCIS's, Hawaii Five-0), the classic non-sarcasm humor sitcoms (Big Bang Theory, Modern Family), the superheroes (Arrow, soon to be Flash and Gotham), the supernatural (Supernatural, Sleepy Hollow), and of course, the cartoons (Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad).
Cancelled shows like Revolution and The Tomorrow People were already getting old. In my opinion, they took perfectly good movie plots and tried to extend them into longer shows. Well, that's didn't work! What we ended up with were really long and drawn-out plots, not really serialized or standalone TV. They were fun to watch at first, but soon grew tiresome, and I won't miss them. I've quit watching Continuum for this same reason. It's gotten boring, and not worth my time.
Of all the canceled shows, I think I'd have liked to see more Rake. It was House all over again, but with a lawyer instead of a doctor.
HIMYM will be missed, but it was getting stale, as the plot had already run it course a year or two ago, and was just coasting.
This was all broadcast networks, not cable. Most of my toons come from Cartoon Network (Avengers, Spiderman), and I enjoy the occasional cable show (HBO, etc).
