Deathwatch Fall 06

What TV Shows will die?

October 9. 2006
An exciting Monday for TV watchers.

Going into the weekend, DeathWatchers had written in to tell us that “Justice” was pulled from its Wednesday night spot, and were wondering if it had been cancelled.
TVWeek.com is reporting that actually, Fox pulled “Justice” to make room for their new game show “The Rich List” wherein contestants … really, who cares?

“Justice” sits at number 8 on the DeathWatch (odds are 29:1). Fox will now show it on Monday nights at 9pm.

Meanwhile, the much-bemoaned “Vanished” has been bumped from that same Monday night spot and moved to … oh dear, Friday nights. This is the DeathWatch equivalent of being moved into intensive care. A lot of shows go to Friday night to die. Perhaps Fox is planning an end to the possibly-ironically-named show.

“The Class” on CBS took another dip to land at number four on the Deathwatch this morning. CBS believes in “The Class,” and is trying to protect it, but there's no getting away from those sadly disappointing ratings.

Meanwhile, DeathWatch "first to go" pick -- “Men in Trees” came in third for the hour on Friday night. It scored a 2.1 rating, and finished behind both "Dateline NBC" and “Close to Home” on CBS. The ratings for the Anne Heche dramedy have begun to reflect the DeathWatch odds (3:1).
So when will it go?

Our office gossip here at BBCancelled.com is all about an article at Broadcasting and Cable, which had some interesting tidbits about “Friday Night Lights.”

Over the past week, the small-town football drama climbed to number 15 on the Deathwatch. It made its way up from number 13 last Monday. NBC has faith in “Lights,” with plans to show the first three episodes during their “Sunday Night Football” hiatus. (Odds of cancellation 99:1)
We’ve gotten a lot of interesting comments on the community board this weekend, that you can check out here.
