The Black Donnellys
 

...cancelled. mwah:

I don't know if any of you guys watch this show, but it's amazing. I just read that NBC, in their infinite wisdom, is cancelling it and replacing it with a reality show about real wedding crashers.

I just wrote the following to nbcshows@nbc.com

===================================
Hello,

I just read that your network is cancelling The Black Donnellys and replacing it with a reality show about REAL wedding crashers. That's an April Fool's joke, right? Right??

Surely you people can't be delusional enough to yank one of the most gripping shows to come along in years. I find it very hard to believe and even harder to accept.

Maybe "Donnellys" was better suited for HBO or some other network who has the cojones to air shows that push the boundaries of television. If your idea of pushing boundaries is "Deal or No Deal" or "The Real Wedding Crashers", I'd look for better medication; the stuff you have obviously isn't curbing the dementia.

You can thank Jeebus for Heroes, The Office and My Name is Earl because that's all you guys have. So, can I expect these three shows to get the hook soon too?

I wouldn't be at all surprised.

I wonder what's on Fox...

Slainte mhath...or not.
===================================

I urge any fans of the show to write in...like it would do any good. I feel better anyway. Fuckers.

never did watch, but looked decent.

I saw it once and i thought it was ok. but this new show sounds geh.

i caught a few episodes. The storyline interested me, but they didn't execute it in a way that made me want to watch every episode. I think if they had a different director or writer or something, they could produce an awesome show. But as it is, I found myself just not caring about the show. It's a shame considering what they are gonna replace it with...

Also, I liked that "Surface" show they had on a couple years ago, but they canceled that after one season too!

Very true.

It woulda been an AWESOME HBO show. Ah well... annoy:

Fox > NBC anyway. Write to HBO tell them to pick it up.
