@Danson With Myself:disqus - the problem is that Hulu can't stream for shit many places. My wife tries watching some of her favorite shows on Hulu for TiVO, and the damned thing hiccups so much the program comes off like a collage rather than a show! This was after we'd gotten 100/100 Mbps FiOS soon as it was…

Lilyhammer was a pickup from Norwegian television, so technically it wasn't cancelled by NetFlix but by Norway's NRK1 Television Network Channel.

@avclub-b90391459007fbc002dee3084fef650b:disqus - funny, I watch movies and television shows with zero White people in them all the time, as do I believe most of us here. Marco Polo just sucked on its own - it played like Michael Bay doing a wuxia without enough money to go bonkers over.

Oh, please, don't tempt me, @tarvolt:disqus !

Person of Interest, @avclub-eac75edc18b8546c46893fe4b75ab995:disqus ?

I used to love The Time Tunnel when I was a kid, @avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus ! It was the "Sci-Fi" show my parents would let me watch, because ::mumble:: Star Trek gave me nightmares….

@avclub-eac75edc18b8546c46893fe4b75ab995:disqus , yes, as I found out once I actually bothered to try a Google search - which I should've done in the first place before asking!

So did Timeless survive, or was the execution too hacky for the talent in front of and behind the camera to save…?

Oh, I'm sure that's what it is, @avclub-d4b71849c09966807daf9cfa2f17e43b:disqus ! Or something like that….

Probably Dad's bright idea….

I always kind of liked it,@disqus_Pl90eY9Rcf:disqus - admittedly, originally for the punchline value of "Well, it's Castle - only in this case rather than a Horny Mystery Writer, he's quite literally The Ex-Lord of Hell!" But unlike Castle, the writing is never less than good and is often extraordinary, capturing some…

You mean like this, @dollarbird:disqus ?

@avclub-eb058ced22520c3a8f4e4a6e2fb16403:disqus - either that, or they had a series closer scene already shot, like Castle did, in case they found out they'd been cancelled before the final episode aired.

Which, given Katt is Barbara Hale's son, leads to some interesting speculation about just how friendly Della and Paul actually were, @avclub-5b8e4fd39d9786228649a8a8bec4e008:disqus ….

@avclub-92f5a60197aa431bb062e866c39b4114:disqus - didn't they just keep shooting scenes with Larry Hagman in a hotel room talking with people over the phone until a day or two before his death, because he just wanted to keep working as long as he could? They'd shot the scene where somebody comes in the room and shoots…

L&O was, at least, able to give Lenny an actual send-off, by having him retire and pop up as a recurring DA's Investigator character in Law & Order: Trial By Jury, until Jerry Orbach died. I get the feeling he (and Dick Wolf) had hoped Orbach had at least another year or two in him to have committed to to that…

Because they switched out one of the stars of the television series in mid-show, @disqus_Vdpok1MQrS:disqus . Supporting characters had been switched out before, usually by having a different actor play a different but similar character - though The George Burns & Gracie Allen Show did it by George Burns openly…

@avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus - given it's like every actress who happens by Vancouver or North Carolina has ended up in a few of those (I remember seeing both Gabrielle Anwar and Amy Acker turn up in Hallmark Original Movies - Acker doing a Magic Pixie Dream Girl in a Christmas one!), I shouldn't…

Not that fat, @Matthew_Blanchette:disqus - he's gotten beefier, sure, but he still looks in surprisingly good shape for a guy in his late Forties.

There's this picture in his attic, @wrightstuff76:disqus - it'll show up in the finale of Bones, when Brennan inadvertently destroys it thinking it's just one of those things her husband's illogically hung up on, and he'll age rapidly until he turns into J.K. Simmons!
