You're right. Cable loves to endlessly renew flops.

Not sure what you mean by that? Did you see something he wrote that wasn't awful?

And still losing a huge slice of its lead-in, but ABC is too afraid to try new shows for fear they'd do even worse.

Except Slater is a good actor (and older than Fillion - if anything Fillion is the new Slater ;) )

Couldn't disagree more. It was virtually unwatchable (I tried because I love the lead actor). The pilot was embarrassingly awful.

Yes. Hollywood shuns the people who succeed and have talent and embraces the hacks who fail.

I will once again point out that 18-49 numbers are irrelevant except as PR spin smoke.

The lazy camerawork is the reason I do not watch Modern Family and have never watched The Office.

Sadly, that's the way Hollywood works.
