So, I am a person that really enjoys watching movies and TV shows. I have my own little list of programs that I enjoy watching every week. Different programs on different days!

Now, here is what I don't really get, but in a way I do. Why is it that the "good" shows are only shown through the fall and winter months? You know, you start watching one show on a certain channel and then before you know it you have a show or two every night of the week, except maybe not on Saturday. Why is that? Why can't the TV stations show part of the good stuff all year round? They could stop having two or three good shows on the same night. Show just one and save the others for the spring and summer months.

Not knowing why they schedule things the way they do, I can only  guess at the reasons. One reason, and really the only thing I can thing of is that folks normally take their vacations in the spring and summer months. That may cause a drop in ratings for a show. Most folks are not going to be worry about missing their shows when they go on vacation. You think?

Any way, taking into consideration that most folks are on cable or satellite, and most have a VCR or DVR, the argument for the spring and summer months seem to not hold as much weight. Plus, cable has a Prime time on demand station and you can watch all you favorites whenever you like. So, now I am back to square one, why can't the TV stations line up their programming so that you can see at least one good show every night?

Then there is the dreadful "cancellation " of one of your favorites and you will never see it again, only reruns from here on out. For example "CSI: Miami" has been canceled but it wasn't until after the season finale had aired that the word came out it would not be back next fall due to ratings. What? Not be back? But what about Callie and her new life as a mother? What about that girl that was new in the lab? Last we saw of her she was packing a bag and leaving. What is Ryan going to do when he finds her gone? The questions that he feels she holds the answers to, what about that? What about all of this?

My feeling, and I know there are others out there that feel the same way, they need to at least have an episode or two to tie up the lose ends, new story lines that had just started. The network, not the stations, has let it most valuable possession, the viewer, hanging like a cat hanging in a tree holding on because it's not sure what is going to happen if it lets go! How can people continue to have faith in the network/station that appears not to really care what it's audience feels.

Is it too much to ask that they at least tie up the loose ends the show has? Are there others of you that have experienced the same thing just with a different show and/or TV networks? So, I guess I will sit and wonder for the next 3 - 4 months what I will be watching on the TV or at least until the fall season starts back up. It will be there that I have to really look at what is on and what I am going to be watching. My understanding is that there are going to be several new shows coming out this fall.
Until then or the next program/movie I watch, I'll close for now. Please remember that this is just my opinion, for what it is worth.. Later...
