Possible TV cancellations

TV.com is reporting on some possible TV cancellations. Among them missing is Scrubs which I thought was going to be a shoe in considering all that has happened with the creative team, writer's guild, and network switch. The whole purpose afterall was too give it a proper send off, but than again I guess that makes it not a proper cancellation.

Of the shows listed are three I ACTUALLY care about. Not so uncommon since I watch a embarrassing amount of television in the first place:

1) Castle- Nathan Fillion just cannot catch a break. He has the looks, talent, and charisma to rival Brad Pitt and George Clooney yet he stars in mostly failed tv shows. Fox infamously fucked up Firefly from the get-go, but Castle had some great potential. Good cast, great gimmick, decent storyline. It could have taken off if given a proper chance, not questioning renewal mid-season.

2) Chuck- I am surprised to see this here considering how consistently good and critically accepted it has been. With Jay Leno getting an hour spot during each weeknight primetime schedule, each day is going to lose a show no matter what. I'm betting Chuck stays though.

3) Reaper- Son of the Devil tries to make good is a very promising storyline. The cast is delightfully quriky and too loveable for their own damn good. Ray Wise does an excellent Devil, Bret Harrison is a very relateable guy, and Missy Peregrym, a past Hottie of the Week on this blog, is hot as hell.

Castle barely got out of the starting gate, Chuck seems to be going strong, and Reaper has already avoided cancellation once. Is just a damn shame that these shows could possibly join The Black Donnellys, Firefly, and Carnivale in the ranks of the cancelled-too-soon.
