2014-15 TV Cancellations: Under the Dome canned, what will CBS do with CG cows next?

Community had a fine enough finale. It's wrong to say it was cancelled in the same vein as something like Hannibal. They ended it on their own terms. And they made it quite clear that they didn't know whether they'd want to continue with one more season or not and made it quite plain that they probably wouldn't do a season.

It had as natural of an ending as you can give a show about a college where everyone has been going for 6 years. Eventually it just gets ridiculous. At least they got to give it a finale that actually finalizes things. I'd say it ended on its own terms. It was not cancelled. The cancellation is just a formality to finalize it in the minds of the fans so people can drop all hope for another season that the creators already knew wouldn't be happening anyway.
 
At the time Community started - and even now - weren't/aren't seven year contracts more common? I wonder why Sony went with six year contracts instead.

i think the show ended on the best series finale it had, out of the three that were intended to be series finales. it wasn't rushed like 3's, and it wasn't bland like 4's. season 6's ending had the most sincerity to it, and was satisfying for it.
 
Public Morals posters are kinda awesome.

They aren't "kinda awesome", they're absolutely fucking fantastic and I want them all. Too bad that the series itself reminds me a lot of Mob City which wasn't particularly good.

Yeah. I'm not sure if it will be good. We'll see. But the show interests me.
Also it looks too digital and clean, and it needs a bigger budget.
 
Community was on yahoo? Ha, didn't even know yahoo had any videos at all. I don't think I've ever seen anything on yahoo
 
Cerie Xerox is in a new show?!

Also, the main poster for Public Morals:

And, like, wasn't this show on also on TNT a few years ago? And called Mob City? What's the difference? (I realize there's actually a difference because these are two different shows, but, c'mon).

I want to say 6 is a standard because even the modern Star Trek shows had 6 year contracts for the actors (which is why Terry Ferrel was able to leave DS9 for Becker).

Hrm, that probably explains why some shows have that awkward transition phase when the show seems successful but they end up replacing writers in spite of that.

Nah, not really. It's not like you have to keep anyone for 3 years or that people necessarily need to stay if they don't want to (though that gets a bit dicier).

Ahh, I guess that's probably the easier answer to why staff changes happen. lol

It was absolut horrible, by far the worst season and even season 4 was only saved by the darkest timelime episode.

I don't have a comment on the quality of the show, but Dan on his podcast made it seem like he was ready to be done with the show as he was working on it.
 
Wait, I thought Katrina Bowden only existed to be a joke character in everything, she has a serious role? Now I'm intrigued.
 
Community seasons 1-3 were by far the best (and the only ones that are full seasons; don't know if that played a part or not). 4 was terrible, 5 was mediocre, and 6 was good. I loved the show but I'm ready for it to be done.
 
I would assume 2015 will top last year by a healthy margin with nearly 5 months left to go. It really is insane.

Insane is right. I keep telling myself I'll cut back on some of the shows I watch but I almost never do.

Spitters are quitters, and I certainly wouldn't want to strike anyone as a quitter.
