Didn't carpoolers get cancelled?


Dunno, thought it was affected by the writers strike. Ugh, why do they cancel my shows!

As for Lost, I think the long hiatus' in december and january killed alot of the momentum. I love the show and I stick with it because I want to see it through. Those big breaks really kill shows though. I loved the show Invasion that was on after Lost. It was picking up steam and then they canceled it.

Carpoolers is on the DL list...It has not been officially cancelled, but does not have high enough ratings to keep airing.

Nip/Tuck is my second favorite show on. Las Vegas was a favorite until it just got stupid the last 2 seasons. I watch a lot of the crime shows on Court TV.

LOST Season 3: Available Tuesday on DVD.


See I think for those who havent seen it so far, they should wait till they are all out on dvd and watch them. It will make sense and they will flow better. Waiting week to week and over the year, sucks and you lose so much info along the way. The writers are geniuses, but its too complex for as many breaks as there are.

I cant wait for the x-files movie next summer. I miss that show and nothing has really filled that void. Started to watch nightstalker and miracles, of which both were canceled. Ugh.

I have had Season 3 for about 2 months now, but it is tken from the internet and the dubbing is off by 2-3 seconds on some episodes. Now I can finally have a clean version.

I've got the season 3 finale still saved on my DVR from last spring. I can't wait to watch it again to get a refresher right before the new season starts!

We have the entire last season on our DVR. Jeff made me keep it so that he could start watching it a few weeks before the season starts.

I cannot wait for LOST to start! Kind of sucks that as of now, they're only airing 8 episodes because of the writers strike, but maybe... just maybe if they get things settled soon, they can write the other 8.

Season 3 was pretty weak and appeared to have jumped the shark for the first half of the season, but you can't deny that the 2nd half of the season really started to kick things up a notch. Can't wait to get it on DVD.

I hear that filming season 4, they've brought back a lot of the things that made the first two seasons so great, like the shakier camera, and the darker, mysterious aspects of the island. I didn't like how season 3 kind of ruined the mystique of the Others by portraying them as ordinary people, but if some of the rumors I've been hearing about season 4 are true, there's a whole mess of scarier stuff on the Island than the Others ever were. :wideeyed:

Lost WAS the best prime time show, but it jumped the shark last season and is just getting downright silly. Heroes is the best prime time show on right now.

Listen, I love both shows, but there is no way you can call Lost "silly" and Heroes not silly. I mean it's a show about people with super powers for god's sake.

I loved Mr. Eko, but DL was one of my favorite characters in Heroes and they just killed him off for no reason. If you didn't think the "Hiro in ancient Japan" story arc was just downright ridiculous I don't know what else to say. My wife stopped watching the show once we were in like Episode 4 of the second season because she thought Hiro in feudal Japan was so dumb she couldn't stand the show anymore.

Claire is really starting to annoy me too, we're on like a season of a half of her spending 75% of her on screen time crying.

People are really invested in their show... I think there might be a throw down in this thread at some point. :wideeyed:

I think LOST is a great show.
Season 1 was fantastic. Season 2 seemed to lose it's way for a while and then Season 3 really seemed to recapture the magic in the second half.
I don't know why Ecko was such a popular character. I personally didn't like him but to each his own. Locke rocks.

They had to kill Ecko off because the actor who played him had family issues and needed to leave the show.

In the land of the imaginary, I dunno. Maybe he dropped acid and joined a bee gees cover band. Im sure they will have an explanation.
