USA didn’t cancel Monk, the series creator(s) & Tony Shaloub ended it for new adventures. Plain Sight I’m not sure if canceled by USA. Monk’s ratings were still great!
I feel bad for all the shows beaten by “Minnie’s Bow-Toons”.
@Tiger Williams
Yep, the Lakers bring the ratings.
Common Law, holding steady from it’s premier, good for it. I love the ID channel numbers for the wee hours of the morning.
Common Law sucks IMO. No chemistry between the two guys.
So programmes which are not exaggerated with adverts can get some viewers but when it is advertised a lot like victorious and Icarly, they only get 2 million views

Thanks again Nick!
I love Common Law!! I’m very pleased that so many people returned to watch the 2nd episode. We may have a keeper!!
Fairly Legal is soooo good. When they switched showrunners after season one I was a little worried but this season has been even better!!
