Season Finales Part 1: Series Finales

i hate the words season and finales when they are joined together. season finale...ugh. now we tv viewers can be subjected to more mindless reality programing. but as bad as these season finales hit us it's the series finales that can really get to us. this season i lost two favortes: 'brothers and sisters' and 'lie to me'.



for sure ' b and s' may have hit spotty recently but it still had some wonderful story lines most notably kevin and scooty and gay adoption. it was handled with great sensitivity. and uncle saul's coming out at 70+ seemed perfectly logical and real and was sensitively done.

i must admit i will miss dinner with the walkers. and drinking wine with them yet not quite as much as them. i will miss sally field and rachel griffiths most of all. i will miss their scenes together above all. they were like two great dancers together who never missed a beat.


'lie to me' was one of tv's best. it just never seemed to find an audience. what does it say that all the nonsense reality shows do find an audience. it means america is getting dumber year by year. i hope that the wonderful kelli williams gets another show soon. i will miss ger disarming charm the most.



i will miss 'v'. i can't quite figure out why it did not arner more viewers. it's a shame really.



and that's it. no other cancellation has me missing them already at all. i think i will not ever miss them at all.
