Which TV Shows Got Canceled This Year?

Posted by Michael Dance

Chuck survived. So did, surprisingly, Dollhouse. 90210 and Gossip Girl will live to fight another day, and a new Melrose Place is coming, but the proposed Gossip Girl spin-off? Dead before it even got started.

Here's an (almost) master list of the network shows that didn't make the cut, thanks to EW's Michael Ausiello:

ABC

Cupid
In the Motherhood
Samantha Who?
The Unusuals
Pushing Daisies
Dirty Sexy Money

CBS

Eleventh Hour
Harper's Island
The Unit
Without a Trace
Worst Week

FOX

King of the Hill
Prison Break
Sit Down, Shut Up
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

NBC

Kath & Kim
Kings
Knight Rider
Life
Lipstick Jungle
Medium
My Name is Earl

CW

Everybody Hates Chris
The Game
Privileged
Reaper

Two caveats: ABC is looking at picking up My Name is Earl, and CBS is looking at picking up Medium.

Anybody else get the impression that the networks need to rethink their strategies in marketing these shows? I follow this stuff for a living, and I only have the faintest notion of what the heck In the Motherhood, Sit Down Shut Up, Eleventh Hour, and Privileged are even about.

Well, too late now. They're all dead in the water.

   Dirty sexy money was the best show ever. A little mystery, a little comedy, and a little love. Bring it back.
