So I don't know if you've heard but a lot of TV from 2008 wont be joining us for 2009. For some shows this is bittersweet and for others it is a welcome relief. So here is a list of some of the TV programs that wont be joining us for 2009:

(*- Program is not cancelled but is concluding or receiving a proper ending)

The two I am going to miss most are Battlestar Galactica and Boston Legal. At least they are both ending with an actual ending beside getting canceled though I guess.

Spike Feresten had his late night show on FOX on saturday nights. I hope he finds other things to do, some of his stuff was pretty hilarious. But the low-production values made the show depressing to watch. But then again Craig Ferguson seems to do just fine.

The only shows I ever watched on that list are Stargate Atlantis and Battlestar Galactica, so I'm not super bummed about not having the rest of those around. I hadn't heard about the next Stargate spinoff...looking forward to that for sure.

With BSG gone, I really don't think there is anything good on TV at all anymore besides maybe In Treatment.

Quite a few bummers there, I don't know, I just liked Kath and Kim for some reason, King of the Hill shouldn't be cancelled, I didn't watch Pushing Daisies, but I heard good things.

The new series is called Stargate Universe. It has been said to be mor "dark and edgy," will be more accessible to newcomers and  more heavily based on the interactions between the characters. I don't know, I was never really that into Stargate so take that for what it's worth.

Don't watch anything on there besides Monk and that's not on a regular basis. Prison Break needed to last 2 seasons max but they had to push it out longer cause people loved it.

The real good news is that a DVD set of the complete series is scheduled to release on September 29, 2009 though.

Talkshow with Spike is being canceled?! WTF

His late-night was actually enjoying to watch. I mean, c'mon, there is a portion in the show that is dedicated to pot smokers!

God dammit, he will be missed.

King of the Hill?!?!?!


Pushing Daisies?!?!?!

Prison Break?!?!?!?!

Also, I thought The L Word and Kyle XY were relatively popular shows.  What's the deal with those?!

According to Jim...man, that sucks that they are getting the axe.

Meanwhile, Bionic Woman is getting to continue?!?!

No justice in this world.  NO justice...  This feels like when Dead Like Me got cancelled.

..seriously? King of the Hill isn't funny at all (well ok, I think I laughed once when Hank put on Boone's outfit and said "Why am I wearing the hat?"), and Prison Break has been pretty much is the shitter since season 2.

Quite a shame though, Prison Break was genius first season, but there were too many unanswered questions for them to stop there.

Ehhhhhhhhh, I'm getting conflicting reports about that. Apparently some want to continue the show using the interns only. Whether or not this will be a spinoff or a continuation of the original has yet to be decided so I'm not posting Scrubs yet (the same goes for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles so people please stop PMing me about that.)

About 4 of those are one's I might miss. I loved Talk Show with Spike Feresten (Hollywood Douchebags,  Idiot Paparazzi, Discriminav, Shaolin Cats and that DTV switch ad were hilarious) and he had interesting interviews plus he wrote for Seinfeld.

I retract my previous statement. Further research has revealed that the sixth season will infact be the last and will continue into 2010.
