Stop me before I talk about a new tv series again!

Looking back over the past season of television, I couldn't help but notice that in nearly every time I mentioned a new TV series, it was dropped from the schedule faster than a hot potato. I was like the blogger angel of death of television... if I discuss a show, it dies!

I mean, in just the past few weeks, I wrote about both Greek and The Knights of Prosperity and the week that I did, ABC stopped showing them on network TV. And I championed Smith when it first came on, as well as Studio 60.

It seemed like as long as I didn't write about particular shows, they would seem to do alright, but once I spoke up, Bam! it was permanent hiatus time. That is especially true of Knights, as I avoided talking about the show until I thought it was safe. And as soon as I did, it got canned.

Let's see the shows that I wrote about that didn't make it:

Smith
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
Daybreak
3 Lbs
The Knights of Prosperity
Greek

What made it:

Ugly Betty(really, I couldn't have killed it, even if I wanted to)
Shark(maybe the fact that I gave up on it saved it in the end... that or the CSI lead-in)

I guess it is a good thing I never watched Heroes and thus wrote about a lot of the other shows that people really liked this season, as I could have easily put the whammy on them as well.

So my new pledge is to write only about shows I hated and ones that are established. I think that should keep things at the television morgue a little slower.
