    Quantico is ABC, not Fox. 🙂

    I really liked Chance. I am about halfway into to the 2nd and last season. Will also miss Black Matter.

    Berlin Station isn't talked about, but is very good. That is coming back for a third season though, so off topic, I know.

    Oh so sad to see Mozart in the Jungle go...the first show I've ever binged watched, a lovely homage to the arts--though in a way I'm not surprised. It was too quirky, soulful and warm to survive in an era where nuance gets trampled by monsters and murderers at every turn. I will always remember these characters, that's for sure. Long live Rodrigo y Hai-a-lie!

      Have you seen Slings and Arrows? It is a Canadian show about a Shakespeare play company. It reminds me of Mozart in the Jungle, I really liked it for the same reasons. I think it is a bit funnier too.

      I've heard of it but can't find anywhere to stream it. Sounds good, but nothing can replace the chemistry of MITJ. I think Garcia Bernal is fantastic in that role. But, thanks for the tip, I'll look for it at the library or something.

      I just did a search and found at least some episodes on youtube. Encore channel, not sure what that is, but it looks like they play with no issues. If you do a search for the show a Vulture article comes up and lead me to the Youtube. I remember wondering if the show was my cup of tea in the first episode, but then grew on me real quick. I purchased the whole series for close to $40, but now see it listed for $190 or so on Amazon. Way too high.

      I just read more of the article:

      " After a lengthy absence from easily accessible platforms, the show

      is now available to stream for free on a YouTube channel called Encore+ (the first two seasons are up now; hopefully season three will be up soon). Encore+ is a treasure trove of Canadian television,..............."

      I guess Canadian TV put up a bunch of shows on Encore for free, and that is just one of them.

    I am going to miss the Middle SO MUCH! 12 Monkeys, OTOH, I cannot wait to see how it ends! (Although I will also miss the show, it's time.)

    It's a little early to put "A Series of Unfortunate Events" on there considering Season 2 hasn't even been released yet. Yes, it will naturally end in Season 3, but the way this article is worded it makes it seem like it will be gone soon.

    And I was one of 10 people who liked Disjointed. It was dumb, but a good mindless show to watch.

    I liked The Brave, but I guess I was in the minority. I just wasn’t a fan of The Doctor and got hooked on The Brave right away. Good strong cast and scripts. To bad it was up against The Doctors. Positive show about our military. Wish another channel would pick it up.

    Also liked The Night Shift and Designated Survivor, but knew it was doomed when they killed off the First Lady. Stupid move.

    Several of my favorites were cancelled. Notably SCORPION, DESIGNATED SURVIOR, but in a way it makes things easier for me. I have less to binge watch and more time to write and to read. I will miss those two shows the most.

    BlueSailboat

    Brooklyn 911 is no where near as quality a show as are SCORPION AND LUCIFER!! RE- UPPING BROOKLYN is definitely playing favorites. Its not a really funny show; its stupid!! Please re up Scorpion and Lucifer

    So, Kevin Can Wait seemed like a horrible show, and it's been cancelled. But CBS did NOT cancel Man With a Plan?? That one looked even worse.

    1. C

      Personally I find Man With A Plan had far better story lines and humor but just my preference I guess.

    i'm a little surprised The CW renewed Legends of Tomorrow. I like it, but it's a quirky show, and doesn't have the glamour or pedigree of the other superhero shows.

    1. G

      GoldSubmarine

      I don't think CW's LoT renewal was ever in doubt. The ratings have been on par with most of the other super hero shows.

    2. R

      RedCupcake

      I'm glad the show does as well as it's been doing... sometimes I feel like this show is the "red-headed stepchild" in the CW superhero family. But I'm glad, just the same. 🙂

    3. G

      GoldSubmarine

      I double checked the season averages, LoT performs slightly better than Arrow (lowest rated super hero show on broadcast) and a tick below SuperGirl. Flash and Black Lightning lead the pack. And from what I read online, super hero fans are enjoying LoT even more than Flash this season (last season as well).

    4. R

      RedCupcake

      Ah, very interesting, thanks. That does surprise me, especially the part about Arrow having the lowest rating of the DC family. I'm glad Black Lightning is doing well, even though I no longer watch it. I never got into The Flash, it doesn't interest me.

    I like The Crossing...you had yo pay close attention and watch it every episode..

    OliveDice

    Thanks for the list - putting these all in one place! I'm sorry to see The Mayor go. That show was funny! But at least ABC let The Middle stay for 9 years and leave when it wanted to! I LOVED that show!!!

    PurpleHammer

    Brooklyn Nine-Nine had no business making it this long. It, and The Mick are two drops that I'm glad to see.

    The Americans...I'm glad when there is a final season. Can't stand when they cancel a show without finishing the story.

    Really going to miss The Middle and The Americans. How's that for dichotomy? 😁

  17. R

    RedCupcake

    Sad about The Librarians. Actually, I'm sort of surprised the show lasted as many seasons as it did. And it ended in a good place, I think.

  18. R

    RedCupcake

    Wow. I know I don't currently watch anything on NBC, but I've never heard of the two shows they cancelled. Or wait, maybe I have... is Harry the Harry Connick show? If so, I thought it was in syndication, as I've seen it listed on my TV guide on one of the syndicated channels. And also, I thought it had been on for longer than 2 seasons.

    As for the cable or streaming channels, I really have never heard of most of them.

    (Why are some titles in italics, and others not? Poor editing, perhaps??

    1. C

      CyanCoathanger

      Yes, Harry's talk show is syndicated, but it's distributed by NBC Universal. Night Shift is a summer series about medical personnel that work in a hospital emergency room. It's a pretty good show. All the titles are in italics now.

    2. R

      RedCupcake

      OK thanks, I didn't realize that about Harry. And I swear I've been seeing it on my guide for more than two seasons. Now I'm suddenly seeing ads for another talk show that I've never heard of before, and which looks totally horrible. But then, most non-scripted show look totally horrible to me. (Except for documentaries.)
