At one time it was NBC's top rated show and after last seasons viewer number fell to under 5M, they have decided to cancel the show with no wrap up.

I have to admit the show clearly went south even though I kept watching.
Now after watching 1 great season (season 1) and one solid season(season 2) and then two bad seasons, I feel that I am do some closure.

Even if it is a two hour episode tv movie type finale.

NBC loves to do this to shows. Networks should have an agreement with shows for another season prior to the shows final days of shooting so this doesn't happen.

NBC has screwed me on Heroes,Journeyman, and Las Vegas.
I will cut them some slack on Journeyman since it was a first year show, but it was the best of all these.

Las Vegas is still one of my all time fav shows and I watch it everyday at 11-1 on TNT

I watched Heroes the 1st year but it was terrible placement on Mondays against 24 and 2 1/2 Men...especially when the ratings were dropping

UPDATED Renewal scorecard: What's in? What's Out? What's in limbo?
by Michael Ausiello
Categories: News
?Tis the season to start feeling anxious about the fate of your favorite programs. Over the next several months, the broadcast networks will be deciding which ?bubble? shows will be back next season and which will transition to the imaginary MIA Network. To help you keep track of what?s in, what?s out, and what?s in serious jeopardy, I?ve once again compiled this handy cheat sheet of the shows that are likeliest ? and unlikeliest ? to be renewed for the 2010-11 TV season. (I?ve also included those programs that have already been renewed.) My advice to you? Bookmark this page and check back for updates. It could be a matter of life or cancellation.
