Today, surprisingly, I feel sorry for some of the most talented and attractive people in America. Who are they? All the actors and actresses who were cast members of the 77 tv series that were cancelled this year. One begins a series with high hopes: It will be successful, picked up, run for years, make me rich and famous. Then bam, it's cancelled, and you're out of work and not sure whether you'll get another shot at fame. That's a horrible situation. I'm sure in most cases the cancellation was justified judging from how bad most shows are. But there have to be cases where it was an excellent vehicle and the network didn't give it a chance. Many of televisions most successful series were nearly cancelled after a year or two, then went on to become major moneymaking successes. Seinfeld, for instance, got a slow start. I'm sure that every actor in every series feels that the person or persons who cancelled it is an idiot. I'm also sure they're probably right.
Note: See Dad Run is just one of the 77 cancelled series. So even having a name star in the cast doesn't help.
