Americans = Cancelled show!!


I cant believe the Americans, bloody typical... selfish!!

We now cant see a full series of Runaway just because of THEM!! Urgggg

They do this all the time, slate shows so badly and never watch them only because the Americans are so obsessed with watching the most stupid programme i have ever heard of "Americas Top Model", so they get cancelled then the UK gets its for around 10 episodes then we never get to see it again!!

I just hate the Americans. (and Sky!!)

I quite agree but not as strongly!! If they want to get a proper idea if they should cancel a show or not they should look at the ratings for it in all the Countries they show it not just America!! Cos Runaway was a good show and cancelled it cos bad ratings there but the ratings for it here in Europe might have been better!! Also they cancelled some great shows like "My So Called Life"!! They should give it a fair chance everywhere not just go by the American Ratings!!

I know!!!! It's so annoying! I live in London, England, and there have been so many great shows that I loved and then found out that they got cancelled because it wasn't getting good ratings in America! 'Life As We Know It' is one show I loved, it did really well over here, but it got cancelled because of the American ratings!

I am an american and I love the show to. Runaway was up against heavy competion the show was facing against Heroes when it was mondays then when they move it to sundays it was up against Desperate Housewives. Heroes and Desperate Housewives are the biggest shows on tv. not to be mean here the show was ranking about one million viewers a week
