ABC couldn't handle an intelligent show


ABC, the home of such "stellar" shows as Brothers & Sisters and Desperate Housewives (and I'm only scratching the surface here, folks) has, in their almighty ignorance, cancelled Detroit 1-8-7. Hopefully another network will step up to keep this terrific show going. It deserved more than one season.

Probably far too late to move elsewhere, but it was a pretty good show, and saw some solid development.

I still miss it. I just don't miss it on a regular basis because ABC pre-empted it so often, that it was hard to keep up with when it aired.

Over the years ABC has always been a little timid in their programming choices. Nothing ground-breaking or contraversial.

A heart can be broken, but it still keeps a-beatin' just the same.
