I have to agree with the other two reviews that have been posted so far. I loved Reaper, I love The Loop, and I loved Sons of Tucson. There are a few other shows I loved as well and they were canceled before being given a chance. I am curious about the ratings of Survivor at this point. I would have to think they are much lower than they used to be yet they keep churning out show-after-show of fake drama.
Day Break was another one that got axed early and it was only slated for 13 episodes at the very beginning. What's the point of canceling it when it is slated as only one season? Viewer outcry at least drove the network to run the rest of the episodes online as I believe the Black Donnellys might have as well.
I think it is time to do more than the Nielson system. I cannot understand, with all of the other unwanted intrusion in our lives, why cable cannot just do real time ratings as well as take into account DVRs, online viewing, etc...
