Please bring back the show! I never missed a single episode. It is smart and funny and would be a mistake to drop. I also had friends and family that were begining to watch and loved it!!
This is a great show that is designed for people who actually have an IQ. Don't cave to all of the execs that merely look at numbers instead of good television.
Please don't cancel this show!!! This show has intelligent writing & a superior, chemistry strong cast!!! Please realize that this show has great appeal for adult audiences who enjoy thought-provoking t.v. - the very same audience members who have the purchasing power sought by your sponsors. Not ALL of the viewing public wants to watch ONLY Reality shows &/or in-your-face comedies ... MANY of us like shows that not only entertain our funny bones but also our brains. Please start catering to us, too.
Give this show some more time, and move it to a better time slot; if you've already dumped a ton of money into it, why not spend a bit more to see if you can't recover it?
Love the writing on this show, and the cast don't fail it. At least let us see out the season NBC. Have some respect for the audience, even if the figures don;t add up for you...
This is a show worth staying up for! Please don't cancel this show. It's a rare find to have intellectual comedy combined with relevent situations in a Network Televsion series.
Please, please keep this smart, entertaining smart show. Best of tv since SportsNight. I will buy every S60 DVD, and shirt. Just keep this show. Still hurt by "The Book of Daniel." Keep this one at least.
This is not a cookie cutter show.I can watch a CSI, or Law and Order show any night of the week. I have no attraction to reality TV. It's not West Wing nor Sport Night but it's
a quality show that has interesting plotlines.Please don't cancel !
There should be at least one smart show on TV... I used to be able to trust NBC to do this, but who knows. The character chemistry and dialogue were/are excellent.
What is it with television companies condoning crap like reality tv shows and cancelling anything intelligent? Imagine the television programmers meetings: "Quick, the public are thinking - Make it stop!"
Studio 60 rules. I so look forward to Monday nites. Who cares about Black Donnellys? and I don't like the SciFi of Heroes. I could not find future Studio 60 episodes when I did a search on my satellite. No episodes to air ever again?? don't do this. please, please keep this show on!!
It's funny, really, because I haven't watched a single show on NBC since Seinfeld went away. I came to S60 from Heroes, which I only found on the SciFi channel in the first place (I don't know if it still does, but Heroes used to replay on Fridays on SciFi, which is how I found out about it . Finding that I could watch it four days earlier on NBC was just a bonus...) I then stuck around for S60 because of the cast. I had no idea who Sorkin was and had/still haven't ever seen a single second of West Wing (and couldn't care less). S60, though, was a show that I grew to love. Now I look forward to Mondays. Because I have TiVo, I can watch The Class, 24, Heroes, and Studio 60, all on the same night...and believe me, I stay up to watch them all on the same night! Studio 60 is always last, and it's how I've enjoyed closing my Monday nights for a while now. Apparently, the idiots that run television these days are as pathetic as the rest of mainstream America, always looking for that instant gratification, that little pill that will make us fit into the perfect outfit, give us perfect skin, great teeth, a killer bod, and a 500-year lifespan. Well, I've got news for you: life doesn't work that way! You need to actually 1) promote shows when they're new and 2) give them a chance to bring in an audience. I had no idea that Studio 60 was coming to TV. I just so happened to be able to put Heroes onto my TiVo for Mondays on this network and just so happened to luck into this show. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had a clue. That's no way to bring people to your programming. Because of this, I'm so reluctant to give anything on the major networks even a minuscule bit of a chance. I'm just sick and tired of liking a show and then having the rug pulled from under me. I guess I'm fortunate that some of the shows I have liked have stuck around, but for how
Up until recently I hated network television. My viewing hours were dedicated to cable programs, but as of late, it seemed like NBC was finally getting its act back together with smart and engaging comedies and dramas. It's been years since I would be heading out to work on a Monday morning dreading the drive and remembering, "Oh yeah Heroes and Studio 60 are on tonight!", and feel like I had something to look forward to watching at the end of the night when I was winding down and getting ready for work on Tuesday. Drop Studio 60 and it's right back to the History Channel for me.
Please keep Studio 60. Wikipedia reports that Studio 60 as #1 of all shows watched from recordings (think Tivo and DVR), adding ~1 million viewers each week to the grand total. That should be factored into the conventional ratings. Please find another time slot for Studio 60.
So many of the great shows in our lifetimes were given a chance to find their audience. Many of them aired on NBC. Networks are so quick to pull the plug -- and all due to a ratings system that measures such a small portion of the audience -- and an advertising system that relies on a few inflated months worth of programming. Let these shows mature, find their audience. Clearly, the current system of pulling programs after so few airings is not working. Whatever happened to the value of frequency in building a brand?
I was shocked to see that Studio 60 was not on tv tonight! It is a great show- witty and fun. One of the few shows I turn on my tv to watch. Keep the show NBC...please:)
This is so sad. Why doesn't NBC realize they have a good thing here? I guess they really don't care what the viewers want. And as far as ratings, how can they be a good tool to judge when there are so many interuptions with the schedule, not enough notice to viewers as to what is actually going on, etc. This musical shows and we're on one week but not the next two and we may be back the third week is insanity. The show itself did not fail, the people to like to juggle the schedules are the failures. And one more thing, what's the deal with not letting people know that a show isn't going to be on any more? Are they really that afraid of getting slammed with complaints?
After letting one of your military analyst rage on about how U.S. troops are mercenaries this bonehead move doesn't surprise me at all. Decisions like this is why NBC has been overtaken in the ratings by all the other studios. That’s why advertising dollars are down, not because the show doesn't bring in an audience. Keep it up NBC if you want to go the route of the Dodo.
