After having time to digest the news I am still not over it. ABC has cancelled Desperate Housewives, one of my favorite shows. They will make the 8th season the last season, instead of the 9th that was planned. Their reason, too expensive. When the show premiered it was averaging 24 million viewers, last season it averaged 12 million. That is still very high. There are so many channels to choose from and so many people are choosing to watch TV shows online a day or two after the original airing of a show that no show really commands a ton of viewers anymore. Apparently the cast salaries and the cost to produce the show are becoming too much for ABC...LIES! I have no clue what show will replace it, though I have a clue they will replace it with a show that they think is cool but it will fail, maybe they will move private practice or Grey's Anatomy to Sunday, though I doubt it. I am not liking this choose at all. After the season wraps up all we can hope for is maybe another season or maybe a really really good movie, but just one not a crappy second movie like Sex and the City. ABC is getting 2 Digits Down from me.
