Al and Miles? Gone? SERIOUSLY?

...damn, maybe the show will be able to grow then.

That's just weird, never thought they'd give it up. Maybe 'cause their precious Lana is leaving? *puzzles*

By the way, I just wanted to say thanks. I get all the necessary info about my shows from you. =D

Hehe, that was the reaction of some of the fans. One even mentioned "Saint Lana the Mindnumbing" which gave me the giggles, really XD The open letter that the execs sent to TVGuide can be found in the comments to the article...

And you're welcome :) It's fun and the LJ doesn't look so bare XD

Maybe Smallville gets to an end??

I think that the 8th season would have been the last one anyway. Though I would like to see a spin-off. Maybe Justice League?

No bad idea. But they should had end the show this season

Yay! I love when my shows do that good (and 12 mil. is good compared to what SPN usually gets). It was an awesome episode.

PCD ans Americas next top modle were baseball in Philidelphia (so I'm guessing the ratings will change)

Heh, now I will have to go and check the final ratings. You made me curious!

Fans are quite divided about Al and Miles. Some think it's a tragedy, the others hope that the show will finally get the chance to grow and leave the stale waters... We will see...

*pumps fist for CM*

yeah I am a little as well. (I was a bit disapointed because I write to reality tv - nothing better to write to - totaly mindless)

Well the last season of Gilmore Girls (after the creator left) was a tragedy - but... well I think Smallville should have been cancled a year or so ago...

Yeah it's an awesome show.

In the end, ANTM's ratings were 3.87 mil. Wow, that's a huge drop!

Philly loves baseball! Well I don't - but it's popular here.
