Over the past few weeks I had really gotten into NBC's new detective drama,
Raines starring Jeff Goldbloom. I had been waiting for my DVR to record the season finale which never seemed to air, so I decided to look it up. Turns out NBC has already axed the show. I guess
The Biggest Loser and some
American Idol knockoff show are far better choices than a relatively intelligent, darkly funny, well-written show like
Raines. It's amazing how they couldn't even let the show run out its season; after all, they only had 7 episodes anyway.
Networks don't stand by their shows anymore. If TV had been run the way it is now years ago shows like
The Simpsons and
Seinfeld never would have made it either. What a shame, now there really isn't anything to watch on TV. Thanks NBC.
