Which Newly Canceled Shows Are You Going to Miss the Most?

As we say goodbye to the 2013-2014 television season (and look ahead to the 2014-2015 season), there is the unfortunate fact that as per usual we had to say goodbye to a lot of shows. Some were planned (BREAKING BAD, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, etc.), and others…not so much.

Television is kind of a crazy medium to get invested in. For (most) books and movies, there’s a set beginning, middle, and end for each story, so even if only five people actually view it, the full story is still there. Not so much in TV. Even long-running shows can be canceled at the drop of a hat, and the number of series that get to end things wholly on their own terms still is minimal.

The Crazy Ones | 9 and 9:30pm on CBS

Brad Garrett returns as Gordon Lewis, Gayle King guest stars as herself and Melody Thomas Scott guest stars as Flora, the librarian.

THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL is Coming to CBS

We may have a few months before CBS’ fall 2014 lineup gets solidified, but one big piece of the puzzle has been placed: CBS has won the rights to air NFL’s Thursday Night Football — which consists of eight early season games — the network announced today.

“We are very pleased to build on our outstanding partnership with the NFL by expanding our coverage to Thursday nights,” said CBS Corporation President and CEO Leslie Moonves in a statement. “CBS is a premium content company and the NFL represents the best premium content there is. I look forward to all this new deal will do for us not only on Thursday nights, but across our entire schedule.”

With CBS using eight Thursdays on the sporting event, no word yet on what impact that will have on its scripted shows currently there. (Perhaps a few will be shuffled, and a few others will be delayed?)

Do you think you’ll check out football on CBS?

THE CRAZY ONES: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Tracy Poust on the Difficulty of Filming ‘Simon Roberts Was Here’

Sarah Michelle Gellar has faced a lot of foes on-screen, but it turns out one thing can render her job a little more difficult: cats.

And, unfortunately for her, tonight’s episode of THE CRAZY ONE has Gellar’s character, Sydney, interacting heavily with a cat.

“They wrote an entire episode — and we hadn’t gotten to script yet — and the new director came down [to talk to us],” Gellar recalled during a recent TCA panel for the show. “It’s kind of awkward [at first], you know, because they’re coming into this family. And he says, ‘By the way, you’re not allergic to cats, are you?’ And I was, like, ‘Ha, ha, I’m deathly allergic to cats.’ And he looks at me, and he’s like, ‘No, really.’ And I’m, like, ‘No. You’re joking, right?”’ And he’s, like, ‘No, you’re joking.’ And then we realize that they’d all written this whole episode, and we’re all allergic to cats.”

THE CRAZY ONES: What You Need to Know About the New CBS Series

There are approximately one million new shows debuting this season*, and it’s going to get difficult to keep track of them all.

To help you out, for every new show, I’m going to basically create a hub of info on the day of the premiere — pilot photos, my quick take on the pilot (or what I’ve seen so far), what’s been written about it so far, and when you can watch it.

Next up, THE CRAZY ONES…
