Wow, okay. I lost my post. A post that took me a half hour to type up because, hey, the backspace button skips back randomly and I end up losing some words I don't intend on deleting. Bah humbug. At least it was about tv. Right on.

my thoughts on the tv show cancellations and renewals )

Claire Holt will be a main cast member on The Originals I'm afraid

And heh, ditto on Gossip Girl. I couldn't even being myself to watch the final season

Ahh, that's too bad. I really like Rebekkah with the non-originals. That said at least I'll still have her pretty face on my screen. :D

No, I couldn't either. I had to read about it.

TBS picked up Cougar Town, but USA is the leading contender to perhaps pick up Happy Endings.

I've not really liked Castle as much this season. I'm not really sure why.

I believe this is the final season of HIMYM, so all should be revealed within the next year, presumably.

MTE about The Mentalist. TBH, I really wish they'd wrapped up the Red John storyline years ago instead of doing that fake out. I'm just really not that invested in Red John and prefer the team stuff and the case stuff.

I'd be surprised if Happy Endings was picked up but at least there's discussion about a pick up being an option.

For me it was the lack of showing us the romance in Castle and Beckett's lives. The show keeps telling us that they're happy and in love but I've not really seen it this season, you know?

I believe this is the final season of HIMYM, so all should be revealed within the next year, presumably.
I don't want to fistpump over the impending end of a show, but it's about time!

I actually don't mind the Red John story line, part of what makes Jane so compelling to me is how broken he is. I'm not sure how I'd like him if he got the closure he's been seeking so early on.

That is true. I don't watch it, so I don't have a stake in it, but I like when things are picked up elsewhere because A) it's nice for the fans and B) it gives me hope that maybe one of my shows one day might be rescued ( ... )

I'm sad Happy Endings got cancelled. That show was fun but I won't lose sleep over it.

I'm not surprised Castle, HIMYM and Mentalist got renewed. Ratings are too good.

I really hope next season is Mentalist's last and we get closure for everything. They've been dragging Red John too long now. It's frustrating.

I didn't mind Castle this season. I think I liked it a lot more than last season.

I'm really sick of HIMYM in the sense that we still don't know who the mother is. They should have introduced her two seasons ago and shown Ted's relationship with her before they got married. It's really, really annoying now.

Happy Community got renewed. I agree that it wasn't that good this season but at the same time I hated season 3 so I'm not sure it has anything to do with Harmon. At least there's not more Chevy. I hated his character and he's a horrible human being.

Okay, Castle and HIMYM had pretty good ratings this season, but TM really fell hard this season. I'm not sure how much of that is due to the time slot and how much is due to the show itself.

Like I said above, I don't mind the RJ story line, I like Jane broken and I'm not sure how much I'd like him if he had the closure he's been desperately seeking. That said, if next season is its last I won't be heartbroken. I just need it to end properly.

I'm glad Chevy's gone, too. Oddly enough it was after all that mess that they made Pierce a bit more human, until they made him horrible again.
