Ed should definitely be brought back. It was only recently cancelled (though it's not official yet, even though the set has been dismantled and it's pieces auctioned off), but I and countless other fans sorely miss it's presence. It was a one-of-a-kind -- sweet and romantic, yet subversive, clever, and sharply funny. Each and every cast member brought something special to their roles, and I only wish that the writers had focused on them as much as they focused on Ed and Carol's romance. The show was so much fun -- every week I looked forward to Mike and Ed's $10 bets and the numerous pop culture reference, which were either ingeniously embedded in the dialogue, or were hilariously blatant. Even though Ed and Carol got married, this show definitely could've had a worthy fifth season. Now I can only look forward to syndication and DVDs. Bring Ed back! I wish I could.

Keen Eddie. Fox never gave it a chance; frequently preempting it for baseball (no surprise there). It's in reruns on Bravo now and works well! It's a smart, interesting twist to the standard police drama.

"Providence" - Not only a great show but the finest city in New England.

I'm so sad to see Angel go. There's a huge "Save Angel" movement going on; fans have rented a billboard truck to drive around and are staging rallies outside the Warner Brothers Studios. Although I think mostly they're succeeding in scaring Joss Whedon.

Wonderfalls makes me insanely happy, and to correct an earlier post, I have seen no indication that Fox will cancel it just yet, although I also have not heard that they've been picked up yet for next year. Those announcements are usually made in May but some are coming out now.

For Firefly fans: Universal is producing the movie, to be titled Serenity, in an apparent attempt to bring the series back. Shooting is scheduled to start this June. No definitive word on whether it will be in theatres or air only on TV. But there is hope!

Anyone who wants more info should check out imdb.com. It has everything you could ever want to know.
