Post ABC's Reasons Why Not
ABC's Reasons Why Not: http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_ma ... 1|,00.html

I think their reasoning behind pulling "Emily" is complete and utter bullshit. They should come out and say "Emily sucks, we don't like it, and the ratings back that up completely." The fact that they have such high hopes for "The Bachelor" and even "Jake in Progress" (which did worse than Emily on the one outing) proves that they don't like the show at all. Mind you, I hated the episode I saw, but it pisses me off when a network can't be bothered to tell the truth. What they claim is true is not backed up at all by the evidence (that it did the best of the three shows, and probably had the best chance of survival with a well-known female lead).

And, they can keep dreaming if they think The Bachelor will build this season. The franchise is dead. It has been for a few seasons. They've got far bigger fish in the tank now (Lost; Desperate Housewives; Dancing with the Stars; Crumbs; Grey's Anatomy; Extreme Makeover: HE; Boston Legal; Commander-in-Chief) to worry about making room for a long-dead goldfish like The Bachelor.

A Long Shot for "Arrested": http://tv.zap2it.com/tveditorial/tve_ma ... 1|,00.html

ABC isn't too hopeful that they'll snag "Arrested Development", but the head guy is cocksure that he can make the show a success, which is also complete bullshit. If he could market the show into a success, he wouldn't be admitting defeat so soon. "Arrested"'s chances are getting slimmer, and seem to rely heavily on Mitch Hurwitz (in Showtime's case).

COPY AND PASTE LINKS INTO LINK SPACE. THEY DON'T WORK WHEN YOU CLICK.

I watched EMily for 5 minutes, it was horrible. I am surprised they didn't yank it in the middle of airing, it was that bad.
