So, I was correct in my thinking that you have better series. Here the TV powers that be seem to think they have to do a cliff hanger to make sure viewers come back. Alas: Game of Thrones is not the exception here but the rule. On the show I mentioned there have been at least 2 seasons with explosions on the last day of the season, at least 3 shootings of a main character and other disasters with the main characters in peril. |

I was interested in the remake of V. Alas, it was cancelled on a cliffhanger. There are more and more American/Canadian series that run for a single season and end their story: Harper's Island, American Horror Story, True Detective, American Crime Story, Slasher. I hope more follow the pattern. |

I gave up our local channels when it starting costing $10 a month. Now if I wanted I could still access ABC, FOX and CBS on the internet. NBC won't let you watch without a cable provider on the internet. I do get ABC on an antenna (cost $6.99). |

American Horror Story - FX True Detective - HBO American Crime Story - FX Slasher - Super Channel/Chiller Yeah, all but Harper's Island were cable series. There was another good one season series, Day Break, that aired on ABC. But it was a bit of a bomb. I think they only aired the first half. Good show though. |
