Big Shots Gets Canceled

November 09, 2007

I'm sad to report that one of our favorite shows "Big Shots" just got canceled. Production is shutting down and the studio informed the cast and crew on Thursday they won't be coming back after the strike.

ABC has yet to make an official statements about the fate of "Big Shots" but it's safe to say Michael Vartan, Dylan McDermott, Christopher Titus, Joshua Malina and Nia Long are all out of job. Its a shame too cause it was such a great show.

Big Shot was a great show, it was the show that actually got me watching grey's anatomy. Everything else on tv sucks ...is there anyway another network could pick it up. Let me know.....anybody

Come on, I'm a guy and I thought this show was great. It made me laugh and even sometimes wish I was one of them for a moment! I too am sick of the reality shows, bring this one back!!!

This was one of my favorite shows ever!! I am so disappointed!!!!! Bring it back on Wed night with Private Practice. That would be perfect.

I am so disappointed in ABC. I loved that show. My husband and I enjoyed watching it together. I'm with the other gal who commented about her husband saying there are only "chick shows" nowadays. Come on ABC get your act together and fight for shows that are exciting & worth watching! Bring em back....please!!

Oh, Say it aint so. I have been watching my Guide for this show hoping it would come back. This was actually a good show. Who's in charge now adays,maybe someone that doesn't have a clue about what the public wants. Take some of these stupid, boring reality shows and stupid talk shows/gameshows off, Who wants to watch a gameshow in the evening. Get it together guys. Put me in Charge and I will make your station number one again. hehe

ABC what were you thinking? Oh, I know you didn't did you? Why would you take away the male counterpart to Desparate Housewives? You need to bring this show back quick, fast, and in a hurry! ABC needs to think about it's fanbase a little more carefully, this is why you loose more and more of us to the cable networks! I know, take off Supernanny or Wife Swap, we already know we have bratty little kids and couples that can't appreciate their mates and families. ABC bring Big Shots back!!!

So, if there's NO 'OFFICIAL' confirmation how can you be CERTAIN that it will not be back? Just because the set was dismantled and the cast let go, who's to say there's not a 'spin-off' in the works, or that it won't be 'picked up' in another manner? Can you check all the facts 'before' printing this kind of information?

.... Oh yeah! and I reeeeaaaalllly wanted to see what would happen with the dead guys CRAZY sister taking over Reveal!!!! :*(****

Big Shots was a great show and I'm saddened that it will not be back! :( They had so many avenues that this show could take, they just needed to give it a chance. I mean come on what heterosexual woman wouldn't want to see four gorgeous men on tv once a week? They're not thinking of what women want and the reason it might not have had that big of ratings is because woman were doing other things when it was on... change the on-air time and I'm sure the ratings would rocket!

What!??? ABC get your act together! That show was going somewhere, except for the fact that it kept getting pushed aside (BEFORE WRITERS STRIKE) so new shows could premiere, then it would come back on again. Im getting tired of falling for a show with a great plot line for it to only get kicked to the curb.

Ratings, ratings, ratings people, cmon get with it, thats what its all about.

I am sad to hear that. I really liked the show, and agree with previous coments. The cast was great. I really like Nia long and was happy to see her aside these leading men. It could have been good. If they rode it out a little bit longer.

I can't believe they're canceling the show. I loved the whole concept of the show and it was well written for each character. I can't believe I won't be able to watch this show anymore.

ABC should get its act together. Big Shots is a show with a good plot line and excellent cast. Its a perfect show for mano-mano and should not be replaced with another lame crime drama or irrational comedy.

That absolutely sucks! I thought this was a well put together cast, decent writing and had serious potential. Too bad it won't get a chance to show us what it can do. In a time where this show gets cancelled and some of these other ridiculous shows keep coming back, I hope someone like FX or something can take it over.
