I just remember that show was on the verge of being canceled and was about to be canceled and they were given like a 10 episode final season and each episode was heavy and great.
Nah...final season felt like it happen in an alternate continuity. The Observer suddenly turned evil was such an odd route to take the story.

Any news on Riggs being written off?
If they were smart it would go something like this:

Cold open on hospital room. Doctor is talking with a visibly agitated Murtaugh. A heavily bandaged body lies motionless on a hospital bed.

Doctor: As you know, the explosion did extensive damage to your partner. Between the initial blast, the super heated air, and concussion, well, frankly he's lucky to be alive.

Murtaugh: Just cut to it, doc. What are you trying to say?

Doctor: What I'm saying is that there's a good chance he won't look, sound, or even act like the partner you know but I want to stress that this is Martin Riggs.

Murtaugh: Okay, let's do this.

Doctor removes the bandages to reveal Seann William Scott.

Riggs: Hey, partner, how do I look?

Murtaugh: I'm getting too old for this shit.

LETHAL WEAPON

And then NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN.

Sean William Scott is an unexpected casting decision, the show must be popular elsewhere because I imagine it wasn't cheap for FOX to sign him.

Why would a show that didn't even deserve a second season have the audacity to end on a cliffhanger? Whether it's canceled or not that's the writers being complete assholes.

I was going to say the same thing. The show was cancelled once before and was saved in a bizarre turn of events, and then they come back with even worse ratings and have the gall to end the season on a cliffhanger? Way to shit all over your fans.

Friday Night Death Slots?
Thats probably where Gotham goes but they'd work well together imo otherwise.

I do find it funny that it really is a death slot but Hawaii Five-0 does really well on Friday night and Shark Tank did far better on Friday than it does on Sunday.
Heck Five-0 was in danger till it hit the death slot and has coasted 6 more seasons.
Guess they just hit a spot.

Season 4 was pretty good. Swapping Marissa for Taylor was one of the best decisions that show ever made.

The show was basically more comedy at that point...which honestly wasn't the worst since Marisa was a star ....that implodes on itself pretty quick

....even early on, that arc with this dipshit was amazingly bad xD

Oh and Johnny who slipped and fell.

God the show plays better without her. :S

Yeeeah... I rewatched the first season earlier this year and the Oliver arc still infuriates me. It's a black eye on an otherwise amazing season.

I honestly just think the writers had no idea what to do with Marissa. She's the only character that really has no growth whatsoever.

What kind of ratings do they think they'll get with Last Man Standing on Friday? They could have thrown anything in there.

I'm down for more Prison Break, I thought the latest season was an 'improvement' (in that even at it's best it's still just pulpy trash), but I'm really not sure where they'd put it. With Dominic Purcell's commitments unless they shoot ASAP it'll get pushed to the 2019-2020 season.

Jeez....enough with Prison Break already. That new one they did was super dumb.
And when they ran out of budget halfway through the season, the show became even more dumb.

This is the wisest choice for X-Files. And they shouldn't do anything with it again, unless Anderson changes her mind (which I don't think she will).

Now that Sutherland is free from Designated Survivor, I hope that means with them talking about 24 that they are in talks with him again. Don't bring it back again without him. That wasn't a way to leave off Jack Bauer.
