Netflix canceled American Vandal.
NBC drop kicked (canceled) Megyn Kelly Today.
Netflix has also, mysteriously, cancelled yet another Marvel series, Daredevil. I tell ya, despite the lip service about their carriage contracts with Disney, Disney (Marvel) shows are dropping like flies over there. My guess, considering Disney's track record with strong arming distributors, is that Netflix was 'convinced' to cancel the slate of Marvel shows. There's just oooone more to go... will they do it?

My New Rant About The Walking Dead
So here's another rant about AMC's The Walking Dead.... and if you are not caught up to the cliffhanging (sort of) mid-season break episode, there will be Walking Dead spoilers coming up.
So here we are, watching a show decline in the ratings ever since... shall we say when Glenn got his head bashed in by Neegan. Neegan brought a whole new world of pain to the series and though it was pretty refreshing, it got OLD real fast as it's all he kept doing. Neegan was a one-trick pony with his saunter and bat-bashing. But it was fun when it first started up.
Then last season was nothing but one bit long, drawn out battle with the Saviors and super close up face shots that bored the living shit out of me.
OK, so things started to stagnate... meaning it started to at least not keep sucking more and more, but then Rick left the story as did Maggie.
Now, despite the false advertising about Rick leaving the franchise, we will be seeing him in a few TV movies to show where he went to.
But with Maggie, we got nothing but a chunk of lip service on how she up and disappeared to a new colony where she's real happy. Nice going AMC.
So we've lost a lot of the folks that we, the viewers really enjoyed, and as I was accepting my losses, I was thinking, well, at least we still have Jesus, because I really like the character of Jesus.
And now... we have what seemed to be walkers that talked!
Holy shit! This is going to get quite interesting if walkers are evolving.
So the walker thing was quite the surprise, but unfortunately, that surprise came at a cost of yet one more character, the one that I chose to put on my character pedestal, and that was Jesus.
All I have now is Daryl and Carol, but are two characters enough to keep me interested. I'm starting to think no. As AMC gets quirky with how they're handling characters, I'm starting to get a little frustrated with the whole thing.
If enough of my faves go away, well, I'm not sure what I'll do.
Do you?
