Television’s Naughty & Nice List
December 23rd, 2007
With Christmas a mere two days away, this TV Addict can only imagine how busy Santa must be.
With that in mind, we thought we’d lend the Big Guy in Red a hand by posting our 2007 Nice & Naughty list: Television Edition. Think we left anyone off the list? Post away in the comments below.
Nice: Josh Schwartz for doing double duty this fall. Not only did he give TV Addicts a new show to obsess over with GOSSIP GIRL. He gave our good blogger friend GMMR a new TV boyfriend to stalk swoon over.
Naughty: Both the WGA and the AMPTP for not working out their differences and leaving a neatly wrapped labour agreement under our Christmas trees.
Really Naughty: The AMPTP — because let’s face it, this is all their fault.
Nice: ABC, for allowing LOSTerminds Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse to end LOST on their own terms.
Naughty: Not only did NBC put the brakes on JOURNEYMAN’S journey, their plan to supersize THE OFFICE throughout September robbed fans of our traditional very special OFFICE Christmas.
Nice: Wisteria Lane Realty. Marc Cherry finally ensured an interesting neighbor moved into the neighborhood.
Naughty: The HEROES writers for zapping Kristen Bell of three seasons of VERONICA MARS coolness with an actor’s kryptonite — lame dialogue.
Nice: By renewing the critically acclaimed yet ratings anemic DAMAGES, FX proves yet again why cable is king.
Naughty: HBO, for canceling DEADWOOD and making us suffer through ten episodes of JOHN FROM CINCINNATI Seriously, does anyone know what was going on with that show.
Nice: Showtime, for stepping up to the plate this year and taking the entertainment crown from HBO. With the likes of DEXTER, WEEDS, CALIFORNICATION, THE TUDORS, THE L WORD and BROTHERHOOD…. who needs HBO?
Naughty: Isaiah Washington. As if that needs explaining.
Nice: Ronald D. Moore, for ending BATTLESTAR GALACTICA’s season on a high note.
Naughty: The SCI FI Network, for making us wait almost a year to find out what happens next!

journeyman was not that great. I’m pretty sure almost every paid critic said it was a dreary boring version of Quantum Leap that wasn’t as cool. It is bothersome that you rave about this show like 9 episodes in when you know its gonna get cancelled, just so you can lament and moan and say it was another “Brilliant but Cancelled” series like Firefly and Wonderfalls, even though it is not even close to the calibur of those shows. Just please shut up.
