The upfront storm has hit, and has taken four early casualties down with it.
Unfortunately, it's time to say goodbye to Enlisted, a pretty great show that never got a fair shake! And also Dads (Seth Green, Giovanni Ribisi), Surviving Jack, and Rake after just one season each. While the Seth Macfarlane-produced Dads suffered from some horrible reviews and questionable jokes, the other three shows were fairly well-received. A few TV critics have regularly taken to Twitter to broadcast their undying love for Enlisted, which starred Geoff Stults, Parker Young, and Chris Lowell as brothers on a military base.
Surviving Jack starred Chris Meloni and Rachael Harris and was based on the book I Suck At Girls by Justin Halpern, who was also behind CBS' one-season wonder $#*! My Dad Says. Rake starred Greg Kinnear as a criminal defense lawyer, and was adapted from an Australian series of the same name.
#enlisted is trending right now. So if it's possible to put a show on twitter, maybe we can do that.
