Today is the start of The Critic Association Winter Press Tour where the execs of the major networks and cable talk about their programming. The first network up is CBS and one of the questions asked was is Three Rivers cancelled? And although at first Nina Tassler denied she eventually gave in and said yes it is. Because I chose not to get here early enough here is what The Futon Critic said that she said, “You know what – yes,” Tassler admitted. “We’ve all known each other long enough to say when something’s on hiatus it’s code for something else. The reality is we were very proud of that show… eight lives were saved as a result of the organ donation that people became aware of because of that show. And every show takes its time in finding its legs – some shows take longer than others – but I think at the end of the day knowing that the fact that that show was on the air had that kind of impact is pretty extraordinary.” That is really f*cking amazing that the show was able to save 8 lives with the few amount of episodes. Imagine how many more lives they could’ve save if they would’ve stayed with Three Rivers over the needs to be retired Cold Case. Can some please get Kathryn Morris a hair transplant? I have tried to watch the show, but her hair distracts me.
Now back to Three Rivers, I will totally miss the show and I am thankful for the amount of episodes we did get…I just wish we got more!
BTW CBS also said Numb3rs could come back.
