Rant 5: TV Shows

Television is really one of those things that I used to really be into but I've kind of fallen out of that these past years.  Even though this, I still have a couple of favorite shows, both of them that have been unfortunately been canceled, I will get into the summaries of them in a little.  Now on to the actual rant about cancellation of television shows.  As I mentioned above, my two favorite shows have been canceled and it is really unfortunate for that.  The shows are My Name is Earl, canceled after fourth season in 2009, and Raising Hope, again canceled after fourth season in April of this year.  My Name is Earl is about a former thief named Earl Hickey who, after getting hit by a car after wining the lottery ,even though it was a complete fluke this happened, "discovers" karma while laying in the hospital bed.  He then decides to make up for all the wrong deeds he has done in the past, which was in the six to seven hundreds by the end of the series.  I don't really see why this was canceled, even though there have been rumors about a movie that shows him finishing his list( everything he had done wrong) and what happens after he has it finished.  Raising Hope is about a twenty-ish year old guy named Jimmy Chance.  What happens is he has a one night stand with a serial killer named Lucy and then she has a child before being executed.  Jimmy takes her in, as she is his kid anyway, and changes her name to Hope.  Like My Name is Earl, I don't know why this was canceled but I like both of the shows.
