ABC Family: Reco Williams I can't beleive they cancelled Roommates

I can't beleive they cancelled Roommates

I'm 30 and my wife is 28. ABC Family is trying to reach our age group, but the one show they had that I wanted to watch they up and cancelled after 6 eoisodes. Everyone I know that's a 30 something or almost a 30 something watched that show even though they were crazy in putting on the same night as Heroes and Dancing with the stars. I had to TIVO every week and watch it after heroes.

They should keep this show and move it to a differnt night instead of just giving up on it. This show could have been huge. What do you thinK?

I tivoed all the episodes because i loved it i hate that they canceled this show it was one of my favorites. I'm in high school but i love to watch shows like this. i like it alot because it's somewhat like friends. i was getting really into it i dont know why people are throwing such a big fit about it not being "family" oriented but if they have such a problem with it can't you block it or whatever some people want to watch these kind of shows. but what ever i find it rediculous
Sorry if my spelling is a little off but oh well haha. No comment

I understand trying to reach certain age groups. It's great. It's nice my husband and I have things to watch, but why with such an awful show? It's been done before. I'm ready for something original. Something different. Something new.

Roommates needs to be brought back. I've been waiting for a new season and it's not coming back on, and I am very angry.

They didn't even tell us who Mark chose. They can't end a show in the middle of the plot. I am not going to watch ABC Family if they don't put Roommates back on.

I used to watch this show online and am very disappointed it was cancelled. I'm so sick of show's being cancelled after I started watching them that I cancelled cable. It was the only way to fight back. I started watching Secret Life because I work with teens and thought I would give Roommates a chance after seeing it promoted online. I won't be trying any other shows. Just because it doesn't reach the millions of viewers they cancel it?!!! Hello people are different they don't want to watch the same shows and if everyone's watching the one show that gets million of viewers then why try to come up with another show if the viewers know you'll probably just cancel it! I'm just reminded again as to why I cancelled cable.

This show is great! It's really funny and it's NOT reality TV...finally! I'm almost 30 and I love the show because I can relate to it. The best thing since FRIENDS!!!

ABCfam has a lot more dramas now and if it isn't that its recycled shows. They finally create a generally funny sitcom with relate able characters and then out of the blue cancel it in 13 episodes. The first mistake was airing at the same time as Heroes since it hits the same audience and its already well known and successful. I think they should work on some scripts and give this show a new time slot in the fall on like a Tuesday or Wednesday night.

Roommates is the first thing I've watched on the network since Whose Line.

I'm really disappointed with the network, because Roommates dispite what other persons with no good judgement says, it was a great show, funny, different from what's going on, on TV at this point of the decade, and this show was for me hope, 'cause I'm 24 years old,a nd I almost can't relate to any show on TV, if it's not for teens, are for college people or single people in their 30's or more. Friends was once the shoe for single people in their 20's, but back in the 90's, not even in their 2000's seasons, so Roomates was that show that this generation needed. Networks always cancels the wrong shows, and prefers hold the same thing over and over just for the stupid ratings; once again I return to have no good comedy to watch that relates to me, if not a dramatic pregnant teenager (The Secret Life of a Designated Pregnant American Teenage Girl), or the unatractive cast from Greek, that looks to me that they haven't realized that they're already in college. Please do something, you have the power, make a difference in the wasteland that TV founds itself this days, make us laugh, like decades before us, I want to laugh, I want to hear laughs, I want Roommates back!

I'm twenty seven and I LOVE this show! It's always the good shows that they cancel after only enough episodes to make you want more! Ugh......I think they should just move it to a different night. But KEEP it!
