This first one is about how the NHL would love to have the Rangers fighting for the Stanley Cup. One thing that I've noticed over the years is that no matter how bad the Rangers are every season, everyone plays them well and hopes to beat them. And in a sport that doesn't get much respect or attention, they're probably the most high-profile team in the league. This guy makes a lot of good points, and it's very much worth reading.
This other article, comes from msnbc.com as well. Every week they have some sort of top 5 article about television shows. This weeks was the top 5 shows that should be cancelled and 24 was included. It's my belief that 24 will not be cancelled, the writers will be the ones who decide when to end it, but the guy has some good points.
Coming off its best season ever, “24” has had its worst season ever. The show has recycled plot lines, and has most recently shifted 180 degrees, dropping one plot and picking up another, which is almost as implausible as all that’s come before it. Worse, Jack Bauer has been more absent than usual this year — and there’s not much left to do to him. Unless the writers can give the series a major reboot, focusing on something other than an impending terrorist attack in Los Angeles, it’s time to pull the batteries out of “24’s” clock.
I think this season or the next should probably be the last anyway. There really is only so much that can happen on the show, and there have been a lot of recycled plots, this season especially. Some shows are too good to stay on TV a long time because they can't sustain their past success. The only reason I wouldn't want this season to be the last is the hopes that the 7th season would be better and they can go out on top. I think there's definately going to be a 7th season anyway, but I'm nervous it'll be worse than this one. So I guess I'm a little torn.
