It's that time of the year when the major television networks start thinning the herd in terms of their primetime line-ups.

Some shows continue to make the cut over and over again, while many others get canned after just one season.

Is Dollhouse going to be latest victim of Joss Whedon and Fox's love/hate relationship?

The Hollywood Reporter has released its list of series which are "on the bubble," meaning they haven't yet been renewed by their networks. Joss Whedon's new show about reprogrammable human doll, starring Eliza Dushku, one of our personal faves, is given a 50/50 chance of surviving.

Jason O’Mara fans, we have tragic news.

Life on Mars has been cancelled.

The curse of Gretchen Mol lives on.

The show, which also stars Harvey Keitel and Michael Imperioli, has only been on the air for five months, but ABC let the ax fall on Monday.

Why doesn't ABC give their shows a chance to build an audience?

Pushing Daisies, Dirty Sexy Money and now Life on Mars were all killed this year.

In the meantime, 90210 gets a second season and Wife Swap will be on the air until the year 2025.

Prison Break has received the death penalty.

Fox announced Tuesday that the show’s current fourth season will also be its last.

It makes sense. How many more prisons can they break from?

The final string of episodes (at least four, with a few more potentially in the works) kicks off on April 17th.

TV just got a hell of a lot crappier!

Pushing Daisies has been cancelled, according to the series’ executive producer Bryan Fuller.

He says “(ABC president) Steve McPherson called me, and said, ‘We gave it the best shot we could.’”

While Fuller isn’t too upset (but we are), he says the series may have a second life in a new form.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
