Absolutely my feeling too. I posted on another forum asking about certain shows, if anyone knew if they had been cancelled, as I didn't want to start watching something, get really into it to have the rug, as it were, pulled from under my feet. I'd rather know, and not waste the time investing in the show if there's no payoff. Because of the information I received back, I was able to stop watching "Persons Unknown" as I had been told it ended really badly and would not be renewed. Pity, as I was enjoying it, but better to take the pain now than later.

Strangely, someone thought I was weird for thinking this way?
