We already know that “My Generation” and “Lone Star” got the axe, but I predict that “Hawaii 5-0” and “Who Do You Think You Are Friday” (which I’ve never heard of) will soon follow.
I never saw “My Generation” but watched the premier of “Lone Star” and can tell why it was cancelled. You couldn’t sympathize with the main character. If you’re going to have a con-artist be your protagonist you’ve got to have a really really good reason why he’s doing what he does; the simple “that’s the way he was raised” answer isn’t enough.
