I’m going to level with you, TV Fanatics.
The best part about writing about television is pouring my heart out about my favorite series and characters and all the creative, exciting, and entertaining things that happen with them.
But do you want to know what the worst part is?
It’s the cancellations of those shows, with the caveat that they sting more when the finales are upsetting.

Will 9-1-1: Lone Star Join a Series of Other Shows with Terrible Endings?
If you are familiar with my work over the years at TV Fanatic, you’d know that I’ve experienced this more than I would have ever imagined.
I cannot properly describe the animosity that still fuels me at the mention of New Amsterdam. How could a series I loved so much at the beginning become something I loathed by the end?
In short, a series of poorly executed storylines, cast moves, and other things.
And then there’s In the Dark, a riveting series with a fascinating concept that was the highlight of spring and summer programming. It utterly fell apart in its final season, resulting in one of the most horrific series finales I’ve ever experienced.
I fear 9-1-1: Lone Star is in a similar boat right now.
