In case you missed it, these shows were torpedoed by networks.
Some of these axings were buried in the copy so here they are again.

Rosehaven is a must. I am surprised to see it on this list, as I see it as a flagship program of the comedy channel.
Surprised The Wall got the chop.
I thought it was doing ok in terms of ratings.
Perhaps Seven saw potential costs heading into the millions and were disappointed less than 1 million viewers were watching each episode.
Happy to see the back of Newton’s Law. Had high hopes for Pulse but unfortunately I think it can go, too. Would love renewals for Rosehaven and Sisters.
Really hope Glitch and Rosehaven come back, they are both shows I’ve been excited each time a new season has started.
Bugger. I didn’t know newtons law wasn’t coming back. Thought it could have a second season. I’m still mad about the time of our lives. Hoping for more Janet King, sisters and the wrong girl, quite liked cram in the end. And of course offspring.
Sorry to see Love Child axed. It still had some life left in it. Rosehaven deserves another season, as for the rest, time for commercial networks to come up with some fresh dramas. That doesn’t mean another incarnation of Underbelly or a biopic of an Australian celeb from the 70s/80s
It’s time for some fresh new ideas/shows. 90% of the shows listed above are dead and buried. I am all for new shows replacing them.
Rosehaven deserves one more season.
I think Michelle Guthrie just announced it today, checking.
I liked The Habibs….but then ..I am as old as dirt…and not politically correct… *G*
Cleverman could be rescued by Netflix, perhaps the producers should knock on their door.
Whilst it should end while it’s still got some positive reviews, Offspring I could see coming back. It’s just got such a loyal following.
Will miss House Husbands.
Also liked The Wall despite its problems. I knew it lost a lot of viewers between its premiere and final episode, but Seven usually won the nights it was on and it did fine in the demos. Maybe Seven is worried someone would win big?
