I just remember Musical!Ted One of the better Ted moments in the series, that is, when he's not infuriating me.

Aw, I love Mosby.
That doesn't include s5, in which I find nearly everyone unrecognizable and slightly annoying. __________________

I saw this earlier and I don't like it one bit. Some of those quotes seem really ungrateful, but of course that just might be how I'm reading them and the sections the article chose to publish.
I don't see why the show should end just yet, if the ratings are still up there and the producers think there's more to do. Only 18 episodes sounds pretty scary, though. __________________

I think the 18 episodes thing has to do with the show becoming increasingly expensive (large cast, most of which are award winners, whose salaries probably increase as the show goes on). They're only doing okay in the ratings, the network probably doesn't want to spend a huge amount of cash at this point.
I understand why they might be exhausted (since they had 4 different showrunners, I'm sure there must have been some disagreements between them and the network; or even between the writers/producers) but Sally & Rachel do make it seem like they really want it to end. I don't like it when it seems like the actors don't even enjoy working on a show. Especially since there's so many struggling actors who would kill for their jobs. Especially Rachel who actually complains about being paid a high amount to just sit at family dinners. Sure, commuting from Australia must be hard but they do get quite a few months off between the seasons, which is a rare luxury. Unless you're a student/teacher, I don't think that are many steady jobs where they give you so much time off. __________________

I really hope that this doesn't mean that the show is ending
But if this is going to be the last year, I'd like it to be announced as early as possible to be able to mentally prepare for it |

I really don't want it to end but I'd rather that they go out when the show is doing well rather than it keeping going until bad ratings get it cancelled.
The networks seem to be ordering quite a few of the shows for only 18 episodes. I wonder if they are realising that quality is better than quantity. __________________

Same thing happened with Alias:S5 so I'm not beyond shocked as it's mostly the same crew. But I'd like them to announce it's the final season early - and write this season as the last, then just play around until the final 3. I don't mind a shortened episode order as the last 2 seasons had too much filler.

IA Ken, it'll be nice to have less filler. I hope that the reduced number doesn't automatically equal the end.

Rachel's and Sally's comments remind me a lot of Lauren and Alexis during the last season of GG. I hate the idea of actors not enjoying working on a show I love __________________

I hope this isnt the last season since the show still brings in over 9million viewers which is still good for an ABC show (where most of their shows garner that or below). Even DH and GA only get around 11-15mill viewers now. But if it is the last season, hopefully they know at the beginning so we can have a proper ending and atleast 5 good years.
And ya it sucks to sit around with nothing to do when you could be somewhere else but the main factor of this show is the family unit so i can also understand the writers trying to do as many family scenes as possible. But even if this isnt the shows last, i can tell that there are a lot of them that wouldnt renew their contracts if they had the option to. |

But with B&S, I don't feel like they're at that point yet. It's only been 4 seasons and the only dramatic change (IMO) happened between s1 and s2 when the style changed to more serious soapy drama. They've been pretty consistent since then. __________________

And because there haven't been any big changes in the show, at least that are revealed to us, this does feel like it's coming out of left field. Everyone always has seemed to happy and optimistic about the show. __________________

Maybe this is just their way of preparing themselves for a possible ending of the show
