Prime Time TV Score Card: USA Today's Save Our Shows Poll 2005

Well the results are in and the show that the number one show that viewers want to see go on is FOX's Arrested Development. It gets a 66% Keep vote. One comments made by a viewer says the ratings AD gets is understimating the audience and says that FOX should not make another mistake based on ratings data like they did with Family Guy.

Guy as you might know has been revived by FOX and is the first time a network canned a show and was brought back to life on the SAME network. DVD sales were really a big help. A revived show in the past went to another network. Last time such an event happen was JAG which started on NBC and got canned after one season. However CBS gave the show eight more seasons.

Two other shows that viewers want to see renewed are CBS's Joan of Arcadia and NBC's The Office.

Now what are the top three shows that those in survey wanted to see go to the graveyard of TV? Well its FOX's Quintuplets and Life on a Stick (the later of which got only a handful of showings). Rounding our the top three is CBS's Yes Dear.

Allthough Will & Grace has been offically renewed the Keepers won just a tad over the Droppers. The score is 35% to 31%
