NCIS: Los Angeles - A Case of Cancellation
So, NCIS: Los Angeles is no more. Cue dramatic music. A piece of our television-watching souls has been ripped away, leaving a gaping hole filled with the echo of "Callen, we need to talk." But fear not, dear reader, for I am here to shed some light on this tragic event.
The Case of the Missing Ratings
Let's be honest, the golden age of television is upon us. There's a new show every Tuesday that promises to be the next big thing. With a plethora of options, it's easy for viewers to get distracted. NCIS: LA had a good run, but perhaps the competition caught up. It's like trying to impress your ex with a new haircut while they're dating a supermodel. Tough odds.
The Cost of Living in LA
We all know LA is expensive. Avocado toast alone could fund a small country. Imagine the budget for a show that involves car chases, explosions, and probably a few hundred wardrobe changes for Hetty. It's like trying to buy a house in Malibu on a teacher's salary. Simply not feasible.
The Network's Master Plan (Or Lack Thereof)
CBS has a whole NCIS universe going on. There's the original, NCIS: New Orleans (RIP), and now NCIS: Hawai'i. It's like having three kids and favoring the youngest. Maybe they decided to focus their resources on the new kid on the block and let NCIS: LA fly solo.
The Unanswered Questions
Okay, so we know NCIS: LA is over, but we're still left with a million questions. Like, who will fill the void left by Deeks' dad jokes? Will Callen ever find love? And most importantly, what will happen to Hetty's fabulous wardrobe?
How to Cope with the Loss of NCIS: LA
- How to find a new show to binge-watch: Explore other crime dramas, or maybe try something completely different.
- How to fill the Callen-shaped hole in your heart: Find a new fictional character to obsess over.
- How to survive without Hetty's wisdom: Learn to trust your own instincts (or at least pretend to).
- How to explain to your friends that you're no longer available on Sunday nights: Use vague excuses like "I'm busy" or "I have a headache."
- How to accept that life goes on: Embrace the change and find new things to enjoy.
Remember, every ending is a new beginning. So, let's raise a glass (or a coffee mug) to NCIS: Los Angeles for the memories and look forward to what the television world has in store for us next.
