something tells me, this isn't the last we've heard from this show

OK, this a wager I will be happy to make.

Those HBO c**ksuckers killed Deadwood on a cost versus ratings basis, and that show was much, much better (and far more acclaimed) than Luck (which I liked but had no illusions about).

Luck is gone, and no other network is going to revive it. Who the hell would want that heat for those ratings?

I can't blame a network for canceling a show that isn't making it money, but I can blame them for using the death of a horse that wasn't even on set as the excuse. What are the odds it comes up during the Kentucky Derby broadcast? Le sigh.
