season ending tv shows this week

well the strike was over a month and change ago and this week marks the end for many shows and what did it mean again? i mean ratings are still steady for shows that have a strong built in audience. other shows however are effected by the impact. the bottom line is that reality or voting shows are having there way against the regular shows. American Idol did big numbers as did Dancing with the Stars, then tonight Grey's Anatomy is due for a huge blow out until next season. but strange as it sounds I like the fact that the networks took time off because the writing on most of these shows is pretty wack to me on a whole. nowadays the end of a season just doesn't mean the same because of Tivo, replays of the shows, youtube and other things that have made a tv show only something that you can always go back to whenever. the cliffhangers are only for the Soap-operas these days and even them are on delayed tv so nothing is without seeing these days or so it seems.
