Why is it every show I get into ends up getting canceled? Or just as I finally find a show it seems to end for the season and of course only do the reruns in between?

I recently found out one of my favorite shows, "Summerland" won't be coming back in the following season like I thought. They left it open and all, I really wanted to see certain things happen with the characters. I fell in love with those people in that show, I cried with them and even laughed. I got mad at decisions they made and happy when I thought things were going the way I believed they should. In the end I was so hooked I couldn't believe it was the last one but I thought that's okay because I'll watch it when it comes back on.

I watched as Ava first became a mother of her sister's children after a horrible accident. Pulling the three kids out of their lives and into her life. They were country people and suddenly thrust into the beach life. I can't imagine the changes they would've really went through if it were true. I watched as she struggled to raise the three, one teen, preteen and a young one, I think he was 8 or 9. Most parents start from scratch but they are normally infants, not many start off with those ages and being a mom myself I knew she would have obstacles.

Ava was already living with three close friends, two men and a woman, they'd been together throughout many years and now they were adding three children into it all. Ava currently had what looked and seemed like the love of her life but they could never stay together and when they seemed to be connecting something else would happen. Finally he left the show and she started dating eventually, the youngest was torn when he had left as he finally had a dad (again) and now he too was leaving his life. Ava started dating someone else, which Derrick the youngest became really attached to. Just as she is finally going to marry the boyfriend the old ex pops back up, long story short the fiance ends up telling her he can't marry her. Such a happy and sad moment at the same time. Ava is just left standing there. I would really like to see the next few episodes and see what happens with the kids and if Ava will end up with her first boyfriend. Granted that's just the romantic in me but hey, can ya blame me?

Isn't it funny how shows do that? They get you so hooked and then they just end. Or you get so into them that when they finally do end you don't know what to do, it's like saying goodbye to an old friend.
