It’s hard to believe we had to bid farewell to the quirky charmer So Help Me Todd just a few weeks ago. Among all the 2024 canceled TV shows, the decision over this legal dramedy struck a chord with fans deeply. Even Marcia Gay Harden took to social media to share her own goodbye post for the short-lived but well-loved series.
The actress starred opposite Skylar Astin as a mother-son duo in So Help Me Todd. After the Season 2 finale wrapped, she thanked the fans on social media for their loyalty throughout the series. After regaining his P.I. license, Margaret (Marcia Gay Harden) will no doubt be perplexed to learn that her son has no intention of joining her corporate realm full-time
Interestingly, while Harden kept an upbeat attitude about the changes coming to her schedule, fans were clearly upset about the cancellation. Social media was filled with comments such as:
kelliewilde: So upset!! This show was one of my favorite parts of the week!!! I hope another network picks it up or something!! HOW could a show this GOOD get cancelled?! It makes no sense!!!
Nank 38: Why bring back Matlock when you have Margaret? I enjoyed every moment! ❤️
Even fellow actress Camryn Manheim commented on the post, praising her colleague, I loved your show. But damn girl…you are a movie star.
CBS Faces Tough Decisions
The disappointment didn’t end there. CBS made it clear that difficult choices had to be made this TV season, leading to cancellations of not only CSI: Vegas but also fan-favorite NCIS: Hawai’i. Vanessa Lachey led this series alongside Alex Tarrant and Noah Mills yet couldn’t save it from the chopping block.
CEO George Cheeks remarked that canceling So Help Me Todd was particularly heartbreaking
, reflecting how beloved the show was within CBS itself.
An End for CSI Vegas
The final curtain came down on CSI: Vegas, a reboot that revisited iconic characters like Grissom and Willows. They returned to solve a catastrophic case in Las Vegas, bringing nostalgia to fans.
The season 16 finale mirrored what loyal viewers cherished about the original series: tight scriptwriting and dynamic character interactions.
Tough Goodbye for Legal Drama Comedies
