10 New Shows That Already Deserve To Get Cancelled

5. 911

The rather unimaginatively named 911 is a procedural drama that focuses on the experiences of 911 operators while on the job. It sort of feels a little bit like all of the various "Chicago _______" shows that are on the air, except maybe a little less good.

Probably the best thing it has going for it is that it is being executive produced by Ryan Murphy, who brought us all of the American Horror Stories, so it's definitely being handled by people who have a little bit of cache with the studios.

That said, his reputation in the business didn't prevent Scream Queens from getting the axe, and it's fair to say that his attentions are spread pretty thin at the moment, while he continues work on American Horror Story as well as the FX series Feud.

And although he's normally known for developing creative, interesting shows, this one just feels pretty blah and definitely something that's been done a million times before.
