The $treet

Now that Fox has cancelled The Street let me offer some regrets that the network did not attempt to change its time slot. Going up against a show like The West Wing almost doomed it to failure and that is a shame.

The Street was a microcosm of a youthful Wall St. firm at mach speed. As has been popularized today the dialogue happened fast and furious...way faster than in real life. But that is what kept it vibrant. I am at least a generation or two older than the people depicted in the show yet I really related to the energy the show produced. The give and take between characters was very good on both the personal side as well as the professional side. The depictment of this Wall St. firm as both cut throat with good friendships is what life is...especially in the frenetic pace of the business of finance.

I really liked that in character development no one person was all good or all bad. Each inter-twined along the delicate fence of ideals and truth. I really hope that Darren Star Productions finds a new home for this show. I am anxious to continue watching the evolution of the characters and stories.

From watching the new shows this season, it makes me think how many great shows premiered last year, but when off the air. This is one of them. I guess it was a little too racy for network television. If it had been on HBO, it would have probably lasted a long time. The show was smart, funny, well acted, and best of all, it was original. Almost all shows today are just rip-offs of some other shows. This wasn't and that is why I loved it so much.

Hi. I just want to cry out and say that FOX is an idiots network to cancel The $treet. I have watch some episodes here in Sweden and I really think that this show is one of the best I've seen. It's definitely the best if you ignore the shows on HBO. I can't decide if I'm sad or angry that there will be no more episodes at all. It's really a shame.

I would like to know what's in those execs minds when they do things like this. How does there brains work. I would say that there heads doesn't work at all.

It's an absolute shame that this show was cancelled. I was lucky enough to find it on YouTube and I thought "sure, I'll try it"...I ended up bingeing all 11 episodes in 24 hours-it was that good!

This show did a good job of following the work lives and personal lives of each character. Showing the difficulties of dating in the workplace while also showing the connection people can have from working in the same area-understanding the needs and commitments of a job. It also did well explaining how the stock market works-I myself have absolutely zero understanding of it, but I was still able to follow along well and figure out what was going on with each situation. They also didn't try and stick on one topic too long like most dramas do. Each situation occurred for an appropriate amount of time; nothing dragged on longer than it should. The episodes each ended well but still had you wanting to know what would happen next.

They also did well with special guest stars and the actors on the show: Jennifer Connelly, Christian Campbell, Jennie Garth, Bradley Cooper, Isabel Gillies, Molly Ringwald, David Thornton...the list goes on! This show was cut too soon. It really could have been something worth watching. I'm glad I was able to find it on YouTube and see this show! Watch it. Even though there's only 11 viewable episodes, it's worth the watch.

This show was pretty good and its too bad that FOX didn't give it a chance. I don't think it was on 2 months before they axed it. They should have changed its time slot because it was up against The West Wing. It was FOX's loss because this could have been the next big thing.
