Anyone else watching this on FOX? I hear rumours it might be cancelled soon, which is unfortunate. There is a lot of action and it is just fun to watch. Mindless entertainment, which we all need from time to time.

Not to mention that this weeks 2 hour episode introduced me to two excellent songs I hadn't heard before. Had to use Shazam on the BB to get the names, but in the episodes were:

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Beat the Devil's Tattoo
The Boxer Rebellion - Semi Automatic

Two very cool songs.

This show is a blast! It is sad that crap like reality tv thrives when real fun and creativity like this show get threatened for termination. The acting is solid and the FXs are damn good. WATCH IT PEOPLE!

I work on this show and hope it continues on.

It is getting pretty decent ratings but unfortunately it is very stunt heavy and that drives the production costs up by quite a bit. Basically an expensive tv show to produce.

Outlook not so good guys. The fact that they are burning two episodes each weak does not bode well either:

In a measure of how far it had already fallen, Fox’s Human Target double episodes were up 21% (vs. 12/22/10), but still each only reached a 1.7 adults 18-49 rating. The show’s headed for the dumpster.

That sucks, I really like the show. Last season was a bit better though, I don't really like the new rich broad. The cute thief is alright though.

A agree with GTF on Guerrero

It would suck if this show got canceled, I enjoy this show a fair bit.

Not too big on the chick, but I agree... Ames is awesome, adds a permanent hot chick on the show.

One episode my friend stayed for because he saw sweaty tits in the preview... LOL

Here is some news from Wiki:

Human Target

The second season continued the drop in viewers and premiered to 6.59 million viewers.[38] Viewership increased at the end of the second season, when the show aired in special time slots. Notably, episode 12 which aired after American Idol, received 9.3 million viewers, a season-high, and the best ratings the series has had since the beginning of the first season.

Hopefully the time-slot move will help along with the exposure after *shudder* American Idol. They want this show to succeed it seems. Which is nice. Unfortunately, Fringe has been moved to Friday's and that sucks.

I watched about half way in Human Target before I got bored. It was pretty fun mindless entertainment but I felt it so repetitive that it got boring. It really wasn't going anywhere... so I just stopped watching. Don't mind watching it here and there if I see it on TV though.

They need to make the ongoing story with Chance and his past actually be ongoing.

This was used in the HBO Penguins/Capitals 24/7 series. Fantastic action song.
