USA Network Status Updates: Common Law, Necessary Roughness, Fairly Legal
From Burn Notice to Psych to White Collar, USA Network has an incredibly impressive resume of long-running hits.
According a recent Deadline report, however, a trio of recent offerings may not live to see another season.
COMMON LAW, for starters, has likely nabbed its final suspect. USA has let allowed the options on its stars’ contracts run out and showrunner Craig Sweeny is now an executive producer on CBS’ Elementary.
FAIRLY LEGAL, which barely received a second season renewal, is also unlikely to return next summer.
The odds for a third season of NECESSARY ROUGHNESS, meanwhile, stand at "50/50" according to a network insider.
If all get the axe, which of these programs will you miss the most?

I loved common law. So much better than some of the shows that haven't been cut, like suits, white collar, or covert affairs. I also liked the therapy session angle to their relationship. I so wish you would bring it back.

Please bring Fairly Legal back. I'd love to see Kate and Justin back together again; I don't think Ben has enough chemistry with Kate.
Necessary Roughness is great! I'd love it if Dani & Nico deepened their friendship/relationship.
Royal Pains and White Collar are also terrific...please do not cancel them.
Psych is just plain funny!
Everyone is my household loves all of the above shows...please keep them on!

Common Law had some weak points, but overall it was a great show. It was definitely better than Psych. CBS Television Studios and Junction Entertainment should hire better writers and bring Common Law back.

I love Fairly Legal, Suits, Necessary Roughness, White Collar, and Royal Pains. We also loved Common Law and hope they will bring it back.
TO NAYSAYERS: If you don't like it don't watch it! That's what we do.

Common law brought realism of law enforcement from a different perspective give it a second chance. It also shows that law enforcement is human just like everyone else.
