   Remember that little thing that JustTV did last summer called "The Weakest Link?" Of course it seemed like a good idea then, the primetime show was sizzling. But now its at the bottom of the ratings, and so was this idea. Nevertheless, I've decided to do one final update to see exactely how good you guys were at picking the winners.

The Weakest Links (as you picked them, in order of being voted off) 
  1. Emeril (NBC, Tuesday 8pm)                           CANCELLED
     According To Jim (ABC, Wednesday 8:30pm)            RENEWED
  3. Bob Patterson (ABC, Tuesday 9pm)                    CANCELLED
     Wolf Lake (CBS, Wednesday 10pm)                     Can/Ren
     Inside Schwartz (NBC, Thursday 8:30pm)              CANELLLED
  6. Danny (CBS, Friday 8:30pm)                          CANCELLED
  7. The Ellen Show (CBS, Friday 8pm)                    CANCELED
  8. The Bernie Mack Show (Fox, Wednesday 9:30pm)        RENEWED
  9. Thieves (ABC, Friday 9pm)                           CANCELLED
 10. Pasadena (Fox, Friday 9pm)                          CANCELLED
 11. One On One (UPN, Monday 8:30pm)                     RENEWED
 12. Reba (WB, Friday 9pm)                               RENEWED
     The Agency (CBS, Thursday 10pm)                     -----
 14. Men & Dogs (WB, Sunday 9:30pm)                      CANCELLED
 15. Raising Dad (WB, Friday 9:30pm)                     -----
 16. The Tick (Fox, Thursday 8:30pm)                     CANCELLED
 17. Crossing Jordan (NBC, Monday 10pm)                  RENEWED
     The Amazing Race (CBS, Wednesday 9pm)               RENEWED
     The Education of Max Bickford (CBS, Sunday 8pm)     -----
     UC: Undercover (NBC, Sunday 10pm)                   CANCELLED

So, of the 20 programs you picked as the weakest links, 11 have already been cancelled. "Wolf Lake" was cancelled, but also kinda renewed. The fate is out on three series, but it doesn't look good for any of them

The Biggest Goofs: According To Jim, The Bernie Mack Show, One On One, Reba, Crossing Jordan, The Amazing Race


The Stronger Links: 
  Philly (ABC, Tuesday 10pm)                             ------
  Undeclared (Fox, Tuesday 8:30pm)                       ------
  24 (Fox, Tuesday 9pm)                                  ------
  Enterprise (UPN, Wednesday 8pm)                        RENEWED
  Maybe Its Me (WB, Friday 8:30pm)                       ------
  Citizen Baines (CBS, Saturday 9pm)                     CANCELLED
  Alias (ABC, Sunday 9pm)                                RENEWED
  Law & Order: Criminal Intent (NBC, Sunday 10pm)        RENEWED

Not bad here, three of the 8 have already been renewed. One has been outright cancelled, two others will likely join "Baines" ("Maybe," "Undeclared"), while the other two will likely get a renewal

The Biggest Goof: Citizen Baines. Hey, the producers are the once who cancelled this series, making it one of the fall's first dropouts.



The Strongest Link: 
  Scrubs (NBC, Tuesday 9:30pm)                           RENEWED
 
We could sit all night and argue about what the season's biggest new hit is, but "Scrubs" is definitely among them. In fact, it was one of the first shows of the season to be granted a second year, along with "Crossing Jordan."
 

Coming Wednesday: The end of the world....
