My husband is going to be super bummed.

At least I still have John Hamm and Mad Men.

I prepared myself for this so it doesn't hurt as much. I also know that AMC will keep coming up with some great shows. New one next year called "The Killing."

a bit bummed, I really wanted to like the show and I really like all the actors, but I did have a really hard time keeping track of the storyline.

ETA: I am loving the Walking Dead though!!!!

I never watched Rubicon, but I love the Walking Dead. The Killing looks like a good one coming out next year.

I couldn't get into the show, from the start. I'm not surprised it was canceled.

I am really bummed. It took a bit to get involved in but the show had some of the best acting on TV. There are also not many shows that take a critical viewpoint of the government and intelligence gathering.

I am a big fan of BBC's MI-5. In America, we could never tolerate a show that is so critical of the government, politicians and bureaucrats. I was hoping that Rubicon would evolve into a show that would explore the problems inherent in keeping secrets in a "free" society.

And I think that is what hurt the show the most.
