For those of you who enjoyed this past season of Bored to Death, I hope it was good enough to hold you over until the end of time because THR reports HBO has opted not to renew the series for fourth season. The network has also decided to cut off Hung and How to Make it in America as new series like Luck, Girls, Angry Boys, Life's Too Short and Veep all make their way to the network next year. However, amidst all of the cable network's axing, there is a lone survivor. HBO's freshman series Enlightened starring Laura Dern has been renewed for a second season. While Dern gives a solid performance, it's not a show I looked forward to watching every week and I can't say I'm too thrilled with HBO's decision to renew it. Surely the Golden Globe nomination for Dern's performance and the series itself helped the half-hour show survive though. Anyway, the future slate for HBO is enough to let me forgive their reckless executions of the aforementioned series for now.
