    I still don't believe that this show is over. It clearly was left undone. Totally worth enjoying the two seasons it contains. Too much to learn about how power blinds our leaders, how corruption works like a perfect self-enhanced machine, how things are not what they seem and how all citizens (regardless the country they live in) are deceived and manipulated. The message is cruel and devastating to those naive who still believe in what their politicians tell them and how government works. Corruption is something nobody wants to talk about but affects us in every aspect of our lives. Somebody is taking decisions for you, and not always the right ones. My only guess on why this show didn't pick up is because is painful and hard to see us in the mirror.

    Kelsey and the gang - absolutely incredible. The writing and the look, chilled me. Every moment and twist was electric. Not a bad moment. Superb. Power and the people that hold power - ruthless, cunning, vicious, frightened, gentle, brutal.... Top Top Show!!! Perfect! The actors that played Boss's wife and daughter, complex, damaged - so realistic. The daughters lover, again - all the innocence and brutality of someone that loves and needs to survive in a cold world. Boss's team, the vamp in cropped blond hair - she seemed a stereotype, but she cracked that mold, intensity and charisma, pain and sensitivity. If I met those characters in real life, I would dislike them, but the writing and acting made me care and question myself, in regards my ambitions and who I consider worthy of being liked/loved.

    10 minutes into the first episode of the 2nd season (the first time I ever saw Boss) I was completely hooked.1. The story/plot is powerful and interesting. While it is delightfully twisting, intricate, shocking, and complicated, I was able to "jump aboard" without seeing the first season. (Damn! I sure wish I had seen season one...)2. Kelsey Grammar just blows me away. His portrayal of Kane is just fantastic. Wow. He must be seen.Having said all this, I just read that it's been cancelled, and the last episode I just watched is the last one. Period. What the hell?!! It never fails. As soon as some quality television comes along, I get sucked in, then it gets cancelled due to poor ratings. It never fails. And it never fails to tick me off. Just take a look at all of the other user ratings for this show... I'm not the only one who is captivated by the excellence of the writing, acting, and production of "Boss". What gives? What the heck is wrong with the t.v. viewing public/audience?!! I suppose the cancellation of great shows like "Boss" makes room on the schedule for what the viewers all really want and need: More Honey Boo-Boo spin-offs. More Kardashians. More "Housewives of XXX". Perhaps some more hoarders, ghost hunters, rose bearing bachelors, or dancing c-list "celebrities", Great. The viewing public is getting just what it apparently wants, and just what it deserves. God forbid some quality drama sneaks in there somewhere.

    Is it possible that there is cross reference to Obama's political upcoming? The ward bosses of the ghetto, the lateral interaction towards city hall. Is this how Obama came up? Is there an actual ward in Chicago that existed? Does anyone know his political rise in detail and can cross reference? Is Kane only a symbolic figure of American corruption? Any one care to comment? The direct Chicago reference and that GVS is producing it makes me wonder if this is all Just a metaphor for something a little bigger. A more than meets the eye subplot. Lets discuss via a different angle. Looking forward. Ps I loved both seasons and hope there will be a third.
