It could have been great.

Starts out slow. But with time, grabs your attention. Interesting concept. The show centers around a human sexuality class. Seems taboo on a station as teen friendly as the WB. And I suppose it was too adult considering they had to edit a lot of the material. A couple of the characters had the potential to be great: Richard and Natalie. I'm baffled as to why this quality show was cancelled, and shows like 7th Heaven and Smallville are being kept around. It's a shame it ended before it's time. It could have been great had they given it the opportunity.moreless

Why did they cancel this show?

By EvilSmirk_, May 21, 2007

Why did they cancel this show? Really, why did they cancel

this show?

I thought they some great material here. To bad they didn't get more time for this show!

The storyline was really good.. Everything in the show seemed 'honest'. Also loved Milo Ventimiglia in this show!

He is soo cute.

After the first episode I was hooked to the show,

the show really amazed me, and I was really sad when I first heared that the show was

canceled. I really hope that some day, they will continue this show.

But for now, we just have to wait for that moment,

SADLY enough! But when it comes..moreless

I knew that show was not gonna to be on the cw, because the cw has no interesting to renewed this season thus far and I have come to respect it.

I'm very happy to know that series has come to end that well, not terribly badly!

I hope that we can get to see the dvd of this show, so I can reenjoyed this show once more.

great show.

I think that The Bedford Diaries is a really good show. Why did the wb cancelled it??? I think that Milo Ventimiglia is a really really good and handsome actor who has been desprecied I do not know why. In Gilmore Girls he was the best boyfriend of Rory and now he is the one saving her from a life without her dreams. He is the best. I think that the bedford diaries explores the sexuality in really good terms. each student has a different point of view and no one lets the others see what are they. I think you should see it.moreless

What a shame the WB didn't give "The Bedford Diaries" a better time slot. The program had great potential as a progressive, influential work of art.

With Milo Ventimiglia as a rich boy college newspaper editor, I looked forward for every episode. Ventimiglia was excellent. He absolutely scorched as the former womanizing, alcoholic. He gave up alcohol. He was trying to repair his relationship with women. (It would have been great if he had played gay - since he did it so well in "Boy's Life 2: Must Be the Music.") The show introduced a gay character in the newspaper just before the show was cancelled - pity.

If the romances in "The Bedford Diaries" hadn't been so ridiculously clichéd, the series might have had better luck.

Matthew Modine as a professor overseeing a sexuality class was really rich!moreless
