Where are the Day Break ...

Question: Where are the Day Break episodes on ABC.com? I was a loyal fan of the show and I was looking forward to finding out about Detective Hopper's day. I can't believe that they canceled such a great show.
Answer: Oh, I believe it. But you're not the only one to wonder why ABC.com hasn't put on any completed, unseen episodes. Maybe the holidays are to blame, except that if Day Break had been a hit, the network would have been running original episodes all through the holiday weeks. I've put this question out to ABC, and if I get an answer, I'll share it. But while I empathize with those who want to follow a show like this to its premature end, I'm beginning to rethink the wisdom of the networks continuing these defunct shows online. I get an awful lot of unhappy mail from those who aren't pleased with their online viewing experiences, what with technical glitches and a lingering sense that even when they watch the remaining episodes, there's still not always a true feeling of closure. The grim fact is that these are canceled shows we're talking about, and extending their life only online feeds a sense of denial among those who'd rather not face the fact their new favorite show isn't going to be around any longer. My suggestion: move on.
