Hollywood gossip columnist and sometime crazy person Nikke Finke has marked Trauma as next in line for cancellation, following on the axing of NBC's Southland, and citing the $3 million-per-episode price tag. As she writes, "When I screened the show, I was rooting for the helicopter to kill off every character..." Sorry guys, we may have to save our live-blogging for something else.

This photo comes to us via SF Citizen, along with the missive, "You know that Autumn has come to San Francisco when you see a crescent moon inside of the nine red stars that make up the Sutro Constellation." OK, laugh if you want, but despite the blog's linking to a post about the Sutro Tower, we still didn't get it and spent five minutes searching around to see if there was such a constellation, and wondering how you could get a photo of nine red stars without touching it up. But yes, folks, we have our blonde moments just like you...

San Francisco -- being like that pretty girl who sits by herself in the lunchroom and doesn't get a ton of attention outside her AP classes -- gets excited when she's given a chance to shine in the prime time limelight. But NBC's Trauma which premieres in two weeks and which we've all watched in the making here in SF all summer long, may not be long for this world. SF Citizen points us to this blurb by a NY Daily News critic who's had a sneak peak at the show and writes it off saying "we've all seen this before." There's also this poll on HubDub in which people have placed Trauma second only to Accidentally on Purpose as being one of the first new shows likely to get canceled this season. (SF Citizen also points to the irony of our city being one of the only ones without a hospital helipad or medical helicopter trauma unit largely due to the efforts of these rich NIMBYs.)
