Dude, from what I understand, you live in America? So how did you see this?...
Killing off the Bond franchise? Dude, did you see OHMSS, Never Say Never Again, A View to a Kill, A License to Kill, or Die Another Day? My goodness, if the franchise can survive those films, nothing will ever kill off the Bond franchise. Though as much as I don't feel Craig really works that great as Bond, Casino Royale breathed new life into the franchise and brought it back closer to its source material. Since I don't live in the UK, I have not seen this yet and can't give my judgment of whether or not it continues that trend.
