Solution to disliking the direction a show takes: stop watching it. That doesn't mean it deserves to be cancelled, especially when it's a fact that it won't be lasting longer than the next season. Why cancel something that has a built-in end date? House - there's a show that's run its course, and I would not care one way or the other if it gets cancelled or not since, well, I stopped watching it. The difference is that House doesn't have a definitive end date - it can go on forever. Lost does - the next season will be its last.

When a show has turned to crap it's a waste of money and resources and acting and should be cut short, not allowed to continue on until its planned ending.
