NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AGGGHH! GOD! NO!!!! YOU CAN'T....


AGGGH! GOD!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!

YOU JUST CAN'T -LEAVE- IT LIKE THAT!!!

SHOOT ME NOW!!

(foams at mouth profusely)

Good GODS, Manny Coto! SCIFI CHANNEL! SHOWTIME!

SOMEONE!!!

YOU GOTTA CONTINUE THIS STORYLINE!

(TYPES A BUNCH MORE STUFF IN ALL CAPS TO GET HIS POINT AND FRUSTRATION ACROSS)

Why is it, every TIME I find what may be one of THE most well-done, well-scripted, WELL-ACTED, well-done-all-around Television shows that not only appeal to the intellectual in me, but also to the sentimentalist, and the jaded realist THAT THE BLOODY SHOW GETS CANCELED??!!!!! (The immediate example that leaps to mind is "Carnivale" over on HBO... But I can think of many others.)

Good GODS, tho, STUDIO EXECS! BRING THIS SERIES BACK!!!!

Get some SCABS to write it if necessary!!!! :(((

(adds more caps and more exclamation points to drive points home as necessary)

I know what you mean. Being hooked by a good tv show that later i get to know that was cancelled.

I feel your pain! I bought it on dvd and just finished watching it going what?
This is the end? Am I missing a disc? Very frustrating! You become very attached to the characters and want to see what happens!!!!

reply

hahaha..you sound like me back in 2003, boy was I P.O.'ed .....and still am...:):). yeah talk about a load of BULL. Great story/Great actors and very good ratings.....and they cancel it......some one definitly needed to be shot for this decision.

Like Firefly and Jericho. RIP Odyssey 5.

I'm from germany an i was about to watch the show at their tv-premiere. Sadly, they aired it in the afternoon at saturday... It was just a bad time and so i forgot it over and over again to watch...

Now, that the show is also released on DVD and the time is better "placeable" i watched it from the begin to the end - and now i'm bummed as you guys are... The show was "good", but (or "and") got some really great episodes (my favorite is KITTEN).

Is there any sign, maybe even from Coto, who explains how the show was about to grow and end?

reply

Yes, my friend. It sucks badly. When shows like this are left virtually ignored in favor of the other drek that's so popular today, I truly fear for the future.

Most skeptics are terrified it's all real and are desperate to prove otherwise.

reply

EXACTLY!

There is FAR too much drek on TV now! RealityTV has become nauseatingly prevalent and it seems that a LOT of the well-scripted, SERIALIZED (Ie - A show you must watch every week to follow fully) show is being canceled one after another! :(

The Scifi genre, in general, is feeling the heat nowadays! :( (Which sux because it's practically my favorite genre IN GENERAL!)
