If there would have been a 3rd season?


I know that the show was most likely cancelled due to the lower ratings of season 2 which seemed to have happened to a lot of freshman shows like Samantha Who, and the Sarah Connor Chronicles. If the show would have had a 3rd season, what storylines could have been told? I would imagine that the 3rd year would have focused on the wedding of Victory and Joe. Robert Buckley might have continued with the show and not have done One Tree Hill instead. I guess Wendy would have found success opening up her own film studio. Shane would have success with his music business. Wendy would have difficult with Shane's new attitude after coming back from his summer concert tour. Nico would consider adopting a child, but worries how being a mother would affect her relationship with Kirby who feels that he is not certain if he is ready to be a father.

I just finished rewatching the 2 seasons on Netflix, and here's what I think would have happened.

At the end of season 2:

Wendy was working from home on her own production company. She was working with a guy that she didn't like or trust much, but he had connections and a way of getting himself attached to Academy award winning projects. She had one project in production and was in a bidding war for another. She also had to deal with being a single parent while her husband was on tour.

Nico and Kirby seemed to be back on track. He still wasn't ready to have kids, and she was waiting for the right guy to fertilize her eggs. They were in completely different places in their lives, but they loved each other. Griffin had just ended things with Nico, but he was having second thoughts and trying to reach her.

Joe and Vic were planning their wedding and Joe was going through a financial crisis.

Season 3:

Wendy

The bidding war comes to a close since Wendy doesn't have the money to match Griffin. Wendy continues to deal with her teenage daughters shenanigans, and tries to parent both of her kids while her husband is away. She worries about her husband being around gorgeous women, and we see her dream up fantasies of her husband and other women. Shane returns early on in the season because he doesn't like being away from his family. Wendy continues to work on her other project and besides a few bumps in the road, it seems to be going well. The screenwriter gets a bigger role this season, and we would find out more about her. In the finale, Wendy would tell Shane she is pregnant.

Nico

The next morning after Kirby and Nico get back together, Nico checks her messages and finds out that Griffin wants to talk about their relationship. This season Nico would be in a love triangle with Kirby and Griffin. At first it seems like Kirby is the clear winner, however, Nico still wants a baby and Kirby isn't ready. She also has more in common with Griffin, and Griffin hasn't stopped fighting for Nico. At the end of the season, we find out that Nico is ready to fertilize her eggs but we don't know whose sperm she is using.

Vic

Her company is doing well, but Joe is not doing so good. News has travelled that Joe's company is going under, and his stock has plummeted. Joe is selling what he can of his things, while also planning the perfect wedding for Vic. He likes to pretend that nothing is wrong, but Vic and his assistant are not falling for it. Their love will be tested a few times in this hardship, since Joe wants to be able to take care of Vic and Vic just wants to be there for Joe. He will realize just how much she loves him and willing to stand by him through anything, and the two get married in the finale.

Dahlia (sp?) is also present this season, and she and Sal elope which almost upstages Vic and Joe's rehearsal dinner.

Vic's assistant also gets more screen time and a storyline of his own.

Super cool party people bid you a super cool adieu!
