what is this show even without anansi?


killing off anansi for no damn good reason other than thinly veiled racism

his character told it like it is and he got fired for it

reply

Nah, that's just the actor calling it racism out of anger and hurt feelings, don't be so easily manipulated.

reply

yea right but marilyn manson of all ppl gonna be in s3 right?

theres no plot for anansi though even if not in this season for the rest of the show right?

i dont buy it

The show isn't about him and they've had massive turnover in casting so what is it you're angry about?

reply

the show doesnt have to be about him for him to be an integral part of the show

what has he ever said or done that would make you think its "anger or hurt feelings"?

if anything i think he made his statement before the producers could put the usual "spin" on it

the guy was a writer and producer in season 2

massive turnover in casting? i count three ppl not on the show anymore (the leprechaun, original media, and spring)

anansi didnt die but next season he'll just be inexplicably gone?

he was one of the most popular characters

and the excuse the producers gave doesnt cut it

they could have easily picked a plot that didnt include him to "justify" his firing, but what does that mean based against the rest of the show past this next season?

i hope his spinoff show still comes out
