i thought it was already cancelled and they're giving us the last episodes because of compassion or
something.. i've already come to terms with this ending. sucks, though. same as with flash forward - i
liked it a lot, but apparently ratings-hungry folk don't think they get enough money out of this 🙂
why do the networks do this?! they have a show, that does great in their ever so important "ratings"
system, which they then decide in their infinite wisdom, that it would be great to stick it on hiatus for 3-6
months... of course they won't get everyone back when it returns to tv land...
i need to apologize, i firmly believe that this is largely my fault. you see, i really like the show, and
unfortunately, the trend seems to be that if i enjoy a show, they sabotage it...
no one comes back to watch a good show cause they are always canceling
the good ones.whats the point.
actually thats a very good point. many people find it very hard to invest in a new show, as they have seen
so many fall at the first hurdle recently.
knowing that theres a large possibility that a show will get canned if its ratings are just ok its not worth
iwatching it until you know it has at least a second season greenlit.
this is all the networks faults, not just the one in question here.
shows like this with a complex story arc suffer hugely if there are too many breaks. imagine if 24 had a 12
week break in it! even that would have probably failed to get past its first season now..
how to kill a good tv show.....put it on a long hiatus.
these tv execs really are a bunch of dumb fuckers. when are they going to get it through their overpaid
thick skulls that people aren't going to come back to a show when you have gaps that long.
this sci-fi butchering has to end ! 4400, threshold,firefly,caprica, flashward, outcasts,stargate ffs and
now
event ! what kind of heartless monster does this ?!
i love sci-fi genre, but likely now it is the end of his era.
just by putting one or two stupid handsome look vampire, and 1 or 2 stupid prettylook b*tch
teenagegirl, it will increase the rating dramatically... (i think).
