bummer... Terminator : Sarah Connor Chronicles axed

[glo]

One of my favorite shows and I know a ton of people that watch it. On the other hand I don't know of anyone that has ever had anything good to say about dollhouse. Also, canceling Firefly was a stupid move. It had it's cult following to pay the bills and by now would have a huge mainstream following that would have made the network piles of money.

sigh...they ALWAYS cancel the shows I like. :S

And I agree 100% about Dollhouse.. I've tried to watch it several times, but just can't get into it.

Dollhouse is best watched with the volume turned down.
I am considering editing all my recorded episodes down to just the Eliza Dushku scenes. :love:

Never could get into the Sarah Connor Chronicles or whatever it's called. A couple of people watch it at work, but like Lost and Heroes, it just doesn't appeal to me.

Zerocool2024 - I think on that show Chuck, the male agent (not Chuck) but the other guy who's always with the blond chick, isn't he from Firefly? The guy from Full Metal Jacket. But you're right, none of them have done much outside of Firefly.

I love supernatural! Fringe better never get canceled! best show ever!

I figured they would have waited till after the movie to renew/cancel the Terminator. If the movie did really well, I would have kept it and road out another season on its coat tails. If it bombed, then I would have let it go.

The final episode I thought was decent enough. It tied off enough loose ends, but left enough open to move it to another medium like books, games, fan fiction and stuff. I agree it would be a good show for syfy ,or however its spelled now, to pickup. I think it would go good with a friday paring of the new Stargate.

Right now my tv play list is:

Chuck
House
Smallville
Lie to Me
Legend of the Seeker
Heroes
24

It makes me so sad, I really, really liked The Sarah Conner Cronicles. I love Supernatural, didn't think I'd like it at first. But damn I hate when my list of shows to watch shrinks.

At least I've still got Numbers, Criminal Minds, Legend of The Seeker, Dexter, Sanctuary and all of West Wing to rewatch.

I can't forget chuck and heroes. I loved the heroes season finale even if the lead ups were a bit slow. Because of my work schedule I record everything and catch up on off days. I will save up a few weeks and watch them back to back to keep the flow going. I think I have about 6-8 unwatched 24 episodes, including tonights finale.

I am considering getting a portable media player so I can squeeze some shows down and watch them during down time at work.

oh yea, i forgot about the seeker (my tivo doesn't record it, i guess it's not in this area... so i'm left with, other means). it's definitely growing on me, and the filming quality is top notch. the actors are pretty good, i just wish zed would do more... so much for the almighty 'wizard of the 1st order'... blast people already.

i left smallville off my list as i don't feel it's in the same league as supernatural and the rest (supernatural's season finale, kicked butt! but last years was soooo much better... and the season opener... holy crap!!). ever since they took out mr. kent, it hasn't been the same. (superman returns was also a disappointment)

anyone seen the new x-men origins? was it worth it? (rotten tomatoes has it 37% / 65% ) seemed like they didn't keep with the comics and played more towards the saturday morning cartoon mythos (but i got from the previews).

the new star trek? definitely worth it. (rotten tomatoes has it 95% / 88% )

@starbuck
yea.. i was thinking the same. business-wise it just didn't make sense. if the movie does well, (25% on the tomato meter but 60% from the RT community), then you could get better ad sales, promos, and toys linked with the series. i guess they got some advanced intel and didn't like what they saw.
