Terminator: Cancellation of Show Chronicles [nsf56k i guess]
Posts
no it wasnt, it was because its cheaper to make dollhouse then t:scc, that's the sole reason.
Edit: Yeah, that was following the move to Fridays. But, it and DH were pretty heavily advertised what with the whole Cameron and Dzysfitzlefish "hosting" the monumentous return from the mid-season break for terminator (and premier for DH). I was almost expecting the to make out.
But, why the fuck am I defending FOX?
This show got its initial interest from people watching Cameron break shit and from Derek and John blowing fuckers up. Cameron is virtually absent from Season 2, so is Derek, and John just mopes and groans about not wanting his destiny and how much of a bitch Riley was being.
I wish there was a season three to this show, but it got what it asked for with its poor planning and writing.
But then again, it's not too long since it was cancelled (it aired it's last episode this year, no?) so it's not implausible that it's picked up again.
They tore down the sets and stuff.
There was a panel with Thomas Dekker this weekend at FanExpo, the show is not coming back ever. He's telling people to give up on "save the show!" type campaigns because the show is done.
The dude who wrote the thing is trying to get a comic book deal to resolve the plot, since that's what canceled shows do now I guess?
While the Friday night slot was the final nail in the coffin, the show was on borrowed time ever since its weak ratings in the Monday slot when it came back for Season 2.
It's not Fox's fault. The show was unsuccesful, so it got canceled. Grow up.
As some people have stated here, they quit the show because of a couple of bad episodes in the middle. Guess what? Sometimes episodes in a show suck, that's a reason to give it up.
It's annoying because the last episodes were so good, especially the finale. And I don't know what growing up has to do with anything.
The days where a show like Star Trek: TNG could go on to have seven seasons, even though the first two seasons had horrible slumps, are long gone.
The show SHOULD have been the John Connor Chronicles, not Sarah Yes, Sarah is awesome because she's a "strong female character" blah blah blah. But we don't care about mommy, regardless of her MILF status.
Callum - Sniper (Lethality), Brax - Commando (Healing), Xintoch - Assassin (Tank)
Experimental postmodern bullshit is to be done after a show is well established.
That streak everyone is talking about in early-mid season 2, the "crazy sarah" episodes; they very nearly made me stop watching the show at all. I missed 2-3 episodes after that, only picking it up at the end. If they put out better episodes my opinion would be different.
Now, if they do some good comics to finalize the storyline that would be cool. I might check that out.
But I am however surprised to see how quickly people give up on a show, shit. You guys must have the attention span of goldfish, you don't give up on a show with so much potential after a crappy episode or 2.
I can't name any shows that don't have a couple of episodes somewhere in the middle that aren't as good as the rest.
It wasn't just "an episode or two," guy. It was the entire arc of the mid-season run. Show some objectivity.
Sorry, "guy", maybe it's just my subconcious ignoring the Crazy Sarah bit because I really don't remember it as being all that horrendously god-awful bad.
Just to let me clear things up, we're talking about the whole "3 dots" thing and not the "kidnapping guard/breast implant" thing yeah?

That's what Lost is built on, though. People tune in to SCC and Lost with completely different expectations.
I've been following both series, and I barely know what's going on.
Those people are crazy expensive....

$450 for an Indiana Jones knock off jacket? Why not get an original?

Even after the import fees you're still only looking at about 300 dollars or so... And you're getting it from the company that made the original... Hell, those other people have other expensive knock offs that these guys are selling cheaper....
I got my Raiders jacket from them... Though the price appears to have gone down....

its not the same! :?
This... this is true.
I can completely understand that, because it's happened to me too. I think a mid-season hiatus has killed off many shows and will kill off many a show in the future, especially if there's already a lull in the storyline. Which is very unfortunate.
Yeah the show needed to come back with an exciting arc after the (interminable) hiatus.
...Yeah.
Of course it did, Bear McCreary wrote it
