Kristen, I can mock with you and I applaud your whitefonted suggestion.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I watched it. The fact that this guy hasn't a clue the studio just might take exception to spending millions of dollars so he can exclusively cast his relatives rather than actual actors tells me he's not qualified to direct a 1950s public health reel .
If Allyson does get the job, it'd certainly be a more proactive move on the part of the Save Wonderfalls and Save Firefly campaigns than any of the other fans were able to make...

I loved Project Greenlight -- they ought to subtitle this season: Project Railroad Crash.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey all...
Well, it's all true. We're cancelled and we're off for good. No new ep on Thursday... In a way I'm glad because Thursday's episode didn't quite come together the way I would have liked and I would have hated for that to be our final word. Eps 9-12 were going to be pretty cool, though. Lots of twists and scary stuff.
Anyway - thanks to those of you who care. It's been a bumpy ride for sure. If you feel inclined you can bug Fox studios to issue the season on DVD. I know they are thinking about it - and you'd get to see all the "lost" eps, which will be airing overseas.
Again - thanks for watching. We had a blast.

Poor Marti + cast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh. To be replaced by the previously cancelled Tru Calling must sting.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
In a twisted sense of irony or something, they'll be using that slot to show the rest of the Tru Calling episodes.
DAMN YOU ita.
I hear Point Pleasant was becoming tolerable. The second season of Tru Calling, though is probably better. I have yet to see the last episode, but the first five? Good stuff.

Well, it's sad that they didn't get to air the whole season. (I know at least one person who will be upset at this.)

I'm sad they're not showing Point Pleasant anymore. It was worth giggling over, and some of the ideas behind the crappy plots were pretty interesting. And Elisabeth Harnois and Grant Show (I think that's his name) were great, and since they were the main girl and the main bad guy, between the two of them they did a decent job of being in almost every scene.

Afraid I can't mourn its passing, as I think it aired for more weeks than it deserved based on what little I was able to stomach. But I do hope that Marti and the rest find new projects quickly, and have better luck with them.
