Even Rob knows it's a bad episode!
It definitely had a pre-hiatus vibe to it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, he does wish they'd gone into hiatus on a stronger note.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
WB/UPN merge
This really hoses one of the stations in most of the large markets, doesn't it? For example, it'll be good here in Providence since we don't currently have a WB affiliate, but up in Boston, either channel 38 or channel 56 are going to lose all their network programming.

The WB didn't pick up Global Frequency, so I killed it. With my mind.
i'm still distraught that GF didn't get picked up.

yeah that's what i was thinking too, DX. we have both UPN and the WB here in nashville, but i'm pretty sure memphis still doesn't have a WB station. so it will be good for them.

It nearly had a pre-permanent hiatus vibe to it. I mean, Buffy thinks so. Me, I kinda liked it despite the problems. *cough*

Our wings are not tired.
They announced here today that the UPN station would be the new station and that the current WB station is losing their programming. They put a positive spin on it saying they could be more devoted to local programming. Yeah right.

The thing is, a lot of those stations were viable independents before the WB and UPN came along. It'll be interesting to see if they can go back.

I was just wondering that, DX. I know that was the case in Boston, with WLVI 56 (WB) and WSBK 38 (UPN). They've been around for as long as I can remember.
