I'm only pissed at Sigh.Fie. (thank you Dork Tower) in as much as they seemed to handle the cancellation in such an asshatted way. It gave me flashbacks to the Farscape cancellation. Otherwise, they gave the show a better than decent run, and I'm glad Colin got some chances to direct as well.
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

The status is NOT quo.
Hey, semi-good news! Eureka is getting one more episode to wrap things up: [link]
Obviously not as good as a 6th season would have been, but still. Something.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah. Five seasons! That's great!

Glad that they're getting a wrap-up episode. And uh, I agree that the cancellation was really mishandled.

It seems to be par for the course. See: Farscape, Stargate SG-1 being notified of the cancellation just as they were having their 200th episode party, SGA cancellation being announced immediately prior to the SGU announcement, etc.
I assume that at least any plans to have Carter and Allison disassembled for a cliffhanger have been averted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yeah, I was going to say, mishandled cancellations is pretty much SyFy's specialty.

Heh. You have no idea how close I came to posting that the 5th season finale would have Carter and Allison turned into Skittles. I even deleted a post I started like that.

Hah. But I don't blame Sci-Fi for that--that was ALL Kemper.
