I'm always hungry for something new, though. It's not like I actually get a life in June.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

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

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I look forward to the cable shows in June and July so yeah, I get that.
And I love Terminator: The Summer Chronicles. I just think NBC is a little full of it right now with their huge success with winners like American Gladiator and the suckfest that was Knight Rider. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
the suckfest that was Knight Rider
That got 12 million viewers.
Oh how the mighty have fallen.
Yet, pre-strike, I watched more shows on NBC than on any other network, I think.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Rescue Me is also a summer show which does weell.

I'd be curious about the falloff. I watched because I couldn't not. But oh, the torment.

Well, it was only a backdoor pilot. They haven't ordered it to series yet.
Rescue Me is also a summer show which does weell.
The 4400 also did well, at one point bringing in USA's highest ratings ever. That may have just been the miniseries/first season, though.

Given the way they let it peter out with a much-delayed announcement of cancellation, I'd guess it wasn't pulling in good numbers at the end.

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
Knight Rider was that bad, huh? How do you screw that up?

Maybe word of mouth spread with people telling friends and relatives they had to see how crappy it was for themselves?
