'Selfless'
This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.
They keep saying that they're going to air the unaired episodes of Tru Calling.
The surest way to get a devoted fandom to hate your new show (Point Pleasant,) is to blame it for the cancellation of their show (Tru Calling.) Gail Berman should know that by now.

No kidding. I still run across the occaisional vitriol from rabid Dark Angel fans.
Of course, there were also petitions to cancel it.
This boggles my mind. I'm always of the opinion "If you don't like a show, just don't watch it." I've never understood how the existance of a TV program, no matter how distasteful it may be, can directly impact someone's life.
I certainly never loved it, but I stuck with it till the bitter end, long after I realized how bad it was. It got better, but too little too late.
I tried watching it but gave up after about 6 episodes. Much like last season's Alias, I realized I had 3 unwatched episodes on tape and no real desire to dedicate the time required to sit down and watch said episodes.

Well, Fox has aired several reality shows that I consider insulting enough or downright harmful enough to society to be worth calls for cancellation. But I don't think fictional situations can have that same sort of impact.
Buff Diving just said:
I feel that Save Our Show campaigns are so last season. I think the next evolution in fashionable fandom activities should be Cancel That Other Show campaigns.
I vote that we start with Everybody Loves Raymond.
Because, you know, everybody really doesn't.
Oh, that Kristen.

Lemme guess. Does it rhyme with The Bwan?
Or Waying It Flaight?
Booze Your Maddy?
Die Rig Obsequious Chianti?
lol...
It occured to me the other day that Tru Calling was basically a cross between Quantum Leap (going back in time to prevent the deaths of individuals and having to figure out what went wrong) and Crossing Jordan (young woman whose mother's murder haunts her works in a morgue w/ an ensemble cast made out of colleagues and family; even the titles of both shows are puns on the heroine's unusual first name).
How about Crossing Leap or Quantum Jordan as a title?
Right. I understand the reality show thing. Fiction not so much.
Speaking of Quantum Leap, it's kind of sad. I loved that show when it was on, but when I saw the DVDs in Best Buy the other day the thought of rewatching all the episodes just didn't appeal to me.
