Why do I always fall in love with cancelled shows???
Tuesday, October 2, 2007

When I discovered "Firefly" it was too late. Several years too late.

To my defense I have to say that I live in a small European country where the tv channels never show anything but the biggest and worst of the American shows (or reruns from the eighties). Thanks to Internet I discovered "Firefly" eventually and fell in love. The same can also be said about "Carnivale" - one of the most beautiful and frustrating tv series I have ever seen. That one was of course also cancelled :(

And now when I have found another tv show that I totally love - "John From Cincinnati"... What happens? They cancel it! Grrrrrr!

Why? Because you are a woman (or man?)of intelligence and impeccable taste who does not fall into network executives' beloved "lowest common denominator" demographic.

At least that's what I tell *myself*. =D

Firefly gets cancelled but the not half as good and very confusing 4400 lives on, where's the justice?

I know that all good things must end but DAMN Fox for killing Firefly just as it was being born! SwedishMystery, we all know how you feel! :(

I don't understand exactly why it is the way it is, but the reason these shows tend to get canceled has a lot to do with money and pride. That's the big bad secret they won't tell you.
