No joke, it was such a great series. I'm just glad they let them wrap it up and finish the story, and even though it felt a tad rushed, it wrapped things up nicely I felt.

What?! Let me guess, they needed room in the lineup for a Wife Swap spinoff...

5 Lessons TV Should Learn After Losing Heroes

jmsremax · 05-18-2010, 11:41 AM

I never watched Heroes but I recall their commercials prior to the season starting stating that they promise not to disappoint this season. That alone made me laugh and I can see their fan base and critics weren't that interested.

OLS · 05-18-2010, 11:43 AM

I watched that ONCE.

JJG · 05-18-2010, 12:16 PM

one of the things I find most annoying in television, is when the writers of a show clearly have no long-term ideas for where the plot is headed. As a result, story lines get started, then abandoned, and bizarre occurrences start happening with more frequency, like characters getting killed and coming back to life all the time, alternate universes where the good guys are bad and vice versa, the reappearance of a long lost twin sibling nobody knew about

-all clear indications that the writing team is just pulling sh*t out of their a$$es. You see it happen all the time, but mostly with shows that have been on the air for a long time.

I wasn't sorry to see Prison Break go, that show got way too weird too, but I loved Jericho.

kenstogie · 05-18-2010, 01:10 PM

Yea it got a little strange in the end but I loved most of it. I sure did miss Jericho though.

OLS · 05-18-2010, 02:22 PM

Prison Break would have been a great two season show.

DBall · 05-18-2010, 03:59 PM

WTF... this, Flashforward and possibly V... these are pretty much the only shows I watch.

Ugh.

jmsremax · 05-18-2010, 04:00 PM

Once Lost is done ABC is f'ed.

Not entirely. V is doing pretty well for sci-fi, and they still have the reality stuff like Extreme Home Makeover, Dancing With Stars, and Supernanny, which all do well with the reality fan lemmings..

Flash Forward got axed? Its always the good shows, Jericho, The 4400, now Flash Forward?

I blame my wife. Even though she loves Flash Forward, she is fan of all that reality crap. ALL of it.

It seemed like the creative minds behind the show had a few great ideas for the initial season, but everything after that was a "make it up" as they went thing that didn't seem to turn out too well.

They lost me after last season!!!

Ugh.

From what I hear Flash is out and V is in. It was one or the other. ABC always intended for one of these to replace LOST. Unfortunately both received terrible ratings and they had to choose the lesser of two evils.

Supposedly the writers of Flash are rewriting the last couple episodes to bring closure to the series. I'm just glad they aren't pulling a Will Traveler.

Brutus2600 · 05-19-2010, 09:05 AM

I refused to watch Flash Forward or V until one or the other was picked up after their pilot season. I hate starting a show that I really enjoy then having it get cancelled (Jericho, Eli Stone, etc etc)

Are you asking me or telling me? It does well. I can't stand it, but then I don't like most reality stuff, except for a few shows like Kitchen Nightmares.
