Sarah Conner chronicles is cancelled now? Seriously, what. the. ****.

So we never find out what happens to jon when he meets himself in the future, or any of that.......

Does fox enjoy loosing money and viewers or something? I think I'm going to make it a point to not watch any of their new series now, for this reason specificially.

**** fox.

I feel bad for Summer Glau, thats two shows now shes been bagged in?

If I were her, and my manager even said the word fox, my answer would be no, right off the bat.

The sci fi channel sucks. Most of the crap on it ISN'T even sci fi related. I got to a video store recently and I ask the lady what sci fi movies they have, she reccomends pirates of the caribbean...

On the other hand wasn't this show cancelled a long time ago due to low ratings?

Nothing to see here, move along.

We are working hard.
At the very least, we can get a movie like Firefly.

WB seems to be interested, they put up a forum for TSCC on their website.
SciFi is a further stretch, but we are trying to for them too.

We have long since given up hope with Fox. They pretty much told us to STFU.

Here is a video some of us made for the cause. Producers posted it on the fox blog.

Same here. I watched the first season and then just couldn't stick with it. I'm not sure the show even cracks the top five of Fox cancellations. It's certainly not of the same quality as Firefly, Arrested Development or Futurama.

If you think the waiters are rude, you should see the manager.

I thought the show was mediocre towards the end of season one and the begining of season 2, but about halfway into season 2, how can you NOT think it was entertaining??

Admittedly I didn't get that far.
I thought it was excessively lame from season 1 episode 1.
I kept watching though, in hopes it would get good, I gave up early season 2 when I realized I was forcing myself to watch it with no reward at all.

I started watching Squirrel King's video, but then I :carl:

and stopped it.

If a company is making no money from a show, a weird video and online petition isn't going to make them change their mind and keep making the show.

It took a while for you to find me; I was hiding in the lime tree.

It's better to just consider that AD was too good for Fox, and decided to leave on its own.

Perfect time for me personally, I would love it so much if there was actually something decent on tv when the sports are on.
But instead I deal with crappy old tv or bloody sports :suicide:

Buuuut that's the old me, the new me has internet :awesome:

I've seen maybe 1/3 of the episodes. It was an OK show, but it was very serialized. When I tried to get back into it at the end of season 2, I was too confused with a Terminator having conversations with a "good ex cop" and painting figurines trying to understand humanity. I wanted him to get his arse up and kill something.

I watched the show for its entire first season hoping that it would hit its stride. It didn't, and consequently I didn't bother to watch any of the second season. There might have been viewers willing to be more generous than I was, but I'd imagine that even most of them didn't make it to midseason if the first half of season two was more of the same. I can NOT think it was entertaining because by the time it became entertaining, I'd long since given up.

I can appreciate a slow-developing series; Dollhouse didn't really kick it into gear until, what, the sixth episode of a 12-episode season? But when a series does nothing noteworthy for a season and a half, it deserves to fail.

Damn ... SyFy / SciFi just announced: "No TSCC"

Things starting to look down.
The wiki is the most active forum I have ever been on.
We are doing more than the firefly BS, so I hope we get at least a movie or something.

Some people are thinking JF just broke down from the pressure and gave the show the demise so he could escape from it all. Maybe, maybe not. Bleh.
