    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    Having seen the pilot my advice is to try and steer clear of any spoilers or detailed information about the show. It's best to go in cold and be surprised. Trust me when I say, it's far from what most people are expecting.

    What "Pilot" TV Show that never made it as a series would you buy?

    Off the top of my head: LIFE ON PAROLE (FOX) - Comedy about a parole officer (Dave Herman of "Office Space" fame) whose best friend is one of his parolees. Jon Favreau directed it. NORTH HOLLYWOOD (ABC) - Comedy about struggling actors that starred Jason Segel, Kevin Hart, Amy Poehler...

    Wonderfalls 1.02 - Karma Chameleon (03/19/04)

    My understanding is that while shot 11th, the episode was always intended to air as the second episode. (And in that same regard next week's episode was the 13th shot but was always meant to air third). Since "Wonderfalls'" shooting schedule would be completed long before it actually began...

    UPN's new show "Game Over" bombs....Whose fault is it?

    I don't really think you can blame UPN as a whole for "Game Over's" failure. While it's easy to cherry pick UPN's previous failures, the truth is the WB's, FOX's, NBC's, etc. history is just as littered with canceled series. Keep in mind that on average at least 3 out of every 4 new series won't...

    24: Day 3 - 2/24/04 - Hour 15

    It was actually one year ago today (February 25, 2003) that FOX renewed "24" for its current third season. Keep in mind though that the majority of series are picked up in May when the networks announce their fall schedules so its early pick-up last season was the exception, not the rule. In...

    Tru Calling - Season 1 on DVD?

    Actually "Dark Angel" was far from a flop: 10.24 million viewers watched the first season on average (including 17.4 million for the pilot). That's more than watched the first season of "24" (8.62 million on average) and both aired in the Tuesday, 9:00/8:00c slot on FOX. It was only when it...

    School's out for Boston Public?

    Actually the old federal Fin-Syn rules said that a show couldn't be syndicated until four calendar years from its premiere date. At that time most shows reached 100 episodes by the end of their fourth season, hence why most people associated 100 episodes as being eligible for syndication. In...
