We could probably have a long thread on good shows fox cancelled. After Firefly and Brimstone and Terminator: TSCC, I'll name Lone Star. Which probably none of you remember, since it only lasted two weeks.

Expected...no, wanted better writing. The Abby character sux, and Orlando Jones is being wasted as a characterization.. Kinda hoped the sherriff--Abby's partner (the 'Kurgan') was going to last longer. Seems like they're rushing it, and trying to turn this into a Buffy-type series.

This is the problem with pilots. The networks require them to get a setup of every character which forces writers to reveal too much in them. This is why what Kevin Spacey said a few weeks back regarding the subject of pilots and how they need to be dumped resonated so much. Take the leap on a show and go with it.

And Kevin Spacey isn't a producer, nor does he run a network or studio. |

Maybe it's time to break the paradigm? No one can deny that the cable networks and Netflix are kicking network TV butt when it comes to dramatic TV shows.

Wasn't Kevin Spacey heavily involved with Netflix's House of Cards? Maybe that has experience has something to do with his comments.

Yeah, we just love how our entertainment prospects are decided by a corral of layabouts with clickers that focus group pilots into oblivion, giving the non-talented, non-creative $$-folk the backstop to note the talent to death, and then lock them on the sidelines with development deals for decades. Thanks.
