5. do you mean "Moonlighting"?
If so, that sucks - I love that show! I've also been waiting for it to come back, for what seems more like years than months! God, I hope this isn't true!!

11. Who did? Didn't I just see the pilot...
on some cable channel a few days ago? And they dropped it already?

Netflix to the rescue! I added season one (the only season, afaik) to my queue. Four disks.

13. Now we'll be able to see the stars. But walking at night in the woods will be harder.
I wish they'd cancel Drought in Texas.

15. I was pretty upset when it happened.
I think it's the first time I've actually written the people responsible for making the decision to tell them how stupid they are.


Totally shocked me too, since vampires are big right now, and the show, while it didn't have fantastic ratings, did have growing ratings, so it seems stupid to get rid of something that was bringing in more viewers.

18. I was upset about it too
I sure do miss Nick St John.

:9 :9 :9


I wasn't that impressed when it first started.... it seemed... Vampire Lite, somehow. But it was interesting enough to keep me watching every week. Then, it got really good. Everybody found their footing and the characters started to really fill out.

But they cancelled it right as it would have taken off! x(


Sci Fi channel is rerunning it.

27. I'm still seething about Pushing Daisies
I'm not a fan of vampire stuff, but I feel your pain. The networks are making some damned stupid decisions as they hide behind their complaint of economic hardship. Pretty soon it's going to be reality shows and game shows--oh yeah, and primetime Jay Leno--24/7 on every channel. :(

29. True, but ABC never did get behind it
Not to mention the ratings system is so outdated. The people who loved Pushing Daisies didn't necessarily watch it live--lots of online viewing and watching it later on the DVR, neither of which gets counted in the official ratings (IIRC). So the eedjits who looked only at the ratings numbers and saw it "sucked", especially in relation to how much it cost to produce, dealt it the death blow.

30. I worked for a ratings group
The people who participate in those surveys live in middle America and watch Sanford and Son.
