It's still in my TiVo's 'wishlist' to automatically record, so hopefully it will start airing in March.  _________________ Carpe diem. |

Any idea to where the source of this may be? I went to IMDb and this was posted in the discussion area, not on the page itself. _________________ Mathemagician & Toyster

For a series to get a nice following, it needs to be aired regularly in the same time slot, and not moved around - or chopped up into three mini seasons.
Blood Ties was canceled by Lifetime - not because it didn't have enough viewers, but because once a BT episode was done, people switched channels.
Blade was canceled - not because it didn't have enough viewers, but because they were the wrong kind.
So even making a series the the viewers like is not enough. |
Major example was the recent airings of "Dollhouse". That is what took The Guard's timeslot most recently. _________________ ILSB #102 Mistress of Terazed

I thought Doll House was canceled because of low number of viewers?
Yes, it was just a post on the IMDB board - but it could be true ... _________________

I think it was the curse of FOX yet again cancelling a good series. I actually started watching it at my Firefly and BSG group's get together's, including this past Friday night for the finale. And it was pretty good. Liked the fact that there were cast from both Firefly and BSG in it. And I developed a bit of a crush on Anthony and Topher. _________________ ILSB #102 Mistress of Terazed

Tracey,
Glad to hear you saw it is coming in commercials. I wonder when the first show will finally air here in the USA. _________________ Linda #35 ILSB

We're gonna find out what they do. I hope they don't cut out dialog because that affects the story. _________________ Mathemagician & Toyster

The first episodes are airing on March 13th that just happens to be Steve's Birthday, what a wonderful way for his US fans to celebrate his birthday with 2 episodes of The Guard, doing the happy dance  _________________ Linda #35 ILSB
