Boomtown

[Peaches]

This is fast becoming one of my all time favorite shows. It's very well written, well acted, the story lines are great, etc. If you're NOT watching, please start so they don't cancel it Plus you'll enjoy it - really!

I know how you feel peaches!! I was so pissed and disappointed when NBC cancelled UC: Undercover last year!!

If it does get cancelled though i hear they are considering starting a cable channel that is going to show primarily tv shows that got canned but were quite good.

[VooMan]

Yeah, I couldn't understand why they canned UC Undercover. That was an excellent show...

Hey Enforcer, love the avatar. I used to have all the Calvin and Hobbes books.

[TheEnforcer]

Oh yeah. calvin and Hobbes ruled! i have several of the books and even after reading them many times over I often laugh so hard I have tears in my eyes!!

I used to read the comics religiously every day but quit after Watterson stopped creating Calvin and Hobbes!!

mutt and Edd found em and put them up for me!!

American Gothic - another excellent show that was canceled :angry: I've seen it showing on Scifi though

I watch BoomTown and it (like UC UnderCover) is a great show. I'm with you Enforcer - pissed UC was cancelled. BoomTown has a good time slot after the Sopranos on NBC. If it would have competed with the Soprano's I don't think it would have as good of ratings as it does.

Nina Garbiras is one hot looking lady. I'd offer to be her boy toy any day!

wow that is a GREAT idea for a cable channel - a channel that picks up shows that the networks cancelled.

Networks need big ratings, excellent shows get killed every year even though they have large audiences of hardcore fans, just not big enough for one of the big 4 networks.

but i don't know how a cable channel can afford to keep producing the shows with the same quality because it's very expensive to shoot an episode of a high quality tv series.

great idea though.

there was a show when i was a teenager, i love it and it only lasted like 4 or 6 weeks, Bay City Blues, about a minor league baseball team, i think Steven Bochco produced it. wish it could have survived. i used to wack off to one of the wives of the baseball players, Michelle Green, i think she was in Porky's too. Don't know what happened to her.

Wow, you're young - I remember that show (loved it!) and watching it when my kid was a newborn

yeah, Cop Rock rises from the grave!

and Profit...excellent series, lasted 3 episodes, supposedly has a couple more sitting in the can somewhere...

and the greatest series of all-time - Get A Life

problem with something like that is picking up older series, there wouldn't be a enough episodes to keep going...say a show is cancelled after only 1 season, there would only be 13-20 episodes available and it could burn out quickly...

Is that the one about the rich jerk high powered business guy that slept in a card board box? If so, I LOVED that show!
