And the Next Cancelled Show is...

Yeah the creators have an idea for POI stories for a couple more seasons they said. They just will be smart enough to not have a massive cliffhanger... hopefully.
 
Saving face.

If the ratings were good, it wasn't a miniseries after all.

The story was shit.

All I wanted was Hiro and Ando in Vegas.
 
You are probably right, at the time I thought it was great but I have no intention to revisit it anytime soon. That said, Reborn was worse than Heroes' worst seasons, blergh.
 
On the Person of Interest stuff.

Last year when it looked like it might be gone it was noted that Netflix like series to have an ending, especially for a show like Person of Interest that has an big ongoing story arc. So the networks have that added incentive to have a short final season to tidy it up and make it 'complete' so to say.
 
Well it was called Heroes.
Yeah I went there, even the first season wasn't as amazing as people act.

The thing that bothered me the most about Heroes was that if people all of a sudden found out they were getting special abilities, you'd think at least one person would put on a mask and go out saving people.

That and the fact that the story line never seemed to progress at all is what ultimately soured me on the show.
 
Do you realize in the real world how hard it is to go out and save someone as they need saving from muggings and... ?

Superman and Daredevil have super hearing, everyone else cruising around for trouble has the same odds as winning powerball as they do finding trouble.

Unless we are talking about Central Park after dark.

Okay, think about this.

Why stalk hapless potential victims into the darkened woods waiting for them to be victimized, when you can tell these idiots not to go in there where the drug dealers and murders are frolicking with abandon, which you don't need super powers to do, or you just wander around the Park shaking trees trying to flush all the thieves and sex maniacs out before the steal or flash what's under their trench coat at any passer by at 11pm, which is precrime and makes you a super villain rather than a super hero.
 
Regardless of how easy or difficult it would be to save people because of the reasons you cited. I still think in the real world if someone (like a comic book fan) was all of a sudden imbued with super powers they would try to do the superhero thing at least once.
 
I'm glad to hear about Scream Queens. I wasn't sure I liked it at first, but it grew on me as the season went on. Not sure how I feel about season 2 taking place in a hospital. The article also mentions many of the same actors will be back, likely playing the same characters. I kind of wish it would be something new each season, like the network version of American Horror Story.
 
Scream Queens, Jessica Jones, and Empire are on my 'to watch' list.

I have so many shows (current, classic, old) that I need to catch up on that I actually made a folder of shows I want to (or need to) catch up on.
 
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt renewed for season three before the second one even starts.
