And the Next Cancelled Show is...

A friend posted this kn Facebook...

Ok I just finished the first episode of “Manifest” on Netflix and I’M SOLD!!!!

So perhaps many others? Enough for Netflix to do at least 1 more season?

Noah, something, something, sapphire, lifeboat, something, blah blah, schlump.

Was that the summary for just these season? Because maybe we can crowdsource an entire summary of the show. Let me demonstrate

All good things, Noah, something, All Good YThings, something, sapphire, ALL GOOD THINGS, lifeboat, something, ALL...GOOD....THInGS...blah blah, schlump.
 
I, for one, am disappointed. I really enjoyed the series, flaws, tropes and all. It did get a bit confusing this season, but I found the overall arc compelling enough to stick with it. I don't think Netflix needs to give it an entire new season, but perhaps a three-part mini series to tie it all up.
 
I can live without Manifest coming back. Prodigal Son I want to see returned somewhere.

Chug when The Surgeon yells, "My BOY!" with his big shit-eating psychotic grin. :D
 
I stopped mid way through season three, because the girl they brought in was way too creepy, I didn't like the story line with the guy who worked against the family, and Ben not trusting Vance and vice versa was annoying. Felt like retreads of prior seasons.
 
Took my wife and I a minute to place her: Paige from The Americans.
Nice! I liked the actress, but not where the writers took the character.
And now you've told me everything I need to know about this show and not to even bother. When I looked it up (since I hadn't even heard of it until this whole conversation broke out), she was the only part of the show that caught my attention because I loved her performance on The Americans so much. If she's being wasted on Manifest (repetitive dialogue, cliffhanger, and all), then there's no point in me watching.

Her character was a bizarre addition that seemed really random and weird.

I had no idea where they were going with her.
 
I didn’t see her on Manifest but did see her in a horrible movie last night called Rogue Hostage aka Die Hard in a Grocery Store. A total waste of her talent.
