WB Thanks the Fans

I agree--the only reason I clicked on the thread is because I associate the poster nx1701g with TSSC, because he/she starts a lot of the episode review threads.
Yeah, 31 episodes in total isn't enough--I think with everything they've introduced this season, they need a 3rd season just to tie it all up. I don't know how likely that is, but it would be nice.
OT: Sorry it wouldn't let me edit.
Little off topic again by Joss Whedon said today that Terminator is his favorite show on TV (replacing Battlestar).

They already did that in T3.
I agree with your Smallville comments though. I hope the show ends that way too.
Ah, but the problem with that is that t3 never happened and can't happen in this timeline. The inelasticity of time needs to be proved otherwise we have to wonder what "futures" have been attacking the past.
That's why I liked Time Tacks. they actually admitted that they were going diagonally backwards into an alternate time time line which was disconnected from where they came from which took all the causality problems off the table.

Here's FOX's note thanking "Firefly" fans:
What's "Time Tacks"? I don't remember that show.
Sorry. Time Trax. Mid 90s. Many many many criminals use time machines to travel back 150 years to a nearby similar timeline. A time Cop is also sent back to capture the "timecrim of the week" who is usually using future tech or exploiting foreknowledge to make living in the distant past acceptable.

I wouldn't say that it couldn't happen. The dates in TSCC are all different from the movie series. Besides the producers have said (and pretty much shown) that aspects of that film are being explored. Namely Sarah's cancer.
And that's what I meant by inelasticity, though now I'm wondering if I meant elasticity? I mean that the future slinks back into a familiar shape no what changes are made seems entirely morphic except that the end result is that nothing changes eventually after everything changed...
But that's the single track theory which only works in dud universes like Charmed continuity.
Peronally I liked Butterfly effect where the changes to the timeline caused intense physical issues as 20 something years worth of memories tried to instantly assert themselves along side what Ashton already knew to be true from the other timelines he had experienced... Because really, in back tot he Future at the end, marty should have run smack into the other Marty McFly indigent to the new timeline he had created where George and Lorraine were successes, much like there should have been another Picard trapped under the rock slide suffocating when picard escaped the Nexus to kick caligula's ass.

We have seen on the show that time does seem to be trying to mend itself to ensure certain things do happen. For example: the Chess Tournament. In the original timeline Turk won and Andy Goode was hired by the DOD. The result of his employment: Skynet. He survives Judgment Day to tell Derek Reese of his involvement.
Timeline 2: In the new timeline Derek Reese goes back in time to stop Skynet. Derek Reese finds and kills Andy Goode after the chess tournament; however, this reality already has his portion of the Skynet project completed: the more advanced Turk2 caused by Sarah Connor.
Time seems to be trying to repair itself.

Temporal momentum?
Oh, okay. Spelling mistake then. I DO Remember that show.
Yeah, that makes me feel a lot better..hehe
After canning Angel, and beating the dead horse that is Smallville(utter bilge) and Charmed (urgh!), the WB deserved everything they got, IMHO.
Essentially is not good enough... Hey? Can they actually call a show Metropolis? I mean legalese and the such, intellectual rights copy right bullshit, because there's Fritz Lang's masterpiece M... "Lang"? Fuck, how could I have never noticed that before?
Okay, my dream alternative title, after so many years of JMS' run on bullshit... "Mild Mannered Reporter Working for a Great Metropolitan Newspaper".
Fuck brevity.
Fuck brevity.
