All I want is 1 more season to answer some questions and wrap up the story. More than 1 season would be nice but I think they could do everything in 1 if they know it will be the last.

Ugh. Those can be a real mixed bag though. The Deadwood movie and Sopranos prequel are examples.

Because HBO is a giant mess right now and even though RBW was some of the best sci-fi created, the majority of people unfortunately want easy to follow, lobotomized content that doesn't make them think too hard.

This has “You need a high IQ to understand Rick and Morty” energy all over it.

Stop blaming other people that they didn’t want to watch your favourite show.

BeefStrykker t1_j1s40iy wrote

I had a conversation about HBO’s cancellation shitshow on Christmas Eve while at a party. I mentioned RBW, and several people immediately panned it. I said something to the effect of “Well, I just appreciated a good Alien side story to build out a possible new universe”. Confusion ensued. My girlfriend and I were the only 2 people at a party of ~30 to 40 people who were aware of RBW’s existence in the Alien universe. Some of the people who panned the show earlier immediately jumped on the novel argument that RBW got cancelled because it should’ve had Aliens in it.

A lot of people apparently don’t pay attention to what’s behind much of the TV/movie entertainment these days. Or I hang out in the wrong crowds. Or both?

1

JohnnyMojo t1_j1s5u3e wrote

Yeah that sounds about right. No one in my close friend or family circle knew about it. I tried to tell some people to watch it but no one did. The show didn't have much marketing behind it and it seemed like HBO didn't really care to prop it up much to begin with. Hard original sci-fi is a tough sell which is unfortunate because it's often the most rewarding and entertaining.

Locke_Moghan t1_j1shm4i wrote

> Hard original sci-fi is a tough sell

I find this very surprising. Hard original sci-fi is in such short supply that all sci-fi fans jump on whatever is available.

The usual arguments by studio heads are about the larger budget, not the popularity.

Snuffl3s7 t1_j1s5upg wrote

I'm not basing my opinion of the entire show on the pilot, I don't have one. But it's the pilot's job to get me to watch the rest of the show, which it failed to do.

Twin Peaks has one of the strongest pilots of all time, in contrast. Even relatively poorly written shows like Lost have great pilots, and that goes a long way.

JohnnyMojo t1_j1s76ls wrote

I get it to some degree but a show can only do so much within it's first episode. RBW was like a puzzle that only gets weirder and weirder as it goes on.

I definitely don’t think Lost is poorly written, I would’ve used The Walking Dead as an example of a poorly written show with a great pilot.

1

Snuffl3s7 t1_j2dudmx wrote

Really? To me it's very clear from watching 3 seasons of Lost that the writers didn't know where they were going. And also the season-long plot was always very contrived and see-through. Again giving an impression that they were making it up as they went along.

The Walking Dead is in the same boat.

I used to find they had a lot of filler in the middle of the first three but the arcs would pay off brilliantly. The Walking Dead is just a mess tbh.

He was the showrunner. He wrote and directed multiple episodes.

verrius t1_j1tc2c5 wrote

The Nevers was DOA. Joss Whedon was radioactive before the premiere, when all the drama regarding Justice League was coming out. Then he went and doubled down on his woe-is-me schtick 8 months after the premiere, and no one was buying the bs he peddled, so there's no chance WB would have picked it up again, even without Zaslav's axe of destruction carving a path through programming.

LostAbbott t1_j1sfca4 wrote

I think the marketing killed it. The pushed hard on the "woke" women have super powers in victorian angle and that made it seem really one dimensional. Also after the initial marketing push I never heard another thing about it. These day you have to keep your show in front of people until it gets a built in fan base. Then you can just hit it up when a new season is coming.

I was just surprised because the show had a good way of letting characters cycle in and out. It was a steady show, not a great show. But given the structure, it had the potential for a long run because the writers could take it in so many directions. They boxed themselves in a bit with their “big bads” in the last couple seasons but had cleared the board enough to take it in a new direction.

The bloodbath at the CW this year. I would have loved a:

  1. Legacies Season 5 (S4 though did have a good ending to the Vampire Diaries Universe). Season 4 was overall its best season. They actually acknowledged and crossed over a lot with both Vampire Diaries and the Originals and got away from Malivore

  2. Nancy Drew Season 5 (Ending after upcoming S4)

  3. Dead to Me (Netflix) Would love a 4th season

  4. Ozark (Netflix, Overall I really loved the series but I was so disappointed in those last 5 minutes of the finale)

  5. Roswell, New Mexico (The CW did a decent job ending season 4 but they left it open potentially for a 5th season)

Edit: if we are allowed to put Networks ending (being canceled) on here I would put the CW Network. Nextar killed the CW this year with cancelling 14+ series and counting. I will be surprised to see what is still on the network in the 2023-2024 season. The CW has put out some of my favorite TV shows to this day. The CW network will surely be missed

Paper Girls was a treat! They deserved season 2.

I'm not the same person you replied to earlier. I was just correcting you about her age.

Season 2 is much better, they approved on a lot of things imo. Like it's more fast paced but still plot driven, less inner monologues. Honestly just really liked seeing how the characters grew, especially Ava.

Idk, I think it's worth a shot!

Fair enough if you didn't like it but even with a slow start to season 2, they did improve on a lot of things to make it a better show.

Shame they never got a chance with it really.

Also the main character is meant to be a teen, how did you miss that? She's also shorter than your usual tv actress.

Everyone that worked on it and made a trash product was a slap in the face to the companies that paid them a bunch of money to make it. The product must have been such shit that it wasn’t worth the additional brand hit by releasing it and trying to recoup what you could.

ehhh, all the ones I'm familiar with on this list, deserved to be canceled. That's what happens when you don't give a shit about the source material. and/or "make it for a modern audience"
