Another network really should pick this show up..

Ummmm.... I'm not going to say it, I'll wait for everyone else.

Whaaaat? No way!

You are a little late with this. Been discussed for many moons now:

Not me. I stopped watching after the first 2 episodes.

neos_peace · 06-11-2009, 09:21 PM

I am a bit upset. I know it really didn't flow with the rest of the Term. films. But I enjoyed the story line they had going for it. BUT I am not going to pick up the Blu-ray of this.

wormraper · 06-11-2009, 09:24 PM

nope, not upset. It went downhill badly in Season 2.

neos_peace · 06-11-2009, 09:35 PM

I think the only real reason got irritated by it is becasue of all the time travel they did in the series, yes I can understand that but come on. Just as a series I thought it was ok.

DrinkMore · 06-11-2009, 10:28 PM

Watched the first season. Was ok. Looked cheap, poor characters and had a feeling they were going to kill it after that. Looks like they did.

PCiAM · 06-11-2009, 10:30 PM

I loved the series, but I think I have closure with its cancellation. Most fans saw this cancellation coming probably way back in December (most of us were surprised it got renewed past the original 16 episode order for season 2). I had a lot of time to prepare myself. I was still holding onto hope and I'm bummed about it, but I'll just re-watch the blu rays. At least it had a two season run, which is more than a lot of good shows get (i.e. Wonderfalls, Firefly, etc).

It's a shame how many great shows get the axe after a season or two (IE Sledge Hammer,Brisco County Jr.,Firefly,Crime Story,Police Squad,Fawlty Towers) But shows like "Law and Order" and "The Simpsons" seem to have a lifetime lease!

stfn · 06-11-2009, 10:42 PM

I watched this first and I was very pissed, I really liked the show.

Then I decided to try Firefly and I realized I had no real reason to complain, when A++ shows like that get cancelled, TSSC is nothing.

Though it sucks, I liked the story, and I wanted to know what was going to happen, I guess we will never find out now.
I wonder if it would have been different if they didnt do so much filler episodes, those were a little too much at times.

Eldorado · 06-11-2009, 11:37 PM

They went crazy during the second season and my wife and I stopped watching. Too many loose ends, dead end stories, and just plain boring. It was devaluating the concept and cheapening the franchise. No loss here.

ScarredLungs · 06-11-2009, 11:45 PM

What a great show this is! I will be getting this on blu. Was it perfect? Nope, but it was better then 99% of everything on TV.

borninusa · 06-12-2009, 12:02 AM

I thought after about 5 episodes in, it had found its stride and was good. The second season though...sorta 'eh'

The middle portion of season 2 was especially anemic. Ironically, the show hit another creative high in its last 6 episodes but it was already too late.

I agree, I stopped watching after episode 15 or something, totally lost interest. Its a shame too because Season 1 was promising.

Skillz5 · 06-12-2009, 01:59 AM

I will buy this on Blu for only one reason alone. The music! The best reason for the show.

Beast · 06-12-2009, 02:01 AM

Hard to decide what to feel.

It ignored T3, which was a good movie.

And got cancelled with no hope of return, cause T4 was so awful.
