The Cape -- "Razer" -- 02/28/11



Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Concerned about the protection of his gang’s city territory, Scales (Vinnie Jones) makes a controversial pact with Fleming (James Frain) and plans to bring a dangerous villain, Razer (guest star Grant Bowler), to the city. Vince (David Lyons) intercepts Razer’s arrival, disguises himself as the villain and infiltrates the inner circle of Scales and his gang. Meanwhile, Fleming battles internally with his alter ego, Chess, and Orwell (Summer Glau) remains in a dreary state, hinting at a uncertain future.


Episode 9 of 13 10*

No promo this week... even NBC is giving up on cutting them.

It was (mostly) a fun ride. I'll actually miss this one.

Episode 10 is not scheduled to air anytime soon. Next week The Event returns with 2 episodes.

I would expect the final produced episode to be burned off on a Friday or Saturday or online only.

One of my co-workers has a friend who worked on this show and he's looking for a new job. The cast and crew already knows this show is dead.

Sad to hear the show is dead. It wasn't great, but I enjoyed it.

And another show I started watching gets canceled without a proper ending, can we watch anything that is not the mainstream type shows without it getting canceled? I go for these types of programs, comic stuff, magic, powers, etc...

guest star Grant Bowler
Who lol?

What was up with Orwell? Was she still suffering from the drugs the Linch gave her?



NBC had a promo on the bottom of the screen for a special unaired episode coming soon to NBC.com.

I hope it airs before June and hope they release it on DVD and who knows it might be popular in the international market like Heroes was?

It does.
For awhile I said I am not going to bother with new shows until they are proven to have a complete story and are released on DVD.

I do not mind a shorter story at all as long as their is a complete story. I think many stories would work better as a season long story or even half a season then going on and on, many shows can do that very well while others would work better as a max series.

Tried

Terminator
Bionic Woman
Journeyman
The Cape

Others.....

The Dead Zone almost had an ending until they brought back a loose plot point.

Heroes finished that seasons story and opened it up for another one, however I can kind of take that as a loose ending, like, what now, I could see a movie ending like that, not perfect, it could have been worse.

Journeyman at least had enough time for a wrap up that worked well enough.

I am not big on all the judge shows (talent shows) or doctor, cop or court programing. The types of programing I enjoy would do better on a non major network.

Crap. I didn't even know the show was cancelled until coming in here.

The final episode will probably be saved for the DVD set.
