Wouldn't surprise me to get an announcement that FOX has cancelled the DVDs too. Any word Jack?

However, a Faith spin-off would be way cool.

We'll probably never see this, as this will be Fox's lineup by then:

Sun
6:00 Football Runoff
7:00 Simpsons
7:30 That 70's Show
8:00 Malcolm in the Middle
8:30 Simple Life 3

Mon
7:00 24
8:00 My Big Fat Obnoxious Husband/American Idol Specials

Tue
7:00 American Idol (2 hours)

Wed
7:00 American Idol (2 hour results show)

Thu
7:00 The O.C.
8:00 Untitled Reality Show About People Hooking Up on an Island or Hotel or Something

Fri
7:00-9:00 2 hours of Fox shows you like, each one for only three weeks at a time until they are cancelled

Sat
7:00 Cops
8:00 America's Most Wanted

:lol: So ture... Don't forget about midgets racing animals! :)

This really sucks. I really enjoyed Tru Calling and like everybody else has said, it did get good during the 2nd half of the season. I wish they would bring it back at some point, but I do not have my hopes up.

shit!

FOX is gonna move up prime time to 7 too?!?!?!?

FUCKERS!!

:p

Sorry, I'm in Central... forgot about that. :)

I really liked the season finale.

Shoot! Must wait longer.

Website still says Nov. 4 though?

Huh. Just a few days ago I was thinking about this show and how refreshing it was that Fox was giving it a chance. I thought maybe it was signaling a change in the thought patterns of network executives and that they'd start letting shows build an audience again, instead of cancelling them right away. I guess not. I miss the days when networks would create entertaining shows and let people watch them, instead of overreacting when the shows were making money, but not quite enough.

I own a TV for: Baseball, DVDs, TCM and HBO.

All else is Dead Shows On Leave as far as I'm concerned.

Try that, it cuts down on angst.

Producer Ponders 'Tru Calling' Fate
(Thursday, October 14 01:30 PM)

By Kate O'Hare

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) It's been a little over a month since FOX announced that it had scaled back production on the second season of "Tru Calling" from 13 episodes to six, and handed over its Thursday, Nov. 4, premiere date to the summer soap opera "North Shore."

Series producer Jon Harmon Feldman has been working on the post-production for the six episodes of the fantasy series starring Eliza Dushku ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer") as Tru, a med student and morgue attendant who can go back a day in time to prevent deaths.

After FOX had been quick on the trigger finger to cancel such series as "Harsh Realm," "Lone Gunmen," "Firefly" and "Wonderfalls," many were surprised when the low-rated "Tru" not only made it through its first season up against "Survivor" and "Friends," but looked to be coming back for a second.

"There have been rumors flying about ['Tru' going to] The WB," Feldman says, "although, at this point, I believe them to be only rumors, nothing more. They picked us up, as I was told, because they were excited about the direction of the show. They know what a tough time slot we were in, and they really believed that, based on the growth of the show, where we were heading, what we had planned for next season, that they wanted to see more of us.

"The only thing I've hard is that this decision was a business decision, to allocate money to shows that perhaps they thought had bigger futures or breakout potential. I'm not really sure how to characterize that. Obviously, when you work in network television, you always know these possibilities exist, but the way it went down was somewhat of a surprise."

The addition of Jason Priestley as Tru's opposite number and rival at the end of last season gave the show a creative boost.

"The irony is," Feldman says, "creatively, they've never been happier with the direction we were going. We had Jason as a full-time adversary, and Jason and Eliza's story had interesting twists. That's why I don't think this was a creative decision -- in fact, I know it wasn't a creative decision.

"If there's any slight silver lining -- although certainly it's a Pyrrhic victory -- is that it was not a creative decision. That is the hollowest of victories."

The first season of "Tru Calling" is set to be released by Fox Home Video on DVD on Nov. 30. Harmon hopes fans will get a chance to see the remaining episodes.

"There has been talk of releasing season two, the six episodes, to DVD as well. I hope that happens. It won't allow us to complete the arc that we were starting, but perhaps if we do release season two to DVD, at least it will give some of the creative people an opportunity to not only show those six episodes but also tell the fans what was going to happen. Those are stories worth hearing, worth telling."

FOX has yet to announce a season premiere date for "Tru."

"The network has not said they won't air these six," Harmon says, "but obviously you don't know what will happen. I am not planning a viewing party at this point."


I hope there is special suffering for the idiots that made this decision and the Last Comic Standing decisions! :mad:

I don't think the WB could go wrong if they did pick up this show if Fox eventually ditches it.

if they have a simple life 3 im gonna go get the nearest gun.

[runs to Cornholio's house to get all of his guns] Sorry man, Nicole Richie has already said that they are going to be filming Simple Life 3 real soon. This was in response to the supposed friendship ending fight that her and Paris had towards the end of the 2nd one. But they have now made up! :) [/runs to Cornholio's house to get all of his guns]

:lol:

Chris

It would be a nice fit after Smallville instead of the god-awful dreck tha is The Mountain. Having Faith in Angel's old slot would be less insulting, too.

there is no god i wonder what they will do now? maybe they will get realy lazy and just have then sitting around there mansions.

Yeah, I agree. ;)

das

Well, has the cancellation been confirmed yet?

I agree, too, but now I'm forced to watch The Mountain because James Marsters is joining the cast. Damn it. I had dropped it from my dvr list after the second ep because it was so bad.

They aren't trying to cancel it. They just ran out of expendable cash to produce this show. So it's holding on the six episodes that are in the can for now, they striked and SAVED the sets incase more cash becomes free or it gets syndicated to another station such as UPN or WB.

We really wont see any sort of outcome to this till they get some reports on how the other shows are doing and/or another station decides to pick it up.

ha, well there you go. Shows you what happens when you don't pay attention for a couple of days. :p

edit: I doubt that joss will do a faith spin off. far to late for that window.

You knew something was wrong when Fox delayed the premiere and put North Shore instead.

I wonder what's going to happen to the 6 episodes of the second season already filmed? Is the DVD release of the first season still on schedule?

Perhaps that'll be the only way to see those 6 episodes (a la Wonderfalls on DVD).

this sucks.

Still on schedule last I heard. Which really is an odd situation. Perhaps if they did it with enough advance knowledge they could have pulled the dvd and released it with a "COMPLETE SERIES" instead of only season 1. Six episodes are going to be odd to put on disc. Then again with greg the bunny, we know some model they may use.

That's what happened with Boomtown. They put it out as just a "season 1" set instead of putting the six episodes from season 2 on there. The show was already long-canceled by the time the DVD came out, so I don't know why they didn't put it all on one set. Now I doubt if those extra episodes will ever be released.
