Re: Delete

Fox will probably just cancel it after two episodes, which will spark a campaign to mail in the delete key from your keyboard to the studio. If that doesn't work there's always Kickstarter. I hear the showrunner is already talking to Rob Thomas.

I prefer the original English version to this far inferior US remake

This show is a new low. I'm giving up on TV.

Erase was pretty great but the ending was a little too far out of left field. Supposedly the makers of Delete have a far more logical ending in mind.

Then again, the ending of the American remake of Life On Mars was just as bad (for different reasons) as the ending of the UK version.

A bit formulaic but I'll give it a few more episodes.

If ever a show lived up to its title. They might as well just "delete" it now!

You're a few issues behind. They already retconned that.

Nope. Turns out that the non-Cylon Rick was a clone of Picard.

Cylon Rick should've offed the smoke monster when he had the chance. Lame he'd let him live.

Alt was one of the best in the genre.

Ctl was ok not sure I liked the twist.

Delete was the worst ending to a trilogy ever.

To be fair, the eventual system crash was foreshadowed during the pilot for Ctl. But, yeah, the twists added in Alt were riveting. But it still pisses me off that they killed off F4. First Angel and then Alt. What the hell does Joss Whedon have against poor cute sexy Amy Acker?

Why did he think that such an important episode needed to have that "do you know what hapens to a toad when it's struck by lightning" exchange? It was terrible in X-Men and it was terrible during the mid-season finale of Delete.

What are you talking about? He was the best part of the series.

But I was creeped out by Willem Dafoe as his drag queen brother. It worked in The Boondock Saints but was totally overdone here. The constant thong shots were uncalled for.

It's the anticipated spin-off of Person of Interest, where each week a know-it-all Mac sends the number of a person who must be deleted from society to a hit-man and his handler.
