Oh, what a shame. That Glitch didn't make it because most people "out there" haven't got a clue about what quality entertainment is. I agree with Hab about how new, interesting, quirky TV shows fold after one season because they don't pander to brain-dead viewers. For example: I loved the show "Life on Mars." I loved many shows like that .. but they all got pulled. The problems are (1) money, and (2) vacuous-brained people who only come alive when there is conflict of some kind to live vicariously through. The money part can be overcome, but the mindless, living zombies cannot.
Hi! Missing everybody and your comment both conspired to pull me out of lurking mode. The american version of 'Life on Mars' had a large amount of filming done where I work (Goldwater Hospital on Roosevelt Island in NYC) I remember ooooo-ing the old police car props in the parking lots, had no idea what the show would be about. I've bought the dvds but haven't watched them yet. I agree with you completely about how most folks do not want to think / be involved with their entertainment and just seem to let themselves be brain-washed with drek. Wow do I miss the wonderful, funny, brilliant people who played Glitch. Forums are not the same.

Dewa - It is so good to find you out of lurking mode! I will respond to your intelligent comment in a few hours. Right now, I am falling asleep at the keyboard (11:57 PM), so it's time to go to bed. I'll be back!
*poke* you have a rav message waiting from the other day:) I've found the email notification feature helpful for those, myself.
