Okay, this isn't the most complimentary of articles, but I thought it was good for discussion here.

I normally see Bryan as an optimistic, all together nice-guy. Hence why he's always been positive with all the "HEY! We did good!" stance. But after so many cancellations especially the magic of Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies, I do think he should just work on getting the show picked up in another network instead of moving to another project that might once again be canceled.

I love Bryan, and he's made some great TV shows, and I understand he's trying to make everyone feel good about the fact that they made 22 great episodes. They did, and god love 'em for that - but I totally agree. I think this one is really worth at least an enquiry at other stations to see if they'd be willing to pick it up, rather than just running on back to Heroes. Personally, I'd love to see another series of Wonderfalls too but we all know that isn't going to happen. It'd just be nice to know that he's as willing to at least try and keep it alive as everyone else. And I'm not talking about a bloody comic, either. >:o

Totally! Heroes is all sorts of FAIL lately too, so...

And I DO NOT WANT to read comics, as much as I love them. I don't think the magic would be there. I want Jim Dale's narration, not having his voice in my head. And I want the lovely PD music playing in the background, not various sounds of my surroundings.

I'm not a huge Heroes fan anyway, really. So my childish response would be WE NEED BRYAN MORE THAN THEY DO but as i are srs cat and this are srs thread, I will reiterate that Bryan moving to Heroes would be much like leaping from one sinking ship to another.

Exactly, exactly. Without the cast and the narration and the music and all the wonderful visuals, I feel a comic would be anticlimactic to say the least.

Well,from what Bryan said at the Paley Center,he is inquirying about cable pick ups ("I think other venues will be more recpetive and have more cash then networks").But seriously,with contracts,syndications and whatnot,turning it into a movie is the more likely avenue,which is why I think he´s so focused on that.
And even though I´d take my daisies fix any way I could,comics wouldn´t be so nice.The cast and the soundtrack are priceless.

PS:enough about grammar.

A movie would be awesome as a last resort, but hearing that he is exploring other TV station avenues is great to hear. I'm positive they'd find an audience if they did that. I totally agree, too. I'm not saying the premise is nothing without the cast, but they really are a massive part of why it's such a wonderful show.

PS: yes please.

It is great to hear isn´t it?I myself am thorn between "going out with a great but certainly final bang" and "I want 22 not 2 more hours of this".Sophie´s choice,right?
But we as fans should totally do our part,you know.

It most certainly is! You're right, it is a predicament. I think if I knew there wasn't going to be this huge unsatisfying cliffhanger, I would be more than satisfied with a movie. I just wonder how many loose ends they'd be able to tie up with just two hours to play with. Absolutely, I don't think anyone should throw in the towel just yet.

Thanks! I was reading over there earlier. I'm sure we'll find out soon enough if any of the cable networks are looking to pick the show up.
