Fail, SyFy. Just... fail.

 FIVE SECONDS OF TEXT ON THE SCREEN =/= TEASER/TRAILER/PROMO FOR BEING HUMAN.  COMING SOON =/= ANY SORT OF DATE OR TIME OR MONTH OR WHATEVER.

SYFY, YOU AND I WILL HAVE WORDS.  AND THOSE WORDS WILL NO BE PLEASANT.

I needs my Marksha.

rage!, wankers make me wank, what a waste of life, i don't even know, satan doesn't sparkle!, whiskey tango foxtrot marksha!

THAT'S what they did?!

Well, I guess that saves me from having to watch it, then.

(What is it with these networks always disappointing us?)

Yep. That's what they did. It was horrible and terrifying and made me want to cry.

That was the lamest excuse for a promo EVER. I mean like I said... it didn't even tell people anything ABOUT the show, other than there'll be biting and howling. Big deal. If someone knew nothing about the show before, they certainly still don't know anything now. I thought the point of teasers and promos is to draw people in... not to just flash stupid computer generated text across a screen for 5 seconds. I even watched the rest of the stupid episode waiting to see if they'd show something right at the end... nope, right into Haven.

EFF YOU SYFY! IF YOU WEREN'T EVENTUALLY PUTTING OUT A SHOW WITH MARKSHA IN IT, I'D BOYCOTT YOU AND YOUR LOUSY TEASER MAKING SKILLS!!

I mean really. I'm guessing this isn't going to be a Fall release, or they'd know by now when it was coming out. I'm hoping it's not going to be next year... this is crap.

IS IT SO HARD FOR THEM TO TELL US AN ESTIMATED DATE? A SEASON EVEN??

*rips out hair*

It's a good thing I'm going out drinking tomorrow, because this disappointment needs to be forgotten xD

Um, there's gonna be walking through walls, too.

Back in January, BEFORE THEY'D CAST BISHOP, they were hoping for a fall release. Just... fail.

Oh yes... how could I forget that xD That made it all better.

I saw a thingy on the IMDB board about it from January that said they were hoping for a SUMMER release or something. Now it's making me freak out that it won't be out until NEXT summer or something and DO NOT WANT!

I just... this makes me mad. And sad. And even more mad :P I wonder how the show's going to do if it's not a fall release. Isn't that the major release time? :/ This is just getting more and more distressing by the second. I mean, it's bad if they can't even nail down a SEASON that they'll premiere it in. Shouldn't it be obvious? And they've been filming for a couple months now, haven't they? Surely they must have THE PILOT done... SOMETHING to show a clip of!

I doubt they'd be "promoting" it right now if they were looking for summer.

They started filming July 29th, as far as I know. Maybe we'll get it in October/November. January at the latest.

So, I think in the future all the shows that will end up with a small-but-loyal cult-like following (such as Supernatural) should be advertised by fans. Because, such as with Supernatural, the content is pretty great overall, but the promos pretty much suck ass.

Or, you know, even shows that have an actors who have a small-but-loyal cult-like following. Or even just the SPN boys. I bet there are tons of fans who would happily make it a job to jump from project to project that any of them are working on and make epic promos that will lead to more ratings.
