Repeating itself

So I was digging through my videotapes tonight, and I was reminded of a really good show I liked a lot.

Doomed, though.

See, it was a genre show. Great acting, really good cinematography, a concept that hadn't really been done before, and a lot of really talented, dedicated people working on it.

But it aired on Fox. They put it in a crappy time slot and, get this, aired the episodes out of order -- ruined the continuity of the thing. Show only aired about thirteen episodes before Fox cancelled it.

Firefly? Nah. Brimstone.

Well, I prefer the "other" example more -- but, yeah, Fox execs are dicks. (Mutter mutter mutter ...)

Ooooh, Brimstone. I loved that show. Sci-Fi would occasionally go on a Brimstone marathon run and show all of the episodes on Friday night. Great fun there.
