    Default The Event

    Did anyone else see the now "series finale" last night? What an incredible ending - such a shame they have cancelled yet another brilliant TV series. IMO this is on par with SGU, the ratings fell, then when the story line became interesting again, they cancel it. Gutted.

    There is talk of another company taking the series on, but im not getting my hopes up. Lost all faith in trying to get into new TV series as half way bloody getting through one, and getting right into it, they announce the cancellation!

    Fingers crossed for another series of the event!

    At this rate there's no point getting into any new tv series, because just as you get hooked, they get cancelled, it's a joke.

    I have about 3-4 episodes to catch up on, just waiting for the Missus to go out for the night.

    I can't believe they've cancelled it – it was an excellent replacement for Heroes and FlashForward.

    I think the thing that killed it was the midseason break. It took a while to get going again when it returned.
    It was awesome when it first started, just need to watch the last one now.

    for those that havent watched the ending yet i wont give anything away but ive never seen an ending like it. had me hooked just wishing for more.

    was gutted at the ending of flashforward, they left that one on such a cliff hanger it was unreal. heroes kinda tied up nicely with the world now knowing about claires powers... but was still sad to see it cancelled.

    i agree with ilscuro... no point in watching any new tv series, until it has been firmly rooted, and given a few seasons.

    so far V, SGU, Flashforward, The Dead Zone, Ghost Whisperer, The Event, Heroes, and many more , were some that I was into and thy bloody cancelled them..

    The issue of american tv being cancelled is self-perpetuating.

    People are no longer watching new shows as they fear they will be cancelled. So, as people aren't watching, they gets cancelled. Then the cycle begins again with the next show.

    It's interesting that the Event has been cancelled, especially following the enormous marketting strategy that there was - the show was everywhere for weeks before it started. Same as Fastforward.

    I never watched it myself, even though it looked good. Didn't watch it as I feared it would be cancelled. Guess I am part of the problem

    Shooooooo-ryuken!

    Ghost Whisperer had a decent run thou. but it was same with no ordinary family, and Detroit 187 both ended strong story wise but cancelled on earlier viewing figures

    These mid-season breaks need to fuck right off, even when it isn't mid season they have random 1-3wks breaks for seemingly no reason, gets right on my wick!
