Title: SG Atlantis
Post by: Kathyp on November 20, 2008, 10:58:36 am
another show i like cancelled.  i read through reasons given.  among them; not enough live viewers.  i dvr everything.  many,  like beemaster, watch shows online.  i think they need a new way to decide popularity of shows.

to be fair, they intend to continue the story with movies as they did with SG1.  there may also be another spin-off.

Aren't the live viewers the only ones that are seeing the commercials which pay for the show?

yes :-)  there are some commercials online.  not many.  usually one or two sponsors.

even so, if this is the way people are going to view, and the networks are going to enable this behavior, they need a better way to determine the popularity of shows.

I'm gonna watch this in FULL SCI-FI Online or Jump in sometime - I know it is good, everyone who watches talks high of it, I need to eventually catch it.

I just finished watching Sanctuary and really good tonight, about a young savant who drawls a dot matrix style, 3d and high def drawling of things he remembers in EXTREME detail. Cool thing was he could do a sketch pad sized image in just a single minute. Neat show, clever plots.

Gonna miss MONK, here it is cancelled too. Not sure about this SPECIAL of Monk and Physic coming up - wonder if it is Monks last?
