Great news and meh. A show from some of the people behind LOST and a show that needs to get lost... nice synergy.Honestly, the concept of Alcatraz doesn't intrigue me much, but that creative team sure does! l definitely have high hopes for it and will be checking it out!
FOX passed on Weekends at Bellevue. So much for Deadline's intel that has said for over a week now that the pilot was a frontrunner and had lots of positive buzz.
You can scratch this one off of my pilot competition entry. Damn.
I like Saffron Burrows. I haven't seen the backdoor pilot, or her in the role of Ike, but I do like the actress and am happy that her show made it to series. It sucks that I hear she may be dropped.

So next fall?
ReplyDeleteYes for Alcatraz! No to the Finder!
ReplyDeleteGlad Alcatraz was picked up, one of the few shows I was looking forward to.
ReplyDeleteTHIS.

I'm on the same boat, but I didn't care for the concept of Fringe either, and I don't regret jumping in based on pure faith alone.
ReplyDeleteThe same for me, I hate Bones

Exactly! Some shows don't look good to me from a brief description, but the series turns out to be so much more than the description...
ReplyDeleteGlad to here about Finder. Fox owes me one after canceling almost everything I like., and keeping so much crap.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear about Alcatraz XD ... I was worried it wouldn't be picked up!
ReplyDeleteAlcatraz picked up is the only good news coming from those pricks at FOX.
ReplyDeleteboth shows are going to be awesome.... The Finder pilot was awesome and I am sure that Alcatraz is gonna blow our minds...
ReplyDeleteI love Bones, but the spin-off pilot sucked.
ReplyDeleteLost - LOVED IT
ReplyDeleteFringe - LOVING IT
Alcatraz - WILL LOVE IT
I see no way Abrams' crew can make a show which doesn't win me over. So friggin' happy :D
I understand why Fox has picked up the finder, but is it really necessary?
ReplyDeleteI'm with you there.

ReplyDeleteLet's not forget about Alias, that was a great show too (unlike Undercovers, zero creativity, major disappointment).
ReplyDeleteI hope that if Fringe was cancelled, Pinkner and Wyman would join Alcatraz writer team :-D. Or they can just create their own show :-D.
ReplyDeleteI really hope that this show would attract bigger crowd than Fringe. Assuming it`s gonna be great.
You don't make a spin-off of a show that used to be awesome during his blew year. all I got to say
ReplyDeleteI read several articles online that said Alcatraz may not get picked up... This is my official "suck it" to those articles... :D
