Whoops. Sorry. I broke the chain.
OH, well shit gotta stop sometime... by PezQ	Jul 26th, 2007 09:34:13 PM
A fine day indeed...now where are all the Lost panel updates..?
Greenwalt was probably sick of the Angel comparisons by Keg boy	Jul 26th, 2007 09:40:09 PM
Why else would he quit the day before the Con presentation. Speaking of which, where's the Lost scoop? The session ended over an hour ago.
Jason Dohring, Joel Silver & Rob Thomas Reunited??????? by Darth Fabulous	Jul 26th, 2007 09:54:43 PM
Certainly would dull the pain of Greenwalt leaving this potentially watchable show...
I 'll watch my Angel DVDs by JediShaft	Jul 26th, 2007 09:55:29 PM
WHO CARES ABOUT THIS REHASHED SERIES??? Go watch Kindred, Forever Knight or Angel.
LOST PANEL UPDATE: New info! by eggbeater	Jul 26th, 2007 09:57:42 PM
Harold P showed up and confirmed he'd be back next season (but we already knew that). They showed a new DHARMA video w/ marvin candle talking a bout another hatch: The Orchid. Here is a description-DHARMA REVEAL: PIECE OF FILM "DISCOVERED IN NORWAY" IS SHOWN...IT IS WICKMAN WITH RABBIT MARKED "15"...a new orientation film for "station six orchid." He apologizes for instructing the viewer to deceive their family as to the nature of the research - it is not botanical. He is holding a rabbit marked 15, and another is on a shelf marked 16...wickman calls himself edward allawitz....then things start falling, camera pans on rabbit, implying that the rabbits are the cause of building shakes and light breaking. End. Here's a link to this info:http://livelost.blogspot. com/
I think they have done the Vampire thing to death by TVguy4566	Jul 26th, 2007 10:24:09 PM
When Lifetime has their own Vampire series, you know it is time to give the genre a rest. This show has disaster written all over it even if Rob Thomas comes aboard. What will he fire all the new cast except for Jason Dohring? There seemed to be somany pilots with potential not picked up, maybe CBS should rethink this one.
Dohring is the only reason... by Prof. Pop-Cult	Jul 26th, 2007 11:23:59 PM
...Jason Dohring is the only reason why I'm going to check this out. The whole vampire thing is played out, however. And isn't it kind of appropriate that he's playing a vampire in a show that is already reminding us of Angel? I say appropriate, because Logan on Veronica Mars was sort of the analog to Spike (i.e. Veronica = Buffy, Mac = Willow, Logan = Spike).
Oh, please -- I want to watch Moonlight! by AnnoyYou	Jul 26th, 2007 11:47:08 PM
If Thomas gets his grubby mitts on it, all bets are off. Jesus. Why would they fire Greenwalt, who was the best showrunner the Buffyverse ever had? Thomas will just run it into the ground, the way he did VM. I hope this doesn't happen, because Thomas is the kiss of death.
Didn't we already have a vampire detective series by mrmgp	Jul 27th, 2007 12:05:16 AM
on CBS late night back in the late 80s?
drunk horny vampire astronauts!!! by datachasm	Jul 27th, 2007 12:30:21 AM
im working on the pilot right now, so networks get your bids in order!
First Joss, then Greenwalt...Hmmm by glodene	Jul 27th, 2007 02:47:22 AM
Twould appear that Joel Silver is an enemy of Mutant Enemy. I say we boycott all of his future endeavors. CRY HAVOK AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR!
I'll try to ask Joel Silver tomorrow... by Great White Snark	Jul 27th, 2007 03:17:29 AM
Good question, Herc! I'm covering Joel Silver's panel tomorrow for CBR, so I'll see if I can ask him. (Some of the Q&A sessions have been rather stunted...)
greenwalt wasn't fired by mollyunravel	Jul 27th, 2007 05:33:42 AM
according to ahollywood reoprter he left for "personal, health reasons" and michael ausiello cites "exhaustion". and rob thomas is in talks with abc so i doubt he'd head over or moonlight, though i suppose it's not totally out of the question.
This shows going through more pre-on air drama by Yeti	Jul 27th, 2007 05:59:25 AM
than Brothers & Sisters did last year.
Vampire detectives... by Kid Z	Jul 27th, 2007 07:38:57 AM
... I mean, c'mon... gimme a break!
Drat! by Raymar	Jul 27th, 2007 10:30:17 AM
Never had too much hope for this but what there was because of GW's involvement.
Moonlight =Angel copycat by wowsah156	Jul 27th, 2007 10:58:31 AM
Moonlight has no chance . Whoever thought that a show about a vampire detective will exist after Angel getting cancelled is deluded. Lack of imagination.
RE: greenwalt wasn't fired by Neo Zeed	Jul 27th, 2007 01:32:28 PM
Exhaustion? Isn't "exhaustion" a code word for drug or alcohol adiction? At least, that's what I've learned from Lindsay Lohan.
Moonlight has a chance... by lynxpro	Jul 27th, 2007 03:20:09 PM
It has Sophia Myles in the cast, and she is quite the beauty. She portrayed the blonde vampire in the Underworld films, and if you haven't seen "The Girl in the Fireplace" episode from Series 2 of Doctor Who, go out and rent it because she was definitely great in it.
It is Forever Knight but... by DallasGoodbar	Jul 27th, 2007 05:56:33 PM
