Just to point out one of the threads talks about "From 3 potential job offers, to all of them on hold." from 1 day ago. This may be because the actors guild, and the screenwriters guild are both on strike right now and so nothing can really be produced at this point.
- civilitty 3y agoExcept that awful season of Battlestar Galactica where Starbuck comes back from the dead as an angel. Get ready for some truly terrible scripted television acted out by the catering crews.
- LanceH 3y agoYou know it will be chatgpt heavy scripting.
- mirashii 3y agoGiven that Ronald Moore has driven shows he’s worked on to similar absurd and horrid endings, like the similar religious subplot woven into the last season of DS9, I think we have a better culprit for the terrible last season of BSG.
- mindslight 3y agoSay what you want, but a series that actually wraps up its plot lines with any sort of coherent conclusion is miles above today's prevailing standard of one or two good seasons, followed by a bunch of filler-based mediocre seasons, followed by the show getting cancelled.
- scarface_74 3y agoDS9 had a religious subplot from the pilot.
- jbm 3y agoThe very end of that was cringey but the majority of Sisko and the Bajoran religion was solid and entertaining. The whole of DS9 season 7 was subpar, including the war plots and the musical stuff. The Pah Wraith stuff was, if anything, the interesting part.
- dunham 3y agoThe last writers strike gave us Dr Horrible - I was hoping for something like that again.
- munificent 3y ago...and season two of Heroes.
- Izkata 3y agoI think I remember reading that that season overall wasn't changed much - they just refilmed the last few scenes to resolve the plot immediately and end the season early, instead of going for a full season length.
- WorldMaker 3y agoOne of the things that was said at the time was that the show was meant to be an anthology series where every season had a substantially different cast and so some of the strange actor reuse in Season 2 was alleged to be completely strike-related. (Though in practice how much was strike related and how much was contract related in that they apparently didn't actually correctly contract the actors for an anthology series and how much of it was meddling to keep well regarded cast members busy due to public reception/studio notes is all kind of up in the air, and probably entangled.)
- Arrath 3y agoAnd an entire season of Breaking Bad with spooky cold opens that ended up being a plane crash. Wild in the end, but pretty entertaining.
