: And it's pretty much over, I guess. Very seldomly does a show launched in
: the summer get picked up.
Cross your fingers and hope for the best!
All of your fans will be watching, that's for sure.
: This is why t.v. sucks, folks. And - with the exception of 'The Simpsons',
: 'Law and Order', and 'The X-Files' - this is why I use my television solely
: as a means to watch DVD's, videos, and porn.
Do you like Malcolm in the Middle?
: I guess it's time to go back to the day job. On that subject, wait 'til we : announce what's next on the horizon. It's a humdinger, and a helluva way : to close out the Askewniverse flicks. Were it not for this, I'd be a lot : bluer about ABC's dumping of 'Clerks'.
OK Kevin, you are just being a tease now! Please spill .....
On the ABC note... it is all politics! Not hard for anyone to see that. Networks and other huge congolmerates seem to decide what (and who) is popular. I hate how the whole machine works: actors and actresses are chosen at certain times so they can cash in, while others step back from the limelight.
My point is that *someone* has purposely given you this air date for reasons you might have no idea about.
Don't fear though Kevin, you will have your chance to shine again :)
