Ok see that makes me mad. I'm sure it's not a big deal but the idea the they have to change things in order to fit it in or adjust because of this strike makes me think I'm missing something. One of my biggest fears was that this show would either end up like twin peeks or like the X-Files. I hated the idea that the writers would have to drag it out to satisfy the higher ups or cut it short because of frustrated fans. Once I heard neither would happen I was very happy but then this strike happened and I knew it would change things even if just a little.

I'll just pretend this was the way it was always going to be. Have to use my short term memory for something I guess.

Your concerns are for not.

This show is going to be six seasons long. That's already been decided.

They may have to rewrite a couple episodes to accomodate and condense the important things in the storyline for THIS season, but the arc is set. They know what's going to happen.

But I'll hand you a bone, I like Project Runway. Although this year there were no real assholes. Everybody got along and were genuinely really nice. Maybe the obligatory ass got booted out in the first show.

Edit:
These are my must watch shows, some good, some silly

Heros
Dr. Who
Torchwood
Flash Gordon
Project Runway
Any cooking contest show
The new Terminator series
Prison Break
CBS Monday night comedies (except the one with David Spade)
Pushing Daisies
Ugly Betty
Battlestar Galactica
Eureka
The 4400 - or used to anyway

Another edit: and The Wire. I'm cancelling HBO after this ends.
