So I was looking over the list of what's returning and what's not next season on ABC, and even though I already knew this season is the last for Alias, I still felt like I'd been kicked in the gut when I didn't see it on the schedule before "Lost." *sigh* http://www.thefutoncritic.com/pr.aspx?id=20060516abc01

However, I do take some consolation in the fact that several people from the cast including Ron Rifkin have already gotten jobs on other series'. In fact, Ron and Balthazar Getty (Thomas) are going to be in a show together called 'Brothers and Sisters' which also stars Calista Flockart and is produced/directed by Ken Olin from Alias and Marti Noxon from Buffy. So...sounds like it'll be decent.

Rob Bowman and Jeff Bell, some of the head guys from The X-Files are doing a new show too, called "Day Break." Which I'd probably watch except it sounds way too much like a rip-off of Tru Calling. Will wait and see previews before making up my mind on this one.

"Six Degrees" also sounds good and even if it didn't, all I need to know is that JJ Abrams is the executive producer. So there, people. So very there.

"Traveler" is brought to us by David Nutter (producer of the X-Files, Supernatural), and starring Matthew Bomer (Luc from Tru Calling), this one sounds good too.

Now if only we knew what CW was for sure picking up. *waits anxiously*

Addendum: Apparently NBC canceled 'Surface.' Fuckers. I officially watch nothing on NBC anymore. Nem, you will be missed. *sniff*

*sigh* I'm down to ABC, FX, and Discovery with an occasional foray onto WB (for SV0...CBS I still do not watch and NBC...*shrugs* If I catch any of the L&O it's good...sometimes Medium...I'm going to miss Alias, though not as much as I miss Joan (still)...

What is/was October Road?

It was a pilot that was trying to make the ABC 2006/2007 line up about a screenwriter and his life (Bryan Greenberg playing the screenwriter.) I love him, and it sounded interesting, so I had hope...

Here's to hoping The CW will pick up Split Desicion (my other pilot of choice.) They got Veronica Mars a season three at least..

I thought Surface died right after Threshold did. WHY is the crappy Invasion the survivor? Threshold should have been the winenr hands down.

*gripes about stupid double digit IQ-ed people who run the world*

I'm glad Threshold DIED. Pardon me for being mean...I just get a great deal of pleasure when anything on CBS ends up dying. Though I do agree with you about the stupid people running the world...Scary statistic? The dear President Dubya has an IQ of 91...And this is the man that was elected into office *twice* and is considered 'the most powerful man in the world'...If that's not scary, I don't know what is...

According to Futon Critic, Invasion was canceled as well.

No big loss. Invasion was too dramaish and too little scifi in my opinion. Tried to please all and ended up driving away everyone. Lost is the the only one that seems to balance the weird, and actually is starting to falter but al teast it keeps me in with the extras like the web mystery this summer.
