ABC pulls "Big Shots"
http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/12/11/abc-pulls-big-shots/
It says "effective immediately", does that mean no CC this Thursday!?!? Oh, I'm so mad -AssassinRo |

Matt Webb Mitovich, one of CC's biggest boosters, is not pleased:
TV Guide: Big Shots Neutered in Favor of Warmed-Over Privates ETA: Meanwhile, however, ABC is still running a teaser video of Charisma's appearance. Get it while you can.

What. The. Hell.
Should we start emailing them? Calling? Maybe if enough people say HEY! we'd rather watch this AND the commercials instead of reruns, they might put it back on? (Even if there are only 13 of us). With so many networks struggling, a little bit of force might be enough. ETA: Looks like around the net a couple of boards and forums to Big Shots are doing a call in campaign. If anyone is interested. Comment line: 1-818-460-7477 Press 2 then 3 for the primetime menu. Then 244 is for Big Shots.

This really frustrates me. Ugh! Just when Charisma was coming! Couldn't they have waited? Geesh!
Well, at least she has some things coming up in 2008. But, I still would have liked to see her episode(s)

Don't be surprised if ABC burns these off as online viewing or downloads. In fact, since nonpayment of writers for Internet usage is one of the WGA's central strike issues, the network may have seen an opportunity for a final in-your-face to the union in a show they probably were going to cancel anyway.

Oh, for crap sake.
ETA: According to the Futon Critic http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=7517 All 13 episodes have been filmed, and there are 5 yet to be broadcast. At least CC will be paid for her work, however many episodes she is in.

It doesn't say "cancelled" just pulled. They could be saving them for February sweeps like they're saving "Bones" last few new episodes for next year. In any case, I'm really pissed we're not seeing CC this week. I've sat through this show all season so far to get to this point and now I get nothing for it. Bummer.

Some of us have been dying -- dying, I tell you! -- to see CC and Titus together. And she got all the funny lines, too.

Well, then, let's hope this writer's strike last, eh?
Four months down the line and the networks are desperate for new programming, they'll perhaps start showing the missing episodes of all the TV series they've cancelled/pulled over the years. I suspect we may see a few revivals if the strike does go on. |
