Title: No Fate!
Description: Supoort T:SCC!
Serenity - February 15, 2009 04:20 AM (GMT)
Well sadly the TV rating for T:SCC on it's premiere night were below what was expected. The expected view count was at least 5 million, it was only 3.71 approx.
From what i have gathered the fact they started advertising so late a lot of viewers were unaware of the time change from Mon night to Firday night. Also the advertisements were misleading and fans wanted to see more of Cameron, and as we know EP 14 had very little of her.
LASTLY and MOST importantly FOX is only determining the popularity of the series by the tv ratings, not everyone was able to see the show right then and there so that makes the rating even less true than how many actual fans there are of T:SCC.
If you wanna let fox know how you feel and send them a respectful letter about how you are thankful T:SCC is back you can email them here: askfox@fox.com
If you don't know what to write, read this first:

And yes i already sent an email, I DON"T want this show to die like Firefly . . . .good shows should never have a bad fate . . . .

Fox doesn't care sadly, They did this with Arrested Development, the ratins were very low, because of the time slot, and after verious pettions to add a fourth season, they canned it. The DVD Sales are high for shows that Fox cancels though, but they don't care about the poor ol' fanbase.
Hope T:SCC doesn't get canned by Fox, If so I'll never watch a Fox TV other than my local news on Fox.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:04 AM (GMT)
I really like T:SCC and i will be upset if they cancel it . . .my quarter of College has been frustrating and something fun being in threat of being canned just makes it worse . . . I can't believe this is is even happening . . .

I thought it was a pretty popular show actually, and from what I got an impression of, it has alot of potential, I think one thing htat hurts the show is htat there isn't Arnold, and I know it affected my view of the show, maybe its affecting others.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:12 AM (GMT)
not really . . . everyone on the official T:SCC forum (the hardcore fans) are upset about the way FOX is advertising T:SCC. They show a lot of Cameron in action and then come to find out she's almost not even viewed in EP 14 . . . .
gokyle45 - February 15, 2009 05:17 AM (GMT)
I see the commercials and I see her alot, but when I saw part of the episode I didn't even see her. Shame, that FOX is stupid and can't even market right.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:19 AM (GMT)
They make Summer out to be some hottie sex object too, I hate that :angry:
gokyle45 - February 15, 2009 05:21 AM (GMT)
:rolleyes: , Typical marketing
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:24 AM (GMT)
Well they didn't used to advertise Cameron this way . . .it's like the new thing they want to do to ruin it some more . . .
gokyle45 - February 15, 2009 05:27 AM (GMT)
Sigh, I never understand why they ruin the best shows and make them like the rest of the shows on TV, ruined Daria that way.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:28 AM (GMT)
I don't know either, it's like they flip a switch and say "Let's make this crappy now! It's too good so let's ruin it!"
gokyle45 - February 15, 2009 05:30 AM (GMT)
Yeah, thats what hurts the best shows, is they try to attract a new addiance by doing something new, and it works to get those few new fans, but it takes away those diehard fans, who've watched since it started.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:41 AM (GMT)
yeah things are just not good :(
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 05:46 AM (GMT)
Yeah things didn't seem good on Friday. Watching it gave me that oh no feeling....I felt like if I had been telling people to watch the show and this was the first episode they saw, they were gonna be pretty disappointed.

I felt the same way . . . it's not the T:SCC we've been talking about he last few weeks and discussing . . I think that episode had the least Cameron ever . . .
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 05:49 AM (GMT)
Yeah the main thing she did was tell Riley she was worried about her and that's it.... <_<
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:51 AM (GMT)
yeah next week better show more Cameron, and if not then the next better be more Cameron or I give up lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 05:51 AM (GMT)
LOL ...nOOO don't say that!! LOL
Serenity - February 15, 2009 05:53 AM (GMT)
I won't really give up, i just won't bother being concerned if she is in an episode or not anymore since the writers feel she doesn't need anymore air time lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 05:57 AM (GMT)
That would be crazy for them to think that. She's actually the reason I got into it. You know what...I think this show needs AHHNOOOLDDD!!
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:01 AM (GMT)
they just need to re-watch the episodes they made in the beginning and remember what the heck they are doing lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:03 AM (GMT)
Yeah they do. Either that or have Cameron fight a lot of Terminators.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:04 AM (GMT)
I want to see more john and Cameron interaction and see the story about the terminator continue and how skynet will become . . .it's like they forgot about it lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:08 AM (GMT)
Yes it seems like they wanna leave you hanging. I'm not to sure about this whole John Henry thing either. Where'd they did this up? I guess that could be the start of Skynet. I don't know. He seems more advanced than Cyberdine Systems Model 101 which was the first Terminator.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:09 AM (GMT)
I actually like the John Henry thing, it's scary but the main character almost don't seem main anymore .. . I mean yeah they had Sarah but John and cam were like AFK lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:11 AM (GMT)
Yes and I don't care for the Riley story. I wanna see more Cameron. I wanna see more like season 1 was.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:13 AM (GMT)
I was actually hoping Riley died in Episode 13 lol . .and darn she was alive when Ep 14 came on . .she sucks at suicide laugh2
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:15 AM (GMT)
She's probably a Terminator and can not self terminate.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:16 AM (GMT)
no she's real by all that blood lol
she just doesn't know how to kill herself I guess . . . I mean it really looked like she died in Ep 13 and i could not believe she was alive in 14 lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:17 AM (GMT)
They wasted a whole episode on shenanigans.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:19 AM (GMT)
Basically . . . .I mean rally did they really need John and cam to sit in a hospital for an ENTIRE episode . . . it was like they were stalled
Even the doctor lady did more acting this episode lol
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:22 AM (GMT)
Yep, and her I didn't understand. What the heck was up with that character.
Serenity - February 15, 2009 06:24 AM (GMT)
The doctor was cool but the fact i was expecting to see more Cameron kept me distracted . .they really advertised that episode really wrong . . .
ralphalf - February 15, 2009 06:25 AM (GMT)
People probably thought that doctor was Cameron.

Its worse advertising than Peppermill saying:
"Just Like Vegas, Only Closer" about Wendover in Salt Lake City comparing

To

ralphalf - February 16, 2009 07:36 AM (GMT)

If they do that I as a fan would be outraged by their little concern and disrespect to the people who are keeping alive T:SCC i the first place :angry:
