I really liked the premise.

I'm such a sucker for shit like this. I really wanted to see what the mythos about the creatures was going to be.

Victim of Lost fatigue and the writers strike I think.

another writers strike loss

Jericho was a cool premise. It was basically the Walking Dead without the zombies.

>>86388684
Kings
Marco Polo (second season admittedly wasnt great)
24 Legacy
Pitch (I know i know its feminist propaganda but the team dynamics were pretty interesting and it wasnt as hamfisted and cringey as the advertisements made it look)

>>86388902
this was legitmately the worst show i've ever seen in my whole life and you should kill yourself for wishing it went on longer

>>86388973
NBC had a lot of scripted shows start up before the writers strike, so a bunch got the ax.

>>86388980
dude I fucking loved that show
I was in jr high when it aired and I remember daydreaming a lot about having that power and reviving a qt girl i had a crush on who died in a drunk driving accident the summer before.
Lots of feels

How did Heroes end up ruining itself so quickly? How did nobody in the writer's room realize that time traveling powers would be a mistake?

The show doesn't deserve to return, but I don't see another superhero tv show of it's kind having the same potential for greatness in this current market

The return was even worse than the worst seasons of the original.

What was the name of that show about the alien signal that mutated people from the early 2000s?

Scrubs.

They changed writer rooms so often that I'm surprised it wasn't much worse.

Also pic related was kind of interesting, they could just never decide what direction they wanted to take the story.

It never stood a chance.

>young and handsome gay prince

was hoping for second seasons where protag and prince become friends ;_;

God I remember that show, literally the worst thing i've ever seen. It was a straight-up Batman rip-off with Oracle and everything and wasn't even subtle. But everything about it was fucking horrible.

The V remake with Morena Baccarin was sort of interesting, but the second season got really bad and I never finished it.

>It was a straight-up Batman rip-off
It wasn't even good enough to be that. The pilot was pretty weak but not worst I've seen and it was still saveable to some degree. As it went on it bored me too much continue. Didn't help that the guy who played the cape was so stiff. I'm not sure if they were going for something campy or serious but they failed on both fronts.

never met a single other person who's even heard of this, let alone seen and enjoyed

Moonbeam City

Why didn't they just make a good show with that artstyle instead of bootleg Archer?
