Do you know if Eureka will be back on SciFi?

What about Jerico and Jeremiah? I just finished watching the recorded episodes of the original episodes of Jeremiah that aired a couple weeks ago and the more I watched the more I enjoyed them.

These series should be required to have final episodes waiting in the wings in case they are cancelled instead of leaving their faithful followers hanging.........

“Scifi has no brains at all..”

They make stupid decisions all the time.

I watched 1st season of LOST, but without taping, so I missed a few episodes, fell behind, and when the second season started, I did not bother. Reading/hearing reviews from people I respect, I decided to catch up. SciFi provided a perfect opportunity with Monday marathons of 4 episodes per Monday starting in September 2008. With DVR, its very easy to watch it later when convenient.

So, SciFi did something right, showing 4 seasons ahead of the 5th season start in January? Not so fast! Somebody miscalculated (and I understand ABC did not make it any easier with announcement of exact date of the 5th season start) - so it looked like they won’t finish before the due date. Instead of adding more episodes on Mondays, or make any other amends, they just jumped forward leaving 7 or 10 episodes not shown. Anybody who watched LOST knows that there are clues sprinkled everywhere. You miss an episode, and then puzzle is not coming together properly.

Thankfully ABC provided complete seasons 3 and 4 online, so I ended up switching from a TV to a computer. I imagine people who did not get news of this (I read about it here or some other forum, don’t remember, but definitely not on SciFi) were lost in what the he*l happened.
