I hope the Season 9 series finale will bring back Al Gough and Miles Millar to write the finale. I also hope it will be a 2-hour special like an actual movie. I hope it will leave an opening to a possible movie franchise should the Superman movie reboot in 2011 not pan out well. If season 9 ends up having just 2 writers I do not think it will make much difference. It might have a more consistent tone. I think it will be good given what I have seen in season 8, but hope they allow Lois and Clark to really fall in love, even though we know in the movies they do not (excluding Superman Returns). I would like to see that, even if they end up breaking up and just being friends.

@ Bruce

True.

I’m cautiously happy about the reunion.
Fact is, it will never be as cool as you imagine it beforehand.

I just hope they don’t smeg it up.

David? Don’t get greedy. LOL>

Let’s be happy about a “first step” and see where that takes it.

Me, I hate setting myself up for disappointment, so I temper my enthusiasm to quiet hope.

Am I really the first one to say it?
Ok:

FAN – SMEGGING – TASTIC.

The return of Red Dwarf … who’d have guessed?

Now bring back Black Adder, New Statesman, Strange, Jekyll, a third season of Spaced and a fifth season of Coupling.

Pronto!

Tonight’s episode of Smallville was god awful. Makes me really want this show to not go on another season. It was the MOST Lana-centric episode ever. I think I’ve just about given up on watching Smallville. Good Riddance.

@wes

You’d be surprised at how many U.S. shows (mainly sitcoms) have been based on British shows over the years.

It seems at least half of our “american” tv shows are based on british ones, especially the more popular ones. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was more. We can’t come up with much of anything over here anymore in recent memory.

I think that is … depressing? So yet one more remake then. Just peachy. When will someone not redo a show or british hit?

Sigh. Thanks Gary.

A bit of TV trivia:
This is the second Time
The Human Target has been on TV.
There were 7 episodes counting the pilot , that aired on ABC in 1992.
Christopher Chance was played by Rick Springfield.
NO JOKE!
Just thoughtI would mention that.
