The identity of the killer was to be revealed at the end of the series. Only there wasn't a series. It didn't even make it to the end of the first season, and they NEVER answered who the killer was. Grr...<BR/><BR/>At least we don't have to worry about that happening in books.

The last season ended with the conflict unresolved and about to come to a head, and then they cancelled the series, so now we'll never know what was going to happen. And then there's The Sopranos, which is working it's way down to the series finale and just getting more and more depressing. I'm starting to wonder if they're just going to kill everyone off. I refuse to start watching any other HBO series, and as soon as the series finale of The Sopranos airs, I'm cancelling my subscription to HBO!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-63547665774488100782007-05-23T14:38:00.000-04:002007-05-23T14:38:00.000-04:00LOST lost me somewhere between the end of last yea...LOST lost me somewhere between the end of last year when the hatch imploded and early this season with all the stuff about the "others." Or maybe it's because they pushed it back to 10:00 which is past my bedtime. <BR/><BR/>I did get addicted to JERICHO this year, which is similar to LOST in that a group of people become isolated from the rest of the world and must battle unknown enemies to survive. But it looks like JERICHO has been cancelled. <BR/><BR/>That's what annoys me the most with the "To Be Continued" cliffhanger at the end of the season. Often there is no next year and I never find out what happens next. <BR/><BR/>Yeah, bring on Sonny Crockett! Or MacGyver.

Every episode ends with a cliffhanger, and the season finale is usually a culmination of the entire season. <BR/><BR/>As in fiction novels, a good cliffhanger leaves me wanting more. Not just in action but also in emotional impact. If there's an emotional attachment that is left hanging at the end of an episode, I'll definitely tune in to watch what happens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-53117609495661358992007-05-23T10:15:00.000-04:002007-05-23T10:15:00.000-04:00Joyce has good points about Miami Vice.

It's not any more realistic than today's shows, but where else can you see a car phone as big as a shoe box and all those eighties fashions? And Crockett. He's still hot.Joyce Tremelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00498392016497131719noreply@blogger.com
