*sigh* Tis true. Does anyone remember "John Doe"?

I so loved John Doe! Not to mention Now and Again. Brimstone wasn't too cliffhangy, but it still left a lot of plot unresolved. Sometimes I wish the creators of these shows could finish off the story in short story or novel format, but realistically I guess they have better things to do with their time.

"Shakespeare gotta eat, son."

I would think USA would give the producers, creators, etc an option to have a series finale in the future if a 6th season is refused.

NBC offered a deal to have a single final episode after it cancelled several shows in the past.

One show was that of The Pretender, but as I will explain, the creators may have got a little greedy in the end. Even after 5 years of it having no new content, there is still a fight and a chance for something new due to the success of it on DVD. It had two endings that left fans hanging. Once with NBC (they decided to try XFL Football in its place, which flopped) and then on TNT, who picked it up and ran two TV Movies to continue the story, but then they left it hanging as well as they did not offer the option for the final two movies to be made. The creatores overreached in how much time they had to finish it. There is still hope that it will be wrapped up after its 4 seasons and 2 TV movies, but it has been nearly 5 years on it.

I just hope that if given the option, the DZ will not have that same fate. I would rather just have an ep or a 2 hour "mini movie" to wrap it up rather than hopeful empty promises that just leave us hanging again.

Okay, the 4th season renewal was announced Sept. 14, 2004. So we should know something with-in the next couple of weeks, right?

Also, in Mr. Pillar's blog, he says, "I don't want to give anything away,..." That sounds to me like he is pretty confident that there will be a Season 6. Isn't that how you guys take that? I almost feel like he is reading this stuff, shaking his head, thinking, "You guys said to give you a crumb, so I did, and you still won't be happy until we come out and say,'We'll see you in June of 2007.'" Which I guess, really, is true. We probably won't be satisfied until that announcement is made.

I guess one thing I don't understand is why all the other shows were announced a week or more ago, and it may be another two weeks or more yet before we hear anything. Life just isn't fair.

Actually the fourth season renewal was released September 9 ... well that's what it says in the press release. If there is season six, something has to said by the end of September. Because they need to get started on preparing for the season as soon as possible.

Was this an answer or a prelude? Don't be too quick to write off Johnny yet! Maybe it's a chance for something much more to come in. In every darkness is a light you just mave to strike the match. Johnny's not beaten yet.
I point again to the Geode Lesson for those who don't know it. Patience was the key to finding where the truest power lies. The same message was sent in Heroes and Demons in the boy Thadeus. He found the power within himself when all hope was gone to save his father. Cancelation now is not an option! They have locked us in for the long haul. With plenty of time to send in Ideas and Script suggestions. We can save this show!
