Yes, I'm with "K" above me, I'm about ready to give up on TV entirely, and probably kill my set too.
See, I don't normally get into TV--my patience with the commercials and spam wears really thin really quickly--but a friend of mine got me into a show practically on the 2nd episode and I was a quiet fan of the thing since. I stuck with the show through thick and thin, bad plots and worse ones, Writer's Strikes and haters on the internet nitpicking on every little stuck with it for years and this is the thanks I get?? Some lame, rushed, 2-hour "finale" sometime next year maybe, and we have to go begging for _that_, WTF??
If I had the money to, I would be sorely tempted to break my TV set into bite-sized chunks, go out to California, hunt down Jay Leno and make him EAT the thing. >_< Just because his ego started the damned fool mess...
But yeah. This is the way it goes. TV execs are cold-blooded bastards these days--all they want is money. All they want is Garbage Reality TV on the air, and all they want are the blue-haired old ladies who still own Nielsen boxes (as outdated as they are). They couldn't care less about intelligent viewers who want intelligent programming. screw them, all of them and all of their replacement puppies. Just plain F=== them all in the ear.
