This season saw Vanished, Kidnapped, Daybreak and Drive cancelled halfway through the season. all having cliffhanger plots and all shows I had faithfully watched. The first three were eventually shown on the internet so I did get to at least see the result of the plotlines (Kidnapped and Daybreak were quite good; actually better than about 90% of the crap on TV); Drive was never even extended past the first five episodes they did shoot; it was cancelled after three shows. This is one of the reasons I never watched Jericho; I was afraid of getting into yet another serial drama that wouldn't see the end of the season. I'm glad the fans could get something going there, but the past has shown that campaigns like this rarely extend the show past one season (or in this case, a few episodes). BTW, the next season is already being looked forward to as one of the worst ever for TV viewers....based on the shows greenlighted for the fall, most critics are saying it's all limp, unexciting, unambitious crap that has no future. What a sorry state of affairs for TV land.Mike B.

I went to the first Dallas show last night and it was well worth the twenty-three year wait. They didnt play any of Sting's solo stuff and it was just the three of them which is exactly what I was hoping for.If anything Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland are better musicians now that they were back in the 80's. And Sting...well Sting is the same as he ever was.Three encores...pretty damn awesome.
