Maybe they can show the actors using those "advanced virtual reality modules" to see if they can find a FOX tv show to watch that doesn't SUCK, or get canceled after 3 shows, or shown out of order, then switch nights a couple times (but don't tell anybody, so they can find it!) and then canceled, all the while the "network executives" complain that "nobody ever watches it", an that's why we canceled it!

Of course he should still be on NEW AMSTERDAM, not a new show...

But it sounds like it is worth giving a try. At least Sarah is coming back.

Fox is the network I watch least in prime time... Everytime they have a show that looks interesting they cancel it. Unfortunately they seem to be infecting the other networks too, and they are getting cancel happy. I suppose I will start watching this series and just hope that it lasts...

12 minute promo spot for Ron Moore's VIRTUALITY

Note: a 12 minute promo is at this site...

Virtuality airs on Fox on June 26 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. That, we knew already. What we didn't know is that Fox is now billing the program as "an original science-fiction thriller movie" and not the pilot of a possible series.

I couldn't make it through the promo. Makes sense Fox is not committing. Looks like a case of too many cooks in the kitchen.

Look at the date on when I posted that.


And Chuck wasn't cancelled, just pushed back to the spring for a half-year run.

The intriguing 'Virtuality' doesn't deserve to be lost in space

From Maureen Ryan's Blog

"Virtuality" (7 p.m. Central Friday, Fox; three and a half stars) does what a television pilot is supposed to do: It piques the viewer’s interest in what will happen next.
But there’s a caveat that goes along with that recommendation. The two-hour pilot for “Virtuality,” an adventurous and savvy story about 12 travelers on a commercial space mission, is probably all we’re going to get. Fox is airing the pilot but has not ordered a “Virtuality” series.

Well I watched it. What a steaming pile! After the first hour I wished the creatures from Alien would show up and wipe out the entire stereotyped crew!. :down
