Traveler canceled

So, ABC canceled Traveler? I feel sad for its fans but I think it's good that I never started watching it than.

Is it evil from me to wish to see The Reaper suffer the same fate?

LOL! I think almost every SPN fan is hoping the reaper suffers the same fate...

I've been reading people's reaction to The Reaper here:

No spoilers, just the general description. Most people think it was okay, some are smitten, but there are people who think it was trash. The folks there don't believe that it'll last a whole season... I really really hope that they are right :D

I downloaded the pilot to see it with my own eyes - even though I would prefer if it didn't work, I still firmly believe that one shouldn't trash, what one didn't see. But according to the reviewers, this is a real teeny show - like for 13-year-old kids.

Ahh. I have no interest in seeing it. The previews don't even make it seem like something I want to catch a few minutes of. It just looks stupid. But I understand where you are coming from.

From what I've read, people like it for the comedy part, not for the supernatural part. I think the whole supernatural angle is not important for them. Which is pretty much obvious when they don't see how similar the premise is to The Collector and Brimstone.

I think that the CW kind of missed the targeted audience again. Instead of funny supernatural series they will have a parody/comedy - like they need another comedy series *rolls eyes*

After the stupid comment the main actor of Reaper did regarding SPN, I can totally see why. I'm one of those who want to see the show sink. :D

From what I hear, it is aimed at a much younger audience and they won't get that at 9pm at night. So here is to hoping it fails miserably!!

I guess they're presenting it on Sept 27 believing that they could get some of SPN audience to watch their show, too. But the fact is SPN has everything Reaper has to offer (supernatural, humor - a very more interesting and intelligent kind of, by the way) and more.
And the stupid Reaper actor said that his show was different from SPN because SPN took itself too seriously. WTH! He definitely never saw an episode. If you call Hollywod Babylon and many of Dean's remarks taking itself too seriously, I can only imagine what kind of dumb thing they're planning on doing with Reaper.

I hope that they moved the premiere of SPN to October 4th because of the other shows' premiere. I mean, it would get lost among CSI, GA, The Office...
