Hey, remember Buffy's mom? She had that brain tumor and she got really sick. But then she turned a corner and she got better, stronger, healthier every week. And then she dropped dead and it felt like the floor fell out from under your feet. That's what happened to Jake in Progress this week. Every day, it seemed more and more likely that we were going to film the entire order, to shoot all 13 episodes. We showed up for work on Thursday, expecting to actually spend a late night re-writing episode ten. Then, not so much. Jake was gone.
Hopefully she picks up something for next year or her own sitcom idea gets picked up.

Nice site, btw. I hope she keeps it going. I enjoyed reading her thoughts and bookmarked it for the future.

Soon they'll be cancelling shows before they even make them! Oh, wait, that's what making pilots is all about.

Actually, there are a few shows that have been canceled during their first airing; Turn-On is an example. It premiered in 1969, went to commercial, and never came back.
Eventually we'll find someone that'll treat our Jane right.

She also has an entry on January 19 that's a nice conclusion to the fat/racist jokes and what makes comedy funny debate we had here a couple of weeks ao.

I never saw the show but my parents loved it. Last season wh en they did the four episodes in a row or something or other they couldn't get enough of it.
