The TV Show Reaper…That’s Me.
As if I didn’t know this already, but this is the final confirmation.
I kill TV Shows.
No, seriously. If I like a show (unless it’s from another country apparently) the show gets canceled. Moonlight and New Amsterdam? Both dead.
These are only the latest in the line of casualties.
Tarzan, Firefly, Starman…the list goes on. True, sometimes shows inexplicably survive for a couple of seasons, but lately that has become less and less likely. And I’ll bet that you folks out there who love Heroes are suddenly glad that I don’t watch it.
That’s it. I’m on strike. I’ll just have to wait for Joss Whedon’s new show “Dollhouse” to come out on DVD for fear of jinxing it. Also? I’m thinking about going on the offensive.
You heard me. I’m thinking about looking for some annoyingly popular show and starting to watch it…just to see what happens. Would that be using my powers for good or evil?
I think you’re right to consider using your powers to affect shows you don’t actually like. The trick will be convincing whatever force controls these things that you DO truly like those shows.
Hopefully, that force does not read your blog or we may have just blown it.

Hmmm…you have a point there. But it’s certainly worth a try anyway.
