Comments on: Kings cancelled? http://www.friskygeek.com/2009/04/12/kings-cancelled/ memoirs of a hippie Mon, 21 May 2012 18:14:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.1 by: replier http://www.friskygeek.com/2009/04/12/kings-cancelled/#comment-66093 Tue, 15 Jun 2010 22:24:01 +0000 http://www.friskygeek.com/2009/04/12/kings-cancelled/#comment-66093 It's not that the show didn't have enough viewer, it's that the producers or whoever did not really advertise the show as much. If they did I can honestly guarantee more viewers and a higher rating. As everyone else said, if NBC only kept the episodes consistent then there would be more viewers. I think they canceled it because they themselves did not like it, and did not think of the fans. I really did like that show and hope that some other network will take it up and continue it.

Apparently to these sources well within NBC, the groups which are also share holders don't like the idea of a vengeful god. So much for freedom, I guess. We're only allowed to watch things that depict god in a pleasant way... Just like the Iranian's are not allowed to watch things that depict Islam in a bad way.

Its amazing that an excellently scripted and strongly cast drama is being obliterated by NBC. What is wrong with America when the public will watch trash like America's got talent and American idol instead of an excellent well-thought out show WITH AN ACTUAL PLOT! I guess Americans are becoming idiots. PLEASE SOMEONE SAVE THIS SHOW. IT WILL BE WORTH YOUR WHILE! Wow. Its amazing that an excellently scripted and strongly cast drama is being obliterated by NBC.

They are fools. Also don't watch it on HULU. I will NOT give NBC ANYMORE ad revenue, or revenue of any matter. (NBC owns HULU for those who don't know) If NBC, by some miracles, puts out anything worth watching that they actually keep around (ie: Chuck) then I will be watching it streaming from one of the hundreds of other perfectly legal to stream from (albeit illegal themselves) websites where they won't make me watch ads and won't give NBC any further income. I also blocked the channel from my TV. I'm sticking to Showtime or HBO as they seem to be the only channels left with any sense. Fuck NBC.

I personally, along with all of my friends and family, watch it on Hulu as soon as it premieres on the web, usually more than once. If they took that into account, all of that ad revenue they're getting from a family each watching it individually, instead of all on the same television, they'd quickly realize Kings is a very nice little treasure trove as a web-release. That way, Kings still has new episodes, NBC doesn't have to sacrifice a precious time-slot, and we all get to see just what this can become. Because we're such smart viewers who utilize technology to it's fullest, our sophistication is working against us, NBC turning a blind eye to what matters and clucking angrily about how it's 'too smart' for their viewers.
