For Fuck's Sake...

They cancelled the next series of Robin Hood.

Apparently showing the season finale on the wrong channel with no prior warning meant it got less ratings than normal and, thus, perfect excuse to screw it over. Thus Robin Hood has gone the way of Primeval, and Torchwood seems to be going the same way (as Children of Earth rids us off everyone bar Jack), and even Doctor Who is drained to the dregs for the next financial year.

So, yeah. I'm depressed. It's NINE BELOW ZERO!

*wait patiently for a band to magically appear in my living room and play a song*

*sod all happens*

Fuck.

Okay, now I'm pissed.

Heh.

But no. It's true.

Majorly pissed off as they had worked out a plot for the fourth series, Much-centric (FULL FIST!) and filmed in Scotland rather than Hungary so it'd be cheaper.

But the bosses refused to believe anyone would tune in if Robin was dead and cancelled it.

As Cam noticed, it's as logical as what they did back in 1985...

I didn't know about that!

I would have watched it.

So the series four pitch is based around a cheaper actor in the lead, and cheaper location costs (and cheaper post-production costs) and they still axe it.

In a word?

Yes.
