Today (May 18th 2024) marks 15 years since FOX officially canceled 'Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles' and ignited one of the most talked-about (and enduring) fan-campaigns of all-time.

"The machinations of save-our-show fan campaigns are always changing, but the passion fans have for the shows they love most, that never dies".
Seven years after it was canceled, Veronica Mars returned to the screen in 2014 - the Big Screen. Funded to tune of $5.7M by fans via one of the most-backed Kickstarter campaigns ever up until that point in time.
• Is Kickstarter still a viable platform to resurrect genre TV shows?
• Was there something extra special about Veronica Mars and the connection the show had with fans, that made this a truly unique situation? Still, I don’t know.

This is just a short episode to let you all know that Campaigning isn't dead. It's not something of the past. And Adrianne Palicki (who portrayed Agent Bobbi Morse on Marvel's Agents of SHIELD) agrees.
"I would love so much to play Mockingbird again. Bobbi Morse. Trust me, I vibe for that. I want to do it. So you guys out there, you better campaign for it, because I love that girl and I would love so much to carry those Escrima Sticks again and kick some a**."
~ Adrianne Palicki (June 2022).

Today we're joined by Legends of SHIELD co-host and producer Stargate 'SP' Pioneer. The guys discuss Dark Matter's cancellation, Syfy (the channel), and sci-fi (the TV genre).
Quote. When the Syfy Channel cancelled its pulpy space-opera show, Dark Matter, the show’s creator, Joseph Mallozzi, immediately began working on a way to save it. Recently, on his blog, he revealed that MGM showed some interest in picking up Dark Matter — and crossing it over with another well-known science fiction television franchise, Stargate. End Quote
