Cheap Trick never recorded a lame-ass power ballad called “The Flame”.
There never was a 1930’s style death ray…
Duane Allman never bought a motorcycle.
Stevie Ray Vaughn never got on the helicopter.
Buddy Holly never got on the plane.
Weirdly enough, my copy of Mostly Harmless only has 2 pages. $8.00 for 2 pages? What can I say, I am a DA fan.
Ann Rice stopped her Vampire novels after Queen of the Damned…wonder why she stopped?
I will always wonder whatever happened to Zoe Bartlett. It’s too bad that “The West Wing” got canceled when it did.
Buffy didn’t die in The Gift? I watched the WB the next year and no Buffy so I thought it was over.
Just kidding- but your post rings so true. While UPN Buffy was, on average, subpar, there were a few really good episodes.
Now the Star Wars prequels and endless released versions of the classics is simply a bad dream.
Oh, and there were not any movies in the series after Aliens.
X-files went off the air when David D. left to do movies (badly).
No Babylon 5- season five or ultra cheesy spin-off follow up series attempts. None.
While there was Star Trek: DS 9, the best trek series ever, the was no Enterprise. Honest.
There was only one season of Dark Angel, and the season finale was preempted so we never got to see it.
I’ve heard that MAS*H went downhill and Alan Alda started getting all preachy and writing episodes that weren’t funny.
Why haven’t I seen these episodes? Why, they were just a nasty rumor.
The series finale of Star Trek: Voyager ended with the Borg capturing Voyager, and Janeway ordering a self-destruction to keep everyone from being assimilated. Thus, Trekkies everywhere can rest easy knowing that Janeway, Chakotay, and everyone else from that show will never appear in any future Trek movie or series.
AI was an excellant finale to Kubrick’s long Career, without no other directors invovled and certianly no sappy ending. Poor kid, looking at a statue for all eternity.
2001 was such a great movie, too bad they never made a sequel.
This is another remote one, but the rather crappy 80s science fiction series “V” only lasted about a dozen episodes or so. When Ham Tyler (Michael Ironside) and Robin left the show, it folded quietly.
The insane level of difficulty is part of it, but the poison mushrooms and random wind currents when you’re trying to make certain jumps push it over the edge. When the only innovations you bring to a game sequel completely suck, that makes it worthless in my book. And they didn’t even bother updating the graphics, so it doesn’t amount to much more than a glorified expansion pack.
I speak in hypothetical, of course, since it doesn’t exist and all.
And the Super Mario Bros. 2 we got in the US is a good game. I wouldn’t call it a Mario game, honestly, but I thought it was a decent enough stopgap until SMB3 came out.
No sequel to Rendevous With Rama exists, I repeat Clarke wrote a fine SF novel and left it at that.
Tom Bombadil was never a part of “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy.
And of course, there was no such alien as Jar Jar Binks.
“The Star Wars Christmas Special.”
Actually, George Lucas is CLAIMING that that one doesn’t really exist.
And who could blame him? Imagine a version of Star Wars so bad it scares GEORGE LUCAS…
Arthur C. Clarke never wrote any novels with Gentry Lee.
And there aren’t any sequels to 2001 either. If there are, it’s only one and certainly not three.
It was kinda sad when Cheers folded after Diane left, but I understood.
