They Say What They Say

Huh, I didn't know that John Pyper-Ferguson was in Brothers and Sisters. Maybe I'll have to start watching it now.

Meanwhile, I've written 2000 words of my 3000 word essay and did this stoopid procrastination meme.

You can go back in time and erase from the fabric of TV history THREE individual episodes of any TV show you want! The rest of the series will not be altered. What do you choose?

18th and Potomac - Because killing Mrs Landingham was mean!
Election Night - The whole 'Donna casts the wrong vote' plot was just stupid.
Election Day Part 1 - Even if we never see him onscreen again, at least Leo would still be alive.

You can go back in time and revive ONE unfairly cancelled television show and return it to the annals of TV history! CHOOSE WISELY, because if you attempt to revive more than one show, the wish will backfire and you'll instead be treated to a whole bunch of crappy made-for-TV "reunion" movies full of replacement actors.

Sports Night. It really had one more season left in it. I don't think it could have gone much further than that, but a third season would have given everyone the chance to tie things up nicely.

To balance out the historical TV viewing schedule, you now have the power to retroactively CANCEL, at any point during the series, any one show! Alternately, you can wield your destructive might and DELETE one whole entire series from ever having been made.

The X-Files should not have been allowed to drag on for as long as it did. Once David Duchovny decided to almost call it a day, it should have been put out of its misery.

LIFE AND DEATH! You can now bring ONE character back from the dead... and, to restore the balance, you must also kill off a character! They don't have to be from the same fandom.

I'd take Joyce Summers over Mandy Hampton any day.

Bonus trade-off: you can delete a single scene, relationship pairing, or plot arc that gave you hives from any series... AND you can plug in any one [scene, pairing, plot arc] that you never got to see!

I'd make the PTB of the West Wing work harder to keep Rob Lowe in the series. I really missed Sam and would have liked to see him dealing with Toby being the source of the space shuttle leak. Imagine the angst!
