.. proving that no one producing television or films has ANY creativity left….. just remake, revive, or rehash what’s been done already.

OMG!! I’m halfway thru Season 4 on Netflix and getting the Movie from them as well.

Jane says
Great news. Not to spoil the ending of the original series but……how are same people coming back for the next season? I was obsessed with that show and watched all the seasons over and over again when it showed on TV. Can’t wait for it to come back on!!!

Jane, Daniel – apparently the writers have a loophole for that:

Great news it was another show that finished too early let’s hope it’s writers do it justice
Donk says
I loved the series but like most good tv shows the writers fcuk it up at the end e.g. LOST. I’m in two minds about this being done, I’m curious as to how they bring back Michael will they pretend “The Final Break” never took place and if that’s the case are they still on the run?? And then I’m thinking just leave it alone before you do more damage you can’t undo
