Because a lot of people don't think Lost is a load of shit, myself included. Using two Bryan Fuller-related examples (I know he has nothing to do with Lost): Pushing Daisies was fantastic and I'm furious that it was cancelled, but I don't go wishing for the once-great, now-shit Heroes to be cancelled. Why not? Because a lot of people still like it, and they deserve to get to see where it goes, even if goes nowhere.
I really don't understand the mentality behind wishing for a show to fail just because it's not up to your quality standards, especially when you treat its fans like idiots just because they enjoy the show.
Pushing Daisies wasn't good. It was painful shite. Such a disappointment after the high quality of Fuller's two previous shows.
If all the money and time that's being put into Lost wasn't being spent on Lost then maybe something of quality might be made in its place and then maybe the Lost fans might get more out of that.
If you care about art, it's perfectly reasonable to wish the money and time and resources were going into making quality stuff rather than crap. And if you feel that way you're going to wish the bad shows would get cancelled and replaced with good shows. Not that I expect the bad shows to all get cancelled and replaced with good stuff, but every one that is is a door open for a chance at making a quality show.
Nor is it unreasonable to wish a show would get cancelled after it's pissed you right off and driven you up the wall. As I've stated elsewhere, I'm not one of these people who believe in not feeling.
You're basically trying to tell me I can't say something is bad because it would be treating its fans as idiots. I reject that argument as bullshit. You're also trying to cast me as terribly inconsiderate because I want something cancelled that other people like. I reject your view there too. You're trying to pull moral bullshit on me because you can't find a better argument. Forget it. I'm not going to suddenly go saying "Oh, ChainsawAsh, I'm a terrible inconsiderate person. You were right. I'm going to change my ways." I'm pretty damn confident in the rightness of my way of way of thinking. I wish Lost would get cancelled. I'm glad Pushing Daisies got cancelled (now maybe Bryan Fuller will do something good instead). If you want to wish Heroes were cancelled that's your business. Feel free to. I certainly won't tell you you can't do that and that it would be EVIL to, or whatever you're trying to imply about me wishing Lost were cancelled.
Look, you don't like my view. And there's no way you're going to like it. You like Lost, whereas I want it cancelled. How about you just accept that I have my view? Because you're not going to change it and I'm tired of fighting with people. You were helpful on my thread about the Temple of Doom and I'm grateful for that. So let's not fight.
