The End Of The Series For Journeyman !
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: TV Shows

 

Click here to see all of current listings! 

Above are Reed Diamond, Moon Bloodgood, Kevin McKidd and Gretchen Egolf who were the main characters on the Journeyman TV Show on NBC.

Series Creator Kevin Falls had promised that the last two episodes would "provide some answers, plenty of speculation, a few surprises and hopefully some satisfying closure. They are, I promise you, very entertaining". 

Monday (December 17th's episode) was exactly that! We taped the Wednesday night episode to see the last episode and blog about it here...

Time Travel TV Shows usually don't have time to include regular supporting cast members or 'sidekicks'such as 'Livia' (who was played by Moon Bloodgood) in each episode.

However Journeyman had almost an equal amount of 'air time' for time travel new characters as well as regular cast members. Yet it still didn't make the ratings charts NBC needed to satisfy advertisers!

The End Of The Series

For Journeyman

12-19-07 Episode

Journeyman was a New NBC Show that aired on Monday Nights at 10 PM, After 'Heroes'.

This past Wednesday night, December 19th 2007 was the airing of the LAST episode of this 13 episode TV Series!

Tina and I already blogged our thoughts about the Pilot Episode ...  click here to see !

This show was about time travel, which is a hard concept for the mainstream viewing public to become emotionally attached to.

Additionally, NBC's Monday Night lineup was Chuck, Heroes, then Journeyman.

As I have blogged about previously, none of these were a good lead in for the next show, which NBC finally figured out when they aired an episode of 'Life' instead of 'Journeyman' recently after 'Heroes'.

I personally enjoy time travel shows, with Quantum Leap being one of my favorite TV shows of all time.

However, the cast in these shows usually don't get much air time, so the viewership has less chance to get emotionally attached to the cast members.

We taped the last episode and were able to view it last night. I have not yet read any other bloggers' posts about the final episode, so the following is from my viewpoint only!

With such brief notice, the creator and producers of the show wrapped this series up in the final two shows rather nicely.  I will not reveal the ending to those that have not seen it yet... suffice to say it was not totally concluded, probably in case it were to be picked up by another network.

The Final Episode did give us answers, and left me on a 'high' for the series.

The conclusion was more fitting than Quantum Leap's ending which left everyone wondering... This Series ended nicely and in a much shorter time span of only 13 episodes!

Well done and I for one don't feel I wasted my time watching this series!

Thanks for reading this popular culture - comics - comic books blog post!

So Santa, you'll have to pay 'collector prices' to bring it to me!

Oh well... I'll stick to playing with the rest of my FF memorabilia, the two FF DVD Movies, the 44 Years of the FF Comics on DVD, and the other Fantastic Four 'toys' you got me in past years!!

Walt Simonson's

 Fantastic Four! 

Click Here for all of our currently listed Fantastic Four Comics!

Back in the early 1990's Marvel Comics was looking to increase its' circulation, so it, as well as its' Darling Competitors, started all kinds of promos!

The publishers printed millions of comics for speculators including foil covers, die-cut covers, multiple covers for one comic book story, etc. etc.

However there was one comic book title that didn't have those special printed 'collectors' items printed till a little later on.

The Fantastic Four's title was able to start 1990 with a great writer/artist  by the name of Walt Simonson who had helped The Mighty Thor's title starting with issue #337 of that series.

So it was only fitting that Walt started both covers and interior art Plus his writing with issue #337 of the FF!

I later saw Walt Simonson at the 2000 SDCC and had him sign a copy of that issue to me, as shown at top left photo!

Thanks for reading this popular culture - comics - comic books blog post!

Avengelyne At The 1997 LA Con!

 

Avengelyne was a comic book character that was co-created by Rob Liefeld and Cathy Christian.

Cathy wore the costume at Comic-Cons including the SDCC and the LA Sci-Fi And Comic Book Con that I saw her at with my older sons in 1997 as seen by the photo at the top left. 

The comic book character was first published in 1995 by Maximum Press. She had a 3 issue mini-series and a 14 issue regular series, plus other mini-series.

However, by the end of the speculative 1990's, Avengelyne Comics had a one-shot issue at Awesome Entertainment and the series had a short run at Avatar Press.

For those that never knew the character, Avengelyne was an angel who fought the forces of evil and often found herself face-to-face with demons, monsters, and other bad things on Earth! 

The original character design for Avengelyne was based on the likeness of former 'Vampirella' model Cathy Christian. She graced many covers of the Avengelyne comics as well as attending conventions!

Just click on the Avengelyne picture at the top left to see what issues we currently have in stock!
