They did a whole bunch of those stupid "mask" promos last year before we got a real one. I'm guessing that will show up next month.

Promos about the masks? That doesn't sound very interesting, glad I never watched them.

betterthanrevenge · 01-21-2015, 03:45 PM

Yeah I remember one specifically with Emma in it making masks or something. The promo is up on instagram if anyone cares but it only has Ryan and randoms getting killed.

Emma being in it makes it even worse. lol

I know it will never ever happen but I'd die if we got a Maxton promo.

If they cared about them at all I'd say we had a shot, but no. BTW, did you see that tweet MS responded to today? It's pretty obvious FOX really doesn't care about the show.

I know. Do you watch NBC's Chicago PD? They did so much Lindsay/Halstead promotion & actually lived up to the hype. It's something I'd want for M/M.

I'm looking at it now & I agree. Fox's new bosses talked about many shows but didn't say a word about TF

betterthanrevenge · 01-21-2015, 04:20 PM

I don't, is that the one with Sophia Bush? It's so dumb, they've seen what a couple on a show sort of like that can do (Bones & Booth), so you would think they'd want to try and recreate that on TF in a sense.

Yeah, I wasn't surprised they didn't. It's only excusable if they have specific promo things set up for TF closer to the premiere but i'm betting they don't. The good news is, SH's ratings are tanking.

collide into you · 01-21-2015, 04:36 PM

Yep, the one with SB. I don't know much about the Bones actors, but Sophia and Jesse did a photoshoot together & I was like, this is what S/J should do as well.

They even talked about resurrecting Prison Break, a show that ended with terrible ratings but didn't bother to mention a show that will soon start its 3rd season. How weird is that.

I'm interested to see if they renew SH.

It doesn't look like they take ratings into consideration all that much. The Following didn't get great ratings for S2 either and they lost a lot of viewers. That's the main reason I'm confused on why they're messing up the most popular pairing. It's like they're trying to lose their viewers.

betterthanrevenge · 01-21-2015, 04:58 PM

TF did well for FOX, it's all relative to each network. But yeah, they did lose viewers. The same thing is happening to SH now, but I think they're getting worse than TF did.

I'd love for SJ to do that, but without an actual pairing on the show I don't see it happening. So stupid.

They also talked about The X-Files? It seemed like a mess.

collide into you · 01-21-2015, 05:01 PM

Yep, with M/M not being officially together, there's no chance it'll happen.

Yes, an X-Files reboot

So many bad ideas, it's not even funny.

YoursToHold · 01-21-2015, 05:01 PM

Enough with the reboots!

collide into you · 01-21-2015, 05:05 PM

OT, but now I'm reading they also want to do a Luther remake. Someone lock them up & throw away the key.

I haven't watched the original but I have heard that too.

Translation: they're running out of ideas.
