Maybe something about that for the title? And urgh 13 episodes would be fine by me, but 6 really? :look: I hope it's at least 12/13 episodes or else what's the point really |
I was going to post the same news. Deadline article is HERE.
I'm happy for more episodes as a closure, but 6 episodes are few to close all the plots, here, imho. This season for example started to grow around that episode...12 episodes are better. Anyway the most important thing is to have a proper ending. 6 episodes are the minimum, but better than nothing. Let's hope Craig gets more episodes - One Tree Hill for its last ninth season got 13 episodes. Anyway the article you linked has an update Quote:

The original series of Nikita only had 8 episodes for their final fifth season actually. But yeah 12 episodes would be my preference definitely
Honestly I'm surprised that they wouldn't give Nikita a full season though, what else are they going to put on Friday nights? |
I want a ALEX spin off!!!!!!!

I noticed that a lot of CW shows at their last season have 13 episodes. Also GG had 13 ones. Quote:
In my opinion: SHORTENED LAST SEASON PROS - we'd be sure to have a proper ending - no more worries about the ratings CONS - it will be the last, so no more show after it - it wouldn't reach the syndication so no one could buy it (they couldn't do it anyway because it will be the last season) FULL FOURTH SEASON (not last) PROS - another year of the show with a lot of episodes - the chance to reach the syndication and maybe to see it in another channel CONS - be again on the bubble for another season - worry about the ratings - risk to being canceled if the CW can't stand anymore the low ratings (although it kept renewing also GG and 90210 even if they were bad) |
I think they may as well have a full 4th season if it's going to be the last anyway, but who knows what they will do :shrug: Like I said I'm cool with them bringing it back for just 12 or 13 episodes as that gives the writers the chance to write a really tight and awesome final arc for the show, but 6 episodes is barely worth it
ETA Maybe the title could be "Because we want a fourth season of Nikita"? Not very imaginative I know, but better than nothing, right :lol: |
6 episodes is a no-no for me. That's like a joke for Nikita fans, crew, and writers!

To me, if they give it a full season they MUST not cancel it before the syndication limit, even if it have low ratings. A full renew, in fact, would have sense only because of the syndication limit to reach. And I think The CW knows that: it's a risk: renew for a full one, but hope it won't go lower... |
Do they need 23 episode 4th season for syndication or less?
|
This is ridiculous.
I am totally welcome 4th season, but what's this treatment? And, they don't want to make money? That's really ridiculous. I mean after all the hard work and good chance to make money, and they want to back it up by shortening the season? Some people said for syndication, it doesn't have to be 88 episodes, but with quality and story flow, I think there should be full season. I haven't come to board these days, because I am somewhat peeved with this "Amanda" show... this definitely feds up a fan like me that it's just painful to watch all the destruction instead of avenging baddies. La Femme Nikita had a short last season. IMO, that was total disaster. They killed almost all main characters, and stories... gosh... cannot remember any of them except Michael came back after M.I.A.. and that was for "good bye", again. That was painful to watch short-hurried-god knows what's the story for great series. Let me tell you that my memory just end with Season 4 for this series, not season 5. |
The problem with LFN was that they originally thought season 4 was the end and killed off several characters in a big finale, then they got offered an 8 episode final season and had to scramble a bit to get the characters all back in the same place. Hopefully Nikita will be able to plan it out better if they are given advance notice of a final season :lol:
