Are You Happy (Town) Now?

Wow. Though I had one person tell me via Twitter that Happy Town has a HUGE following, as expected, it was canceled. The last two episodes can be seen online only, and I have seen them. Wow. Um. Yeah. The risks in following new shows are A) The constant fear of cancellation when you love them (Legend of the Seeker), B) The realization that the show is terrible (The Gates), C) That a show won’t be able to find it’s way in time (Happy Town).

I’m not going to do any background checking to see if the last episode was re-edited as the finale, but I can only imagine that it was. We got most of the answers to the big questions (Who is the Magic Man? What’s the deal with Dan?), but the details that could have been fleshed out over time would have made the show so much better. For instance, I still have no idea what Henley’s deal was. Is she Chloe? If so, big deal. We don’t know the significance of “Chloe” at all. Her last phone call was a bit contradictory, but was is significant? And the Magic Man. Whoa. How did the Magic Man get away with everything when the identity wasn’t exactly secret at all? Magic, I guess. *pfft*

Regardless, I guess in the end, I don’t regret having watched the show, and that’s a lot more than I can say about most of them.
