Blade: The Series Season 2
To anyone interested, there's a petition over at imdb on the page for Blade: The Series to get a second season going. For anyone who doesn't know, the first season was produced by Spike TV and was aborted after 1 season when it didn't perform as well as they wanted. It's not that it did bad, it just didn't do well enough considering its cost. In any event, I think they should have given it more of a chance to find an audience because I just started watching it on DVD but so far, it kicks ass.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
The series has been over for too long to think it'll get picked up again, it was fun while it lasted, but it ain't coming back.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
There's also been talk of a direct to DVD movie; I'm not saying to get your hopes up, but showing support can't hurt

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
I'd be happy with a DVD film , I liked the show was cool and good ending cliff hanger.

As a matter of fact, if you took "Blade" out of this series, it would have been pretty good. But watching his portrayal was like, "Really? WTF is this?" Personally I think it was David Goyer's final way of giving the big middle finger to Wesley Snipes.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
I'll sign it but I doubt the will get picked up. It's a pity because it was an excellent show. The problem is that it ended up on the Troglodyte network, which is run by utter simpletons. I hope we haven't seen the last of Blade either on the small or big screen.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
This was one of the worst shows ever. Not because it was actually bad but because a supporting character actually stole the show. That's unheard of. The blade character was nothing more than a prop. They should have called it Krista the Series which I actually wouldn't have minded.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
I was not impressed by the show. It had some interesting stuff going on, particularly the bits delving into Blade's past, but ultimately I think Sticky Fingaz just wasn't ready to take on the lead role in a TV series. He just didn't give a very compelling performance. Didn't help that Krista and even his hacker sidekick totally overshadowed him, either.

Omar Epps would have been a better Blade than Sticky fingas.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
The show isn't coming back....at least not on Spike...they are too busy courting the visor wearing, head gel, armband tattoo demographic with 6 hours a day of UFC programming

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
Michael Jai White would have been a much more fitting replacement for Snipes. He has the martial arts back ground which Sticky lacked, and the acting chops. I seriously doubt it's coming back. It was pretty good for what it was, but i really think if Snipes or White were the ones playing Blade, the show might have stuck around for a while.
How's the dvd? I heard it's uncut with alot of nudity.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
People kept throwing White's name around when the show was being made, and I always thought he was a good pick.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
This show got good about 6 episodes in. Before that was a borefest, but after that was a series that stated to develop an interesting story and had me waiting every Wednesday night.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
I got this show on DVD cause Best Buy had it mis-priced for $15 for the entire series...I watched one episode, then put it on my shelf and havent touched it since. Please, no season 2.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
There was one episode where Blade's old crew came back to haunt him. I thought it might actually be getting good at that point. But even then, I still just couldn't buy Sticky as Blade.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
At the very least, they had an interesting villain, that's what really kept me coming back each week.

Re: Blade: The Series Season 2
Neil Jackson is a pretty good actor. I hope he gets a starring role in something soon.
