Does anyone remember this show? It was on for a few episodes last year, but got canned. When I was watching enterprise last week they had an add for Jake 2.0. Does anyone know if the show will be back...or if it was a glitch (they showed the wrong promo)?

What are you talking about chris kidd?
He knows what the show is about, he was just wondering why they were showing an ad for it.

googled it and didn't find any information other than old stuff. Was it being advertised on the UPN channel or somewhere else?

It was on UPN. I have looked around and have not seen anything either. The only thing I can figure is maybe someone grabbed the wrong promo tape to put on.

Christopher Gorham is in one of the new CSI's, so unless he's somehow filming both at the same time, more likely it's just episodes that were filmed and they're showing them until they run out just to fill time.

It was a decent premise, but poorly executed. Designed to appeal to "geeks and nerds" I think, but then they got a "normal" screenwriter, and so this nerd stopped watching because I felt like my intelligence was being insulted.

lol, I just wanted him to forget about the girl from his old school that he was mooning over, and go out with the girl who was his doctor.

It was cheezy...but it was a UPN show after all. I enjoyed it...but had to ignore all the tech talk that made no sense.

Speaking of canceled shows...did anyone else watch Brimstone? It was a great show that was on a few years ago about a guy who had to hunt down people who escaped from hell. Sadly, it did not make it through a season either.

There were four unaired episodes, so maybe they're showing them.

Brimstone was very cool - unfortunately it didn't catch a niche audience. My favorite scene still involves the detective asking a tailor to repair his jacket and proceeding to explain the rips, tears and other perforations.

I thought that new Miami CSI looked familiar - any word on what happened to the other guy? I didn't care for him much, but any CSI flap usually makes the gossip pages.

From what I heard, the old CSI Miami guy wanted out to do movies, so they killed his character. From what I heard, he thought the way they killed the character was kind of dumb...but the split seemed to be without anger.

Wow, must have been an episode I missed completely.

The sad part is, he's not that good an actor - he should have taken a note from David Caruso's book.
