: : This season I want 1) Summerlee back, 2) intellient storylines, 3) Summerlee back, 4) Marguerite and Roxton together, 5) Summerlee back, 6) Veronica and Ned to argue, each find someone else (I suggest Niko and Assai), but still kind of have the hots for each other, 7) Summerlee back, 8) more Celtic storylines 9) Summerlee back (sensing a trend yet?) 10) recurring characters, but not as a replacements for *permanent* characters. Did I mention I want Summerlee back?: Lets see: Summerlee back ( check ), I concur. :) : Intelligent storylines ( remember that Telescene probably has no idea that a significant 25 - 45 age group of viewers exists ) ( check ) Given Telescene's seeming indifference to us? I concur. : Veronica tranformed into a Lost World jungle girl ( definite personna ), Definite persona, *definitely*. And since you boys need your fun, okay, a jungle girl (and that's nothing against Jennifer ~ hell, if I looked like her, I'd love to show it off!) : As for Veronica and Ned. Do you really think she would go for him? Think now. I kinda doubt it. Roxton, the older guy, yeah. Ned, not a chance. No, not really, I only threw that in there for the people out there (and there are some) who like V & N together ~ let it die out gradually. :) I don't think there's a snowball's chance in hell that Roxton would look twice at her with Marguerite around, if there was, it would have happened by now. I want (as I said) Veronica with Niko and Ned with Assai. : Character development and histories ( check ) I concur. : NO CELTIC storylines. Pretty please? I love the Celts. :( : There should be one or two empires, but they should be abstracted from African or East Indian cultures no one is going to recognize. I agree *somewhat* with this, (because I like the Celts, you see) there should be only one, maybe two "empires", since it's pretty silly the way they walk out the front door and bump into a mummy or something. Pretty crowded for a Lost World! : And there should definitely be a second German expedition after Marguerite and what they think she has found. That would make for recurring characters. Okay, but some of the recurring characters should be "jungle" ones we've already met, like Niko, Assai, Kartas, maybe the Tintas ~ the ones that kind of make sense. : Need to dump all these other cultures. See above. :) : I'd bet my salary for the next 10 years that the success of the show to date is due to identification with the characters, including Summerlee, and nothing else. Take them away and the series would collapse. Yup ~ hear that Telescene. You need to keep ALL the characters!!! Check out the board ~ we are intelligent, we are (for the most part, and god knows you'd never know it from some of our posts!) *not* teenagers looking for a quick thrill!
