Members SIPort Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 I can't believe they were thatclose to Sarah. And the Prof totally knew what that symbol was about....can't wait for next week. And Sarah's parents have her daughter. She never explained it to her hubby? So glad the guy went to get a DNA test.

Members DaysFanJean Posted October 1, 2006 Members Share Posted October 1, 2006 Eddie Cibrian joins the cast later this season. Eddie played Matt Clark on The Young and the Restless from 1994 - 1996 and later starred in Sunset Beach as Cole Deschanel from 1997 - 1999.

Members DruRocks Posted October 1, 2006 Members Share Posted October 1, 2006 Eddie Cibrian makes me want to tune BACK IN. Unfortuantely I think this show is going to vanish by the time November sweeps rolls around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SIPort Posted October 3, 2006 Members Share Posted October 3, 2006 I can't believe hottie Agent is gone That's really interesting for a show to kill off one of the main good guys halfway through the first season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted October 3, 2006 Members Share Posted October 3, 2006 The agent was pretty much the only thing that kept me tuning in because of that, I'm not sure whether I'm happy he's gone or not. The rest of the cast just doesn't have the charisma to hold my attention. I cared about the agent making good after the case that went wrong. He was really the character that was driving the story for me. I'm not sure if this show will last or not. Prison Break is a pretty good lead in, but I haven't seen the ratings and wheather this show is holding on to the PB audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted October 3, 2006 Members Share Posted October 3, 2006 Vanished was number 62 which isn't a too bad a place to be. I'm liking it better every week. The execution of Hal was horrid. I hated it too much. Cibran will probably be the one in charge now and Hal's partner will be featured a lot. After the mad dash to stop the Senator before he made a terrible mistake, breaking into a system to evacuate the White House, and already in trouble, poor guy didn't stand a chance to stay in place so I suppose that is why he was killed off instead of just sent packing due to his lack of discipline. He was really good, too. My favorite character is Judy (the reporter I think that's her name). She is the one that keeps the story together and has views that wouldn't be included with either the Senator or the FBI. That's an intriguing thing to me. I also like her hot personal life LOL. So we have to wait three more weeks to find out what the Senator will do and what his ex-wife will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted October 5, 2006 Members Share Posted October 5, 2006 Here's a guy who would be perfect to write a soap: Josh Berman. I'm just curious what he'll do with this show. Can't wait to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted October 5, 2006 Members Share Posted October 5, 2006 http://community.tvguide.com/thread.jspa?threadID=700008082 Find Out Why Gale Harold Vanished!It's not every day that a TV show kills off its leading man seven episodes into the first season. But that's exactly what happened on Monday's Vanished, when Gale Harold's Det. Kelton got caught in a hail of gunfire — punishment for learning too much, too soon. Now, for the first time, exec producer Josh Berman explains why he made his star, um, vanish. (Note: Shortly after this interview was conducted, a tip came in that Fox was relocating Vanished to Friday nights. No confirmation yet from the network. I'll keep you posted.) Ausiello: So, why'd you kill him off? Josh Berman: The premise of Vanished is that no one is safe. When we were thinking about going into baseball [hiatus] and leaving the viewers wanting more, what better way [to do that] than to have our lead character get too close to the truth? On this show, anything can happen at any time. Ausiello: The buzz going around is that Gale didn't exactly endear himself to the cast and crew. Is there any truth to that? Berman: I think a lot of that is gossip. Gale was a consummate professional. I really enjoyed working with him. I don't think that's a fair assessment at all. I have heard that, but I didn't experience that. Ausiello: How did he react to the news? Berman: Really well. We had always talked about something like this happening to his character; we just didn't know when it would happen. But when we were writing the episodes, we realized that his character was getting close to the truth quicker than we had originally anticipated. So [fellow exec producer] Mimi Leder and I had a big discussion with him about how he would feel about doing this in Episode 7, leading into baseball. And he was really gung-ho about it. In fact, in the episode where he's shot, there's a scene where his [estranged] wife gives him his wedding ring back; that was his idea. He thought that if he was going to die, it would be nice to have closure with Ava. I thought that was a great, human instinct to have as an actor. He was on board. He loves the show, and he loves his character. Like his character, Gale had a lot of questions, and I think that it was very satisfying for him to get some answers before he left. Ausiello: So, just to be clear, this was solely a story-line-dictated decision, and had nothing to do with Gale or his performance? Berman: No. Fox told us to think outside the box from the beginning. We're not constrained by, "Oh, we have a [contract] with him for this season." We want this to be an edge-of-your-seat kind of show. And I think now, with killing off our main character, no one can guess what's going to happen next. Ausiello: In casting Eddie Cibrian to replace him, were you specifically looking for someone completely different? Berman: Absolutely. Gale's character was very tortured by the loss of a young boy six months before the investigation began. And even though he followed protocol, he still blamed himself for a botched ransom drop. He was a damaged soul, and he was seeking salvation through his work, whereas Eddie's character, Det. Danny Lucas, is much more relaxed, much more comfortable in his own skin. He rose through the ranks of the FBI extremely quickly, only to find out that he enjoyed fieldwork more than being stuck in an office in D.C. And the fact that he had a personal connection to Agent Kelton — they were roommates in Quantico – was a good excuse for him to get down and dirty and help solve the disappearance of Sara Collins. And that's what brings him to Atlanta. Ausiello: Let's talk about the ratings. They're not great. What are you hearing from the network? Berman: All that I hear from the network is that creatively they couldn't be happier. I wish our ratings were higher, but at the same time, I think we have found a very passionate, loyal following, and I think Fox is happy with that. We just wish it were a little bigger. Ausiello: Are you confident that one way or another, fans will see this story to its conclusion? Berman: This isn't a show where one episode provides closure. We'll be providing closure in bits and pieces. As we turn over new cards, new questions will be asked. But we started this show with, "Who is Sara Collins? Where is Sara Collins?" And by the end of Episode 13, we answer both those questions. And then, of course, there are new mysteries to solve. As a viewer, I get frustrated when it takes forever to get to the answer, so that's not what Vanished is. Ausiello: Will you be presenting a new mystery in Episode 14? Berman: Not necessarily a new mystery, just new facets of Sara Collins' story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members PSPCindy Posted October 26, 2006 Members Share Posted October 26, 2006 I can't believe I didn't see this thread before. DaysFanJean, I so agree. I tuned in to this show to see Gale Harold. I loved him as Brian Kenny on QAF and couldn't wait to see him do a different type role. I loved him as the tortured, driven FBI agent. The execution of Kelton was such a shock and I am still reeling. Some think it is a ruse or he is just gravely injured. But since Harold is doing a Broadway play now with Blythe Danner, that looks to have a good run, I suppose Kelton is in fact dead. The switch of the time slot is not promising for the longevity of "Vanished" but if Kelton is dead, they have lost me already. The show was good but without the guy I tuned in to see, I doubt I will continue to watch. Although I loved Eddie Cibrian on Y&R and 3rd Watch, I see him here as an interloper. That may be unfair and totally subjective, but there it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
