Prom Queen...Season Two!!????!?!?!?

I just watched what I thought would be the final episode of Prom Queen wherein, I was foolish enough to believe, all mysteries would be revealed. But instead, The Creators pulled the ol' "stay tuned for season two" fakearoo. Such insolence!

This is the same nonsense they pulled with Sam Has 7 Friends (episodes can still be seen here). That show tantalized us with the tagline: "Samantha Breslow has seven friends. On December 15, 2006, one of them will kill her." I loved Sam, and watched religiously, awaiting the inevitable final Death Episode. When the final episode was posted, I was quite surprised to see that they did not reveal which of her friends had killed her, but instead gave a teaser for a second season of Sam in which all of Sam's friends would be murdered...except one. That sounded awesome! Who doesn't love six times the carnage in your favorite soap opera podcast? Only problem is, season two has yet to materialize.

The creators posted a message on the forum that big-time corporate honcho Michael Eisner (under whose watch the Disney Corporation distributed such heartwarming family classics as Pulp Fiction, Trainspotting, and Hellraiser: Bloodline) had agreed to produce a new series of theirs called Prom Queen. What is more, he had also purchased the rights to Sam season one and the options to Sam season two. The Creators also advised us that the "future of Sam is really dependent upon the success of Prom Queen." Now Prom Queen season one is over, but there is still no word from The Creators regarding the fate of Sam. That's right...Sam's death may forever remain an epic mystery, on a par with the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa, the identity of Jack the Ripper, or the recipe for Crystal Pepsi. All I can do is hope that the same fate doesn't befall Prom Queen. These podcast shows were quite innovative and intriguing. It would be quite distressing if the man responsible for unleashing Kazaam and Ernest Scared Stupid on an unsuspecting world were to pull the plug on these two exciting and interesting projects.

So, Michael Eisner, if you happen to read this, please have mercy. Even if you have to buy your Beluga caviar at Costco or maybe get your haircuts at Supercuts for a year, please do whatever you can to make sure that these shows have a chance to live and spread joy and rainbows to tens of thousands of people all across the internet! Please, if not for me, do it for the sake of this puppy:
