oops - forgot about Grace! sorry ---

i didn't know all of that anyway -- i knew she had a husband at one point - and that she had a baby - but didn't know the rest -

oh - what ever happened to Nathan Brubaker anyway?? does anyone know? b/c the guy just disappeared - he was there, then, all of a sudden, he's gone w/ no word? and never mentioned again as far as i can recall --- very weird - was he abducted by aliens or something???

Nathan seemed to disappear with the season 2 shakeup.....I kinda liked him actually, and I have no idea what happened to him. Though he did have a wife who had left him when he went to work for VCTF....I know that she gave him an alitmatum, VCTF or me kind of thing.

Maybe he went back to her afterall, and became <gasp> a senator!

the writers simply moved his file to the 'character wasteland' file and forgot about him. he didn't really fit well into the storyline so we'll just drop him

{ACA} Spellcaster · 29th October 2001, 01:37 PM

true but a shame

i watched the eppy with Nathan's wife again today and looking at it i'd say he got back with her.....and they lived happily ever after

well a girl can dream can't she

i hate it when they do that -- if you're gonna dump a character - make sure there's a reason for it -- even a passing mention is better than nothing --

alas - he has gone the way of the 'forgotten' character, never to be heard from again --

{ACA} Spellcaster · 8th November 2001, 12:29 PM

you never know they might dig him up fromt he archives one day when they are looking for a new story line

yeah - that'll happen - considering the show's been cancelled -- sure --- bring Nathan back - he'd love that - he'd be the only one there!!

{ACA} Spellcaster · 9th November 2001, 12:36 PM

yeah - both Pretender and Profiler were cancelled by NBC when it decided that a better venture would be the (now-defunct) XFL - Xtreme Football League - the XFL was a HUGE flop - totally sucked - everybody watched the 1st game (my sister and i spent our time making fun of the guys - they were ugly and had stupid names!) - after that - no one watched anymore - and NBC hasn't had a decent Sat-nite line-up since ---

so - basically - they ditched 2 really great shows for some really stupid, bad sport and a bunch of lifeless movies -- it sucks -

{ACA} Spellcaster · 12th November 2001, 11:45 AM

lmao

isn't that what tv stations are here for? to totally stuff up our lives by taking the good stuff off......and giving us crappy stuff instead?

apparently it is why they're around -
and trust me - it's not the first stupid thing NBC's done -

NBC initially had JAG - and Andrea Parker (Miss Parker on The Pretender) was Harm's partner - well, NBC told DP Bellesario to get rid of her and bring in a 'perky blond' -- so DPB brought in Tracy Needham (she's really good, but not as strong as Mac), then NBC cancelled the show - don't know why b/c it was a popular show ---

well - so, CBS picked it up as a mid-season replacement and brought in Catherine Bell to be Harm's new partner (b/c CBS wanted a Marine the same rank as Harm instead of a junior officer) -- so out w/ Needham and in w/ Bell - (out w/ Meg Austin, in w/ Sarah MacKenzie) -- and the rest is history - CBS has one of the most popular tv shows in primetime and NBC is kicking themselves for dropping it (i'm sure) - tho, NBC still carries all the L&O's -- so it does have THAT going for it ----

end dissertation on network tv line-ups

{ACA} Spellcaster · 13th November 2001, 10:48 AM

lmao

ok and i thought our tv stations lived to stuff us around....your's beat ours hands down!

Highlander II · 13th November 2001, 05:03 PM

ironically - and i think i read this somewhere - CBS initially had the pilot episode and several others, lined up for Law & Order - and never aired them - so NBC picked 'em up and L&O has been there every since -- at least, i THINK that's the way it went ---

these networks are so stupid ---

however, 'ditching' Andrea Parker left her available as Miss Parker on the Pretender - just think- would MP have been the same and as popular with any other actress?? personally? I don't think anyone else would have done it as well -- Andrea is such a strong actress -----

{ACA} Spellcaster · 17th November 2001, 01:20 PM

ahh thus proving the point that all things happen for a reason

Highlander II · 18th November 2001, 02:54 AM
