Rats. Another DC Comics character-based project,
Human Target has been cancelled, along with some other shows I mostly never heard of.
Human Target starred the under appreciated Mark Valley (
Keen Eddie, Boston Legal) as sort of a bodyguard for hire. The series started like a James Bond-on-TV kind of thing, and then shifted gears in its second season to be a lot more than that. I really dug it, and it wasn't even one of my favorite comics characters. But this is what often happens to shows I like, particularly sci-fi/horror/comic book series. So, attention
Charmed, Smallville and
Supernatural: the reason you got so many seasons is that I for some reason never watched you, even though you're in my sweet spot. The lesson for me: if you think a show is going to be
super cool, wait for the DVDs, and
do not write about it on the blog!
It should be noted that in addition to Mark Valley, we can add Chi McBride, Christian Slater, David Denman and Bret Harrison to a long list of actors who keep getting cast in short-lived projects. Harrison (
Breaking In, V, The Loop, Reaper) has a list of failed series to rival Matthew Perry before
Friends.
