TRULY DISAPPOINTED

I am so disappointed and depressed to find out that the new "Night Stalker" show has been cancelled by ABC.   I am in my mid 40s and grew up as a fan of the original series.   I thought this modernization was brilliant, interesting, engaging, and spirited.
As a person who does not watch a lot of TV, this was my favorite show out of 3 that I am currently following, ABC's "Desperate Housewives," and WB's "Supernatural" being the other two.
I am so upset with ABC over this, I may even stop watching "Desperate Housewives," although I enjoy it tremendously.
"Night Stalker" was so promising, so well written and so well acted.   As is natural for fans of original series, I was not sure how I would take to it, but even after seeing the first episode I was hooked.  As another poster mentioned, I do feel like crying because it feels like a real loss to me.   And for ABC to do this, especially, in the middle of a cliffhanger is the utmost cruelty and irony of the whole debacle.    All I can do is sit here and shake my head and wonder why...
Thank you, cast and crew, for a wonderful six episodes.   You were all brilliant and beautiful, and you deserved more of a chance than you were given.   I hope, at least, we can see the remaining filmed episodes (6-part 2, 7, 8, and 9)  sometime in the future.   I will pray that maybe the show can be reborn on a different network.
