[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 599217, member: 2525"] I'll respond to the rest later. But for now I couldn't help but respond to this particular contention. Thank you so much for proving my point. Jordan has run into the same problem Farscape did. His sales and readership are DOWN, as serlialization has gone UP. In fact, there is even a whole other thread just about this very issue right now. There are lots of movies that have many prior in their series. Even more TV shows, and even more comics than TV shows. But you can track problems back to serlialization with most. Comics make the best example, since Marvel claims over serialization was one key element in their bankruptcy. As for the evidence that as serialization increased with Farscape that viewership decreased, that requires me to go get all the ratings tracking and compare it to season serialization in summaries, a HUGE effort. However, you already have expert witness testimony from the executive herself on the issue, which should be good enough. If you really need more, I am willing to do the work (I know it is there, I saw the ratings go down as it was happening, but I would have to seriously dig to get that data now), but only if you REALLY need it.
