 [ Summary: What about the rumors that TNT has pulled the plug on Crusade? ]

Sb: #58948-More Crusade rumors....
Fm: J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI

      The plug has not been pulled by TNT, which cannot pull the plug because 
we don't work for TNT, we work for WB.  TNT is a distributer.

      All I can say for now is that, like Oliver Stone's project for TNT, 
Witchblade, we have found that TNT (known primarily for westerns, historical 
dramas and wrestling) is not SF-friendly in terms of really getting what SF is 
about, and it may not entirely reconcile with what their core audience expects 
from them...and that a new, more SF friendly venue is being explored.

      So if folks wanted to drop an encouraging note to, let's say, the Sci-Fi 
Channel, for instance, that would certainly be okay by me.

      But in the interim...no, we're not canceled.  We're taking off next week 
to allow WB to work its magic, but that's about it.

                                                                    jms
