My Third Season Wish List...


By KJO
All of us EE fans were holding our breath, but then we passed out and decide that wasn't such a smart thing to do. So instead we submitted Fan-Fic and YKYAEEFW ideas (did I write that correctly?) to the mailing lists trying to stem our cravings for a T.V. show about an orange tabby and a newspaper. (Oh, and that cute guy who gets the newspaper...)
Well, what were we waiting for? Have our wishes been granted?

Here is what we wanted to see happen in the third season of Early Edition:
***Wish Watch 98-99! How did we do?***

I want someone to get on Gary's case about the paper and start stalking him to find out what's up with him and the paper! (Yeah, I know they kind off did that with The Wall, but that wasn't enough!)
*** Well, Gary was stalked by Chuck's nephew. The cop guy did get on his case.....***

I want Chuck to come back and gloat every now and then.
***Which he did, very nicely done Fisher.***

I DON'T want Gary to get a girlfriend.
***No such luck there***

But I want the cat to get a girlfriend.
***This was a joke, sorry.***

I think Marissa should declare the second coming... (?)
***This was also a joke.***

I'm torn between wanting someone to get amnesia or avoiding that idea completely like the plague. (That's usually the last resort for writers who have no ideas... that and almost killing people and blindness. Marissa's already blind, so... By the way, almost killing people seems to be the trend right now in T.V. X-Files fans especially know what I'm talking about...)
***No amnesia, waiting for a fanfic to be written about it.***


I want less family programing! Lets see some blood and deep emotional conflict between man and self! (I'm pretty sure that you can't remain Americas Night Of Television when Howard Stern comes on at 11:30...)
***CBS changed their Sat. night motto to "Americas Night of Heroes". I think that Fate satisfied me for a while.***


I want more black and white flashes of insight! Chant with me... WE WANT MORE FLASHES!
***Ah, I didn't really check on this....***

I think it would be really great to put in REAL music in the background! Like in Strange Luck. They could at least play it quietly in the bar. Then we can make use of all of those great tunes people think are related to the show. (Like Under The Bridge and Runaway Train...)
***I don't think the country singer counted.***

OPENING MONOLOGUE. Chucks gone so what's to become of the monologue? I can just picture Marissa taking over- after all, she is the deep one. Gary would just be sitting there- studdering "Well, I've been gettin' this paper...umm.. about two years na- now..." (I'm kidding! He'd probably be very composed.)
***Marissa did take over for awhile then they dropped it.***

I want Gary to have a complete mental break down when he can't save someone or he gets told off by someone he's saved one two many times. Then he'll end up causing more problems then helping... and the men in the little white coats will come and take him away...
***Well, he did kinda have a breakdown a few times.***

I WANT MORE ABOUT LUCIUS SNOW AND THE PAPER! Come on! This was and still is the plot of the show! What happened? And what happened to the guy... Ya know, he was in The Wall and worked in the basement. I want them to call the Cat Mr. Snow's Cat one more time! They completely ignored this all of last year! The only thing they showed was the cat disappearing off his bed and reappearing on the other side of the door...
***Thank you Deadline! Very nicely forfilled that wish! (By the way, that WAS Morris I was talking about!) I still wanted more.***

I want Gary to get Lone Wolf syndrome. (When the guy goes off by himself and acts all cool and independent while doing cool stuff...)
***That's what next season is for, now that Evil Erica is gone.***

I want him to lose his drive and turn into a bar fly for an episode.
***Hummm... no.***

I want less of his home life and parents.
***I shouldn't have wished that. That would've been an improvement!***

Zeke Crumb should become possessed by the spirit of Lucius Snow.
***JUst having Crumb at all would've suficed! (That was a joke.)

I want more weird coincident's.
***Always.***

AND Now for my final list of weird stuff that could never happen (I'm not responsible for my following ranting's):
... McGinty's burns down and Gary moves back into the Blackstone... The bar gets haunted... Mona gets pregnant... There's an earthquake... Chuck comes out of the closet (Here comes my hate mail...)... The Red Hot Chilly Peppers come play at McGinty's... The whole 3rd season has no winter footage... Gary burns that ugly grey sweater in the middle of bar... A whole episode is just people getting drunk... Someone dies then mysteriously comes back to life... The cat starts to talk to people... The cat takes up drinking... Somehow D.B. Sweeney shows up as a regular cast member... Gary loses his leather jackets and breaks down crying in the middle of the bar...
***There is an extremely funny fanfic relating to this, look around maybe you'll find it!***
Suddenly there is no bar... and never was!

I'm done. Wasn't that a fun, scary trip?
Here were your thoughts on the matter!:

Amanda Writes (for Weird stuff):
...The entire city of Chicago falls into a giant sinkhole-the camera pans over to Gary with his newspaper , saying " I knew this was going to happen . I just couldn't get out of bed this morning ...." :)...

AnnieM Writes: My 3rd Season wish for EE is to have Tammy Lauren do a guest shot as a very special old flame of Gary's.
***I don't know who she is, but it would've been an improvement!***

Ludmila Writes:
And my wishes for the 3rd Season are...
- that Crumb shows his ugly mug around again,
***He did, once! grrr...****
- that the vampire-chick goes straight to Dawson's Creek and gets drowned for good!
***Well, she left does that count for any points?***
- that Chuck returns, period.
***SIGH***

The Author takes full credit for her craziness, unless it hurt someone when they fell down laughing- in that case- I DON'T KNOW YOU PEOPLE!!!!
Now head over to the Fourth Season List!
