This past week,
Entertainment Weekly reported that the syndicated fantasy adventure series
Legend of the Seeker was going to be cancelled after two seasons, due to low ratings.
A number of Tribune Station Group outlets had already dropped the show back in March. The main executive producers, Sam Rami & Rob Tapert (
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys,
Xena: Warrior Princess), had tried to shop the show around to other outlets without much luck.
Previously, there had been talk of getting Kevin Sorbo down to New Zealand to make a guest appearance on the show, as his Herk colleague Michael Hurst had done.
There is now a site on WordPress that is trying to rally support among fans of
Legend of the Seeker to get Disney & ABC to reconsider and not shut it down.
