elyesgabel Look at these peoples.... with make ups,heavy lighting, and some speculative curly 80s hair mullet mismanagement. For 4 seasons a team comprised of talented, dedicated....extremely strange human beings, collected on set to entertain people. It’s come time to pass the torch on to another show that will do the same. It was my supreme pleasure to work with everyone involved in the show, and I am thankful to them and the incredible fans, whose generous support has been strong and loving. We make entertainment so people can derive something from it. Happiness. Thank you for your support. Much love to you all! I think we see another door opening ;) @scorpioncbs@housegabel

I need to vent for a little bit about this #SaveScorpion movement.  Because I’m frustrated.  I’m frustrated as fuck.  So much is being done wrong within that movement that even though I doubt we had a chance to save the show following the cancellation announcement anyway, that movement has basically dug itself into an even deeper hole.

I’m sorry if anyone reading this takes anything I say personally, please don’t.  This stuff is complicated and I wouldn’t even know about a lot of it if I wasn’t told when I was part of the campaign to #SaveTheMentalist back in 2014.  But it’s the responsibility of people who decide to take the reins of a movement to know what they’re doing, and honestly this campaign to get Scorpion a fifth season has been largely a disaster from the start.

1. It’s astronomically more difficult to save a show that’s already been cancelled. People are using Brooklyn Nine-Nine as a precedent, but NBC initially had that show and sold the pilot script to FOX, and they regretted it before the pilot even aired. They’ve basically been waiting in the wings to get it back. Scorpion doesn’t have that, but people see what happened with the Nine-Nine and think all that has to happen is an uproar on Twitter.  And we aren’t even doing that part right.  Firstly, we started way too late.  This organization that people are trying to do needed to happen when Scorpion still had (preferably 6-8) episodes left to air. 2. The “official” account for getting the show a season five drags its feet. They keep tweeting about how they’ll have a plan “soon.” As I’ve already mentioned, not only did this “plan” have to be a thing back in February/March, the show was cancelled two days ago now. If they wanted to trend something on Twitter, it really needed to happen two days ago (note that #SaveB99 trended literally within minutes of the cancellation notice and continued to trend into the next day). CBS is not constantly checking twitter to see our reactions and certainly not anymore. Their Upfronts are in two days, they’re working on that stuff now. If we had a ‘window’ it’s pretty much certainly gone.  No executive is gonna be like “we cancelled this show on Saturday and on Tuesday people got REALLY fired up so we changed our minds.” 3. None of these people have any idea how Twitter works. Trending is supposed to be difficult, and Twitter has safeguards in place to prevent spam accounts. In order to trend on purpose, there has to be a focused effort at one particular time – the @SaveScorpion account keeps telling us to keep tweeting lots with #SaveScorpion, and that’s counterproductive. If there are a lot of tweets over a period of several days but not enough to trend, that hurts the chances of it ever trending. Trends pop up when something suddenly gets a lot of attention it wasn’t already getting. When we got The Mentalist renewed, we had the generic hashtags we used to tweet about the show most of the time, and each week when we trended it, we had our #SaveTheMentalist one (or whatever it was, this was years ago at this point and I don’t remember the hashtags exactly) that we ONLY used when we were trying to trend. We trended almost every week for a while there. Trends also need at least one tweet with 100 retweets, and that needs to be a tweet that happens during the period where we are trying to trend. When I informed some people of this yesterday, they started suggesting we get tweets that already had 50+ retweets up to 100 to help it – that won’t work because those tweets are already hours old. ANOTHER THING is Tweets that are spamming the hashtag (like people using #SaveScorpion #RenewScorpion over and over again copy pasting to fill the tweet up) actively hurt chances of trending because Twitter files those as spam. Tweets with no content BUT a hashtag (i.e., tweets that are nothing more than #SaveScorpion) also don’t count.  In addition, tweets with more than two DIFFERENT hashtags in them also are filtered as spam, and it was never announced which of the popular hashtags (#TeamScorpion #ScorpionCBS #RenewScorpion #ScorpionSeason5) were supposed to be used, so some people used all of them (counterproductive as they were filtered as spam in the trend algorithm) or people all used different ones (also counterproductive as the trend algorithm didn’t know we were talking about the same thing). The @SaveScorpion account has also used the same hashtag twice in one tweet, i.e. “we need to #SaveScorpion make sure you use the tag #SaveScorpion!” Not only does that put it into the spam filter for trends, everyone retweeting it is also contributing to the hashtag being considered spam. Honestly I don’t know if it’s even possible for that hashtag to trend anymore, what with all the tweets over the past few days and with how many of those tweets were done incorrectly. 4. People are trying to prove points to CBS that are just kinda proving why they didn’t renew it in the first place. Like some of us HAD CBS-All Access and told them we would cancel if the show didn’t come back – we made good on that promise. Other people are now saying “I don’t have CBS All-Access but I’ll get it if you renew the show” and when CBS reads that they see “this show was on for four years and it never made me get CBS All-Access.” They aren’t losing those people’s money by cancelling the show because they didn’t have it in the first place. Ditto for people saying they never bought the DVDs/merch from the store but will if they bring the show back. A lot of this is just too little, too late. We knew from October the show was in danger, but people didn’t take it seriously until the finale had already aired (when I saw Kat in Chicago she kept on saying “watch Scorpion guys, we want season five!” And when I told that to people they were like “oh we’ll be fine The Cancel Bear says we should get renewed.” ) This show was on the bubble all year, and this big organization to save it happened after the season had already aired in its entirety, and then did so without warning (or even knowing, I suspect) that a good chunk of the effort was counterproductive or just seemed to validate CBS’ decision.

Everyone keeps tagging me in their tweets, and honestly, I'm just tired. I hate that this show ended with the team split up, I cried for hours when we found out we were cancelled, but at this point I've accepted that it's over. The result of that acceptance is two feelings when I see all the #SaveScorpion tweets - annoyance at wondering where all this was back when we were still airing episodes, and frustration at how much is being done wrong. Even though our chances of being saved are literally almost zero, it's still frustrating to me to see how much effort is being put out in ways that don't even count.

And yeah yeah yeah, don’t come at me with “then why didn’t you organize something months ago?”  I’ve got three jobs, other shows, and a life.  I’ve been traveling - I’ve been in five states in the past month.  I didn’t organize it because I knew I couldn’t put out the long term effort that a movement like that deserves.   When you take it upon yourself to be at the head of something like this, you have to really commit, both in time and in knowing what you’re doing.  When people decided to step up and organize something, they should have researched how to do it effectively.  Now we’re hearing that they’re “being given information by people who have saved shows in the past” but I have a pretty good idea those people and those shows had their act together before a cancellation was announced and didn’t wait days to even figure out a time zone for a trending attempt that is apparently going to happen but we don’t even know on what day.  I am still periodically responding to tweets explaining why that tweet/suggestion won’t work, but not because I think we have a shot at getting our show back.  I’m doing it because it still hurts and frustrates me knowing that these people are working so hard and have no idea that in many cases they’re not only not helping, but hurting their own movement.  I would still be trying if it was more organized, but it’s too much of a mess, and I dread logging on to Twitter because my notifications are nothing but these tweets.  

Long story short, this is too little, too incorrectly, too late.

Scorpion Season 5

I had a sad dream last night where I found out the fate of Scorpion and let's just say I was saddened by the decision. Every website in my dream said scorpion was cancelled and I was like NOOOOO!! Let's hope we get a season 5 because scorpion can't end like this. My dream better not come true.

[tomcrown1]

What the he—Elementary that loser of a show is renewed what? Scorpion numbers are way better. Did Nick Wootton do something to get CBS angry? I am beginning to think that the season ending final sealed Scorpion fate not the ratings @CBS #ScorpionSeason5
