October Road

I read that the cancelled series October Road was going to film a 15 minute finale to explain what happened and where things went with the characters. I love this idea. Having loved more than my fair share of soon-to-be-cancelled shows (Lyon's Den and Life As We Know It), I think this should almost be a requirement. It would also help if unaired shows were burned off either on TV (perhaps in a marathon) or made available online. They definitely should be made available via streaming services like NetFlix. Imagine knowing how things end up instead of wondering. I realize this could turn out like the last episode of Everwood where almost too many loose ends are neatly tied together quickly (and they had an hour!). Too bad I'm just a computer programmer and not in charge of a television network...
