…they canceled Joan of Arcadia after only 2 seasons…
Joan: “It was a total disaster.”
God: “Nothing of value comes without a little struggle. Some of the most beautiful flowers in the world only grow after a forest fire. Literally out of the ashes they blanket the ground with color.”
Joan: “Yeah, but if you made that happen without the fire, people would like you more.”
God: “They’d just find something else to blame me for.”
God: “You can’t control everything, Joan. Turmoil, conflict, chaos; they’re just part of life. Look at any playground. The screaming, the laughter, the tears. Out of that mayhem comes relationships, love, and the simple joy of being surprised by life.”
Joan: “So, more surprises?”
God: “Oh yeah, there’s always more surprises.”
JoA was such a great show. You can find words of wisdom in every episode. I will never forgive CBS for canceling it. It deserved a third season.
