Det blir ingen Primeval Season 4!

Det är med ett tungt hjärta detta måste meddelas. Ännu en bra tv-serie har fallit för den onda saxen som kallas budget. Det blir inga fler säsonger av Primeval. Denna fantastiska serie om portaler som lockade urtiden och framtidens “monster” till dagens nutid. Detta meddelar ITV idag.

“After three very successful series of Primeval there are no plans at the present time for it to return to ITV. High-quality drama remains a key part of the ITV schedule although our current focus is on post-watershed productions,”

Detta är verkligen, verkligen synd. Då i alla fall jag uppskattat denna tv-serie.  Visst, den senaste säsongen hade sina brister och förlorat lite av sin charm. Men det fanns alltid något där som sa att man måste se mer. Inte blir det bättre heller av att den senaste säsongen slutade med en hemsk cliffhanger. Nu kanske vi aldrig kommer då reda på hur det slutar? Men än finns det hopp:

“At the point where we finished the third series, we had every reason to believe we would be doing a fourth. Had we known there was any likelihood of cancellation, clearly we wouldn’t have left half the cast marooned up a tree in the distant past. We can understand that some fans might be frustrated by this ending and we’re sorry for that. It certainly wasn’t our plan to leave things so uncertain. That said, some fans may know that there are ongoing talks for both a film and a North American series version of Primeval and if and when those projects come to fruition we will make every effort to carry on the story in a suitable way.

Obviously we’re devastated that things should end this way with ITV. But we’re absolutely certain that although this stage of its evolution seems to be over, Primeval isn’t dead. We’re very proud of what we’ve achieved over the past three years and we have every intention of keeping Primeval alive in other ways.”
