I just caught the tail end of an Adult Swim bumper after this evening's Big O goodness.

I thought it said something about AS looking to do a Big O 3. Can anyone confirm or deny this???


(Here's hoping this is true....)

They did indeed mention that if the ratings justified it, that a third season of The Big O could be made. This has been mentioned in a press release earlier.

I have heard from people attending AWA that The Big O is doing better than expected in the ratings, coupled with that card, I am more hopeful than before that a third season might be commissioned.

This has been Delthayre (Paul), who has high hopes.

I caught that too, but I take anything that comes out on those bumpers with a grain of salt.

But, knowing that it was mentioned in a press release kills that, so...yeah. I really liked the first season, I thought it was fairly different from what we were getting here in the states at the time. And it had/continues to have an interesting story.

It appears now that Roger spoiler[was one of those bal-headed chillin', who were apparently raised as Megadeuce pilots (or Domineuces) for some war effort].

I'm really diggin' it, and I would deffinately support a third season. I honestly don't think anyone foresaw The Big O doing this well. I didn't anyway. Rolling Eyes

Im willing to bet a decision for a 3rd season was made before those cards were shown to bait us. Very Happy

I believe cartoon network got an option to do up through a 4 season of Big O when they were contracting the second. So besides the 3rd mentioned in the card there coul dbe one more. Chances are very high that a 3rd will be made since Big O seems to currently have the highest ratings on AS.

A 3rd season of Big O would be excellent. But, baring what will likely be major happenings in the rest of this season, what direction would you like to see the show take?

Cool

Well for me I cant even hazard a guess til I see ep 26.

I know that Sundays ep changed my entire opinion of Angel and now Im hoping nothing bad happens to her. I was hoping Dorothy and Roger would get together but after recently finishing Chobits Im now confused on the Dorothy/Roger issue.

at the rate of the story is unfolding, i think it will take another season to wrap things up...

i'd rather hope they would finish it up this season instead of dragging story.....hmm...as i was writing this, i checked the adultswim website, and the episode guide for big o lists through 26....talk about a spoiler...

it looks to be another season...
