History AndTheFandomRejoiced / LiveActionTV

* ''{{Series/Bones}}'':
** Mixed with some disappointment when Booth and Brennan finally got together as a couple...but their RelationshipUpgrade wasn't really shown onscreen due to having to fast track things to work around Emily Deschanel's pregnancy.
** A lot of rejoicing when Christopher Pelant finally got killed off.

''{{Series/Bones}}'':

* A television series of the book ''Literature/GoodOmens''...ehh...the [[DevelopmentHell film]] never happened and that was [[WTFCastingAgency fortunate]] so perhaps th- [[Creator/MontyPython Terry Jones]] is in charge?! YES!

** A lot of rejoicing when Christopher Pelant finally got killed off

** Even better? During the episode, Ashoka name-drops ''GRAND ADMIRAL THRAWN'' to appear in live-action.
** Hell, ''The Mandalorian'' is packed with these in season 2 from the return of ''BOBA FETT'' to the mind-blowing finale scene of [[spoiler: '''LUKE FREAKING SKYWALKER''' (with CGI of a young Mark Hamil himself)]] saving the day.
** The finale as Fett takes over Jabba's empire, leading to...

** And in said show, comes a character fans had long dreamed of seeing in live-action but never thought they'd witness for real: ''CAD BANE!''

** The fandom rejoiced to hear Aiden was making an appearance after being fired, then a collective groan went out when she was StuffedIntoTheFridge and only appeared in flashbacks.

* Creator/DisneyChannel pulling a "Series/The90sAreAllThat" on Wednesday midnights... [[https://twitter.com/DisneyChannelPR/status/324611974501638145 We kid you not.]] Not to mention it was also right timing since it's the channel's 30th Anniversary. (Even though it's one show for a whole hour though, but who cares? It's the nostalgia that's important!)

* Creator/JossWhedon is making a [[Series/{{Dollhouse}} new show]]! And it stars Creator/ElizaDushku! Wait...is she ''about to [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer kiss]]'' a sexily scarred Creator/AmyAcker?! And she's wearing DOMINATRIX GEAR this episode? And she seems to have been SchoolGirlLesbians with ''[[Creator/SummerGlau SUMMER GLAU]]''?!?!

* So season 2 of ''Series/{{Batwoman}} was better than expected. I wonder who the next villain will be. It's gonna be Poison Ivy? AND SHE's BEING PLAYED BY Creator/BridgetRegan? SHE GETS TO PLAY AS [[Series/AgentCarter ANO]][[Series/JaneTheVirgin THER]] SAPPHARIC VILLAIN?! Sign me up!

* British fans of ''Series/RuPaulsDragRace'' had been clamoring for a UK version of the show for years, complete with speculation over who should host it and who would make it on as contestants. It was first announced in 2014 but languished in DevelopmentHell for four years. Then in 2018, it was announced that not only was the first season of ''Drag Race UK'' finally in production, but it would be hosted by [=RuPaul=] himself, making it the first ForeignRemake of ''Drag Race'' to have his direct involvement. Once the season began airing, the rejoicing continued, as fans were happy to see the show feature British culture rather than having the queens emulate American drag.

* ''Series/TheWarOfTheWorlds'': Another adaptation of HG. Well's famous novel. Except this time, rather than update the story to the present day, it will finally be set in the original era.

* Creator/SamRaimi is working on an ''Franchise/EvilDead'' TV series? ''And Creator/BruceCampbell is returning as Ash?!'' And LucyLawless is co-starring? And it's going to be just as ridiculous, snarky, over-the-top, and bloody as ever? '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unnLg1TPCYM Groovy]]'''.

* Excuse me, Creator/BBC, but are you feeling alright? I thought you just mentioned ''Series/RobotWars''. [[http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/robot-wars-returns You did?]] [[UnCancelled It's coming back?!]]

* With ''Series/Runaways2017'' on Hulu and ''Series/CloakAndDagger2018'' on Freeform, any hopes of the much-loved crossover from the comics appearing on TV were seemingly dashed...until an announcement out of nowhere in 2019 that Cloak and Dagger would be appearing in an episode of Runaways series three.
* ''Series/TheWarOfTheWorlds'': Another adaptation of HG. Well's famous novel. Except this time, rather than update the story to the present day, it will finally be set in the orginal era.
* ''Series/TheMandalorian'': In March of 2020, it was announced that Rosario Dawson was joining the cast of ''The Mandalorian'' as [[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars Ahsoka Tano]], former padawan of Anakin Skywalker before his fall to the Dark Side, and one of the few people to survive a one-on-one fight with Darth Vader himself. Fans were screaming from the very joy of the news.

*** Unfortunately, [[MoodWhiplash just before the fifth season started production]], the series was struck with the AuthorExistenceFailure of castmate Cory Monteith. To be fair, they handled it beautifully.

** There's going to be a TyrannosaurusRex and Liopleurodon in the fifth season? Hooray!

Fans were screaming from the very joy of the news.
** It's the second season finale and the protagonists have barricaded themselves on the bridge of an Imperial command cruiser while a platoon of Dark Trooper droids are slowly breaking down the door. How will they get out of this one? Suddenly an X-Wing fighter appears... is it the New Republic come to help them? Wait, there's only ''one'' X-Wing? The pilot is ''a man in a black cloak?'' He's wielding ''a green lightsaber?'' He's wearing ''a black glove on his right hand?!'' He wipes out all the Dark Troopers and makes his way to the bridge! He lowers his hood and it's '''''[[TheHero LUKE SKYWALKER]]!''''' He's voiced by Creator/MarkHamill with his face deaged by CGI!
