Message: <blockquote data-quote="Frankenstein Underworld" data-source="post: 142338" data-attributes="member: 35">Continuations come with checklists because they're literally the continuing story of an already established show.  So if new characters become the focus rather than the periphery, and if the continuity mistakes become prominent, that's going to upset many die hard fans.  Don't want a checklist?  Create a new show from scratch with no pre-conceived notions.Another thing I find extremely annoying are fans who insist that continuations shouldn't "live in the past," and that focusing more on new characters and disregarding continuity is somehow acceptable.  Love them or hate them, the recent continuations of sitcoms such as Fuller House, Murphy Brown, Girl Meets World, and Roseanne/The Conners not only utilize their original characters and their past, they embrace them.  After all, what's the point of doing a continuation of a show only to have it lose its identity in the process?  It's not a question of being entertaining, it's about who is more relevant.  Considering the ending to season 3, the Ramos's and the Ryland's were more relevant than Christopher Ewing.</blockquote>
