This isn't making any sense. I'm confused and unhappy.

I'm going to go and watch Beck's Beginning now...to wash away my sadness.

Maybe have my own little Uprising Marathon while wearing my Tron jacket.

I just googled "Tron Uprising forums"

and it came up with quite a few links to different forums with discussions on this series. From toon forums to digital forums to dvd forums...and one thing that is always mentioned is HOW GREAT THIS SERIES IS!
Also, "Why Disney doesn't show it more?" is a frequent comment left. There are also the ubiquitous haters driveling on about the character design.

So, it really isn't just us DieHard TRON fans that are suffering, but a whole slew of different walks that are discovering or re-discovering how great TRON is as a property.

..what? too soon? hehe

11/16/12 - We both know how this ends
Mara tries to prove her leadership ability when she is put in charge of the garage while Able is away.

11/22/12 THURSDAY - Grounded
The Renegade is challenged by Tesler to a showdown, but Beck is grounded at the garage by Able. The situation forces Beck to choose between his duty to Able and his responsibilities as the Renegade.

So maybe that's why it's not showing up for next Friday. Thanksgiving rearrangements anyone?
Wait, isn't the 22nd thanksgiving? I hope they're pulling a turkey day marathon if that's the case.

Everybody go join End of Line, an awesome TRON Roleplay forum! http://troneol.b1.jcink.com/index.php?

Next Season? Does that mean that we are indeed getting a next season I wonder? I hope so.

Typical Disney TRON apathy. Been that way for 30 years.

I actually think they are in the planning stages for season two, but have yet to get the green light on pre production. That's what I took from his comment. We shall see.

I'm saddened by this.

How many times can you show Kickin' It and Crash and Bernstein but not give any slots to re-airings of Tron: Uprising??!?!?!?!

If they want more viewers, all they have to do is have repeat showings of the older episodes. How difficult is that to understand? arrrrrrhhhhh!!

I actually wouldn't be surpprised if it turns out that the executives of disney channel porpuselly killled the series, after all UPRISING makes anything in disney

look like a pile of crap .

Be careful. I suspect that if we have a "next season", it really means the 8 episodes that have already been finished that we haven't seen yet. I surely hope I am wrong.

If you check out the video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTCumE2pq9Q&sns=em, Mr. Bean says that 18 episodes have already been done. Since we've seen 10 of them (including the premiere and the scars two-parter), that means that Disney can easily call the remaining 8 episodes "Season 2".

And, yes, my Comast DVR has "erased" my 11/16 scheduled recording for "Tron Uprising: We both know how this ends". The episode "Grounded" still shows for 11/22. I went "into the future" on my Comcast TV Guide, and sure enough, there is no scheduled TRON Uprising viewing for 11/16. I hope it comes back, but I am doubtful.

Crazy scheduling. I really think we should resist the urge to get "excited" about Season 2. It could just be Disney's "way" of releasing the last 8 already produced episodes...

My Suddenlink DVR doesn't show any Uprising episodes on the 22nd.

Good night Disney, get things straight! Step 1 would be to actually air Uprising consistently, step 2 would be to re-air the past episodes on a daily basis, and step 3 would be to advertise better. Don't just go for the 10 year old kids who want to be skater dudes (I am referring here to the "Gnarly Scar" promo) go for everyone. Do trailers that make you want to see it BEFORE you know you like it.

Disney, you had this same problem with the original TRON.

I shall prove my point. Link to original trailer please?
