loose ends...

I was thinking about this show a few days ago. I remember how pissed I was when they canceled it after only 6 episodes. Only 4 of which were aired before the cancel! The thing that pissed me off the most was all the loose ends that were left open. They just stopped right in the middle of a huge plot reveal. Anyway, does anyone know if there were scripts written for the remainder of the season? If so, were they released to the public. Just looking to tie up those loose ends. thanks everyone!

i just finished watching the 6 episodes, and thought it was great and compelling. Thanks for the article although it still doesn't answer many of the questions.

Sounds like it would have good. Might have to track down the pilot to see Susan's mysterious appendage!

Holy god. There was so much unexplored potential. But what is up with Susan's "penis"? What could they have gained with a storyline like that? It's so random, lol.

Anyway, is it ever implied in episode 6 what the purpose of the sponsors were, why they selected contestants to be entered in the race? Was the entire race just a game for rich people?

I only do it with superheroes.

I think the first article / link answers your question :

One of the major plot points that that was being revealed was that each race participant or team had to have a sponsor to be part of the race. In some cases, the team was aware of the sponsorship and in some cases they were not. Minear offered, “Some of the sponsors would have nefarious/revenge motives for some of the players, others would have more Great Expectations-esque benevolent motives.”
Ivy, Leigh, Susan and many of the background teams were included by the race company to simply make the race more interesting. Silverstein says, “Sort of like non-player ‘bots’ in a multiplayer videogame. Imagine the fury when Leigh finds that out.”

I just finished watching the 6th, and unfortunately last, episode. Man, that was so compelling with great twists ! It's a shame that show was cancelled. If only they had made an entire season...
