Because it is too short. And several episodes never made it into the screen. Something weird happened in early 2000s. It was like studios decided Kevin Williamson wasn't it anymore, and kept canceling his shows, before they had time to develop. The WB had several long running shows with very slow starts. But in Glory Days's case, it wasn't enough. And almost nothing was made to make the show look good, with cheap production and a bizarre scheduling. Watching it now makes you realize, it was probably just there to introduce new talents (Eddie Cahill, Poppy Montgomery and Emily Van Camp, to name a few), and future hits like destiny (Zero 7) or complicated (Avril Lavigne). They even picked a song that was about to be used on The Queen of The Damned movie soundtrack, as the theme song for the series. So was it only purpose was to be commercialized? Any fans of the screenwriter would love this. It had intrigues, romance, fun and body counts. And the pop culture references, and witty one liners, we're used to spot on his scripts. This cancellation is a real pity, I thought it fitted perfectly in this year's WB lineup, and should've had its whole thirteen episodes run. To see if it was worth it or not. Which you can't decide with so few episodes...
