Every now and then I get off the computer and watch a little quality T.V. (damn little of that these days). Friday's at 9:00pm was one of those times. And they canceled it with a cliffhanger ending. It was the only show on friday I set aside time to watch. Anybody else who liked this show should come sign the petition at:

How the fvck was the bartender the evil dude? I mean, wouldn't that require a lot of him being in two places at once?

All I know is I'm pissed. I wanted some closure, man!

Yet another brilliant programming move by FOX. It's a miracle any shows make it past one week on their network. Seems if a show doesn't do huge numbers IMMEDIATELY they will kill it. Crap like American Idol, Joe Millionaire and that God-awful Boston Public thrive there. :|

As for Boston Public, I never knew there was so much drama and compelling storytelling in an innercity school.

I guess they too forgot who the hell he was and didn't feel like spending the money on another season to find out.

Of course you didn't, because FOX, in their apparent bid to gain viewers, moved it from it's original night, to Friday night, and then pre-empted it A LOT for various sports and miscellaneous crap. How could you hear of it, or find it if you were looking for it? :|

Sounds like they pulled a "Family Guy" on it.

Just found out the news myself, and I'm pissed! This was one of the few good shows on Fox and I find out today that they're replacing it with Boston Public?? WTH?

John Doe was an excellent show the first 5 or six episodes. Then it turned into junk, just like the rest of tv these days.

Tidus was boring as hell and just plain dumb. John Doe was awsome even though the plot got slowed downed quite abit.

I think Fox was a little too quick to pull the trigger on this one. The story was just getting interesting.
