Yeah theres a shock right, FOX pooched another AWESOME show....

Sign the petition.

I don't know if it will actually get anywhere but it couldnt hurt to sign it!

I hate FOX....Family guy, then Firefly and now Wonderfalls....every decent show on their networks gets canned, but come on, canning Wonderfalls after 4 episodes is just dumb....especially when they allready have 9 more episodes filmed.

You had to know this was coming the second they moved it from Fri. to Thurs.

The slot move is the beginning of the death throwes of most Fox shows.

That's the show with the stupid talking animals? I swear if these stupid shows woulid ask me first I could tell them outright not to bother, before the show even wastes any money on pilots and what not. That show looked like tripe.

Another one - stephen king's kingdom hospital. That show won't last, because it's absolutely pathetic and horrifically bad. Anybody with a clue could see that.

Yup. That's why American Idol, Will & Grace, and Reality TV Stunt #32432 are the best shows on TV.

So... Wonderfalls; Normal, Ohio; A Minute with Stan Hooper; The Lone Gunmen; Titus; Family Guy; Futurama; Firefly; John Doe; Grounded for Life...
Say what you will about these shows, but every single one of them is better than yet another reality show or the next season of American Idol.

Bitter girl suddenly starts having inanimate objects telling her to do things, that through seemingly unconnected events, lead up to some event transpiring (finding out her sister's dark secret, hooking some dude up with a new love, yada yada).

The show is about a 20 something girl living in niagra who has a freak incident with a quarter (hard to explain) and inanimate animals start telling her to do things, these things usually result in something good happening (like a father reunited with a daughter he didnt know he had).

Its just a really quirky interesting show. It has good writing, good acting, its funny, original and just so dang nice not to have ANOTHER reality TV show....
Everyone I know LOVES this show, give it a try this Thursday at 9/8c on FOX....it really is a good show.

And Citrix, in your opinion those shows may have sucked but I know gobs of people who disagree. And yes a good show WILL get bad ratings if you put it on friday nights during the NCAA tourney and then move it without really telling anyone at all.

Firefly had AWESOME dialogue and wit, that show was incredible. Family Guy was hysterical and again just about everyone I knows loves it, hell look at how many DVD's it sold! You cant tell me its because the show just sucked. Firefly also did really well on DVD sales.

Just out of curiosity, what are your favorite TV shows?

I really dont have any "favorite" tv shows that are broadcasted on the major networks. I hate sitcoms, all sitcoms... Just something about hearing an audience laugh every 2.2 min makes me want to do evil things....

I know a lot of people liked family guy, but the bottom line is, if the show isnt doing well to sell advertising it will get canned. So yes i can say that becuase the show sucked it got canned. Belive it or not but tv or radio shows are not in the business to entertain you. they are in the business to make money by selling advertising.

I liked Boston Public better than Wonderfalls. I have taped a few episodes of it now because they moved BP to another slot astuck WF there. I only watched one of the tapes and it looked OK, Iwon't miss it. I won't miss BP either, but, we did watch it.

Family Guy is another show they screwed by constantly moving it and having a very erratic schedule of when the show would even be ON.

Sounds like Joan of Arcadia, which actually does suck.

After seeing the preview for this show it's no wonder it got cancelled. Fox needs to stop passing the crackpipe around in it's new show development department

Firefly was good so was Family Guy (which I read somewhere is coming back), but Wonderfalls sucked. Fox always cancels their friday shows, I can't remember any shows that aired on fridays and is still around. Anybody else remember Sliders, Brimstone, Millennium, Harsh Realm, John Doe, Dark Angel? Fox better not cancel Arrested Development, I :heart: that show.

I think Kingdom Hospital is a thirteen episode mini-series, so no, it won't last. ;)

How did you manage to leave out Undeclared?
