Fox has a habit of getting rid of good shows...Family Guy, Firefly, and Futurama, to name 3... it wouldn't surprise me if they were getting rid of Arrested Development, too. If the current idiots were running Fox 16 years ago, the Simpsons would have been cancelled within 6 shows.

They have a full season order for the rest of the season. Fox has given this show a good chance. Unfortunately, audience members aren't showing up. This season's premiere only got 4-5 million viewers. It will probably be canceled at the end of this season.

King of Queens is on and it's hilarious. He was getting his hair cut by a hot woman and his wife showed up. I was actually LOL.

Gotta be...

No appreciation for the witty writing, mock documentary style, the running narrative commentary, or the brilliant acting. The actors freaking rock! (Except for Maeby--she needs to tone it up a bit, because she's not Sara Gilbert (Darlene on Rosanne). Her monotone delivery just isn't working.)

I guess they should have put in a laugh track to tell people that it's a comedy, and it's funny. Or else they should have animated it.

Everytime I see them driving the stair truck on the road, I laugh my ass off.

Ron Howard: Michael sold the company jet, and simultaneously solved the family's transportation problem.

Hilarious. They're getting so much "mileage" out of that gag I can't believe it!

Anyway, I'm glad they didn't just suddenly cancel it. I knew this could be the last season, but it would have been simply wrong to just shelve it. They did that to Futurama and left some episodes unaired. Fans had to wait for the DVD to see them.
