I just found an online petition to help save the show. I'm 6101 on the list.



LINK HERE.



I'm getting sick of Fox cancelling shows that I like. They should move it to Friday

if their current spot isn't cutting it. There is crap on Friday. Or put it back after

the Simpsons. Anything but cancellation. If all else fails, sell it to HBO!

    It's a bummer.



    Apparently the ratings are dismal though. I don't know why. It's freaking hilarious, and one of the few shows I make a point of watching.

    Actually I think one of those online petitions gave a reprieve to Buffy the

    Vampire Slayer or Angel, I forgot which one.

    I will not help. All of the greatest shows on television have been canceled or have been perennially threatened with cancellation. Star Trek. Homicide. Northern Exposure. Firefly. Twin Peaks. Angel (albeit, certainly not as good as BTVS). Sports Night.



    This is a good thing!

    On a better note, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia was picked up for another season. Hopefully it is a full season and not another 7 episodes.

    Why save it? So no one can watch it again?



    I love it, but let it die. Very few people actually give a damn.

    it definitely is better than what took over it on sunday night programming after the simpsons. The War at Home, WORST SHOW EVER! Family Guy and American Dad is good, it's just that 30 minute chunk which is the worst.

    Why would it be a good thing to let a great show die? That would just mean more

    generic banal crap. I happen to like shows that push the envelope of creativity.

    I'm also a big fan of Nip/Tuck because that show has the balls to go

    in some places that I never expected a show to go. Now I hear that some

    family group has managed to get a major sponsor of the show to stop

    advertising comercials on their show. The friggin' show isn't meant for the

    family or is even advertised as a family show. It's for adults, plain & simple.



    It's going to get to the point where the only shows that you can find are

    lawyer shows, reality shows, & spin-off's of spin-off's (CSI - Bakersfield).



    Thank god I have HBO to watch Rome, Deadwood, Entourage, The Wire, & etc.
