I think we need to start a campaign to get you hired as the new president of Fox.

Though, what would air whenever American Idol isn't on, Mr. President? The Tick, or maybe The Inside? V.R.5?

Addressed. There are still plenty of shows that are, unfortunately, left off.

My brother and I always discuss this. Don't forget Greg the Bunny, Titus, and Grounded for Life.

Like I said, not every show can fit. Greg the Bunny and Titus got worked in, though. Forgot that Sunday's schedule starts at 6.

drudo-182 · 11-12-2005, 04:06 AM

Where the heck is UNDECLARED too!

That's the most important one of all.

Gigashadow · 11-18-2005, 10:24 PM

Space: Above and Beyond is a glaring omission from your list. Talk about a show with potential canceled way to early.

Reaver · 11-19-2005, 05:14 AM

Yeah, you forgot Space: Above & Beyond, along with Brisco County Jr and John Doe. I also loved Fast Lane.

DAMN YOU FOX!! * shakes fist *

Didn't FOX also cancel Brimstone? If so, fuck 'em for that one too. I really liked that show.

THat was the one where the Devil made a deal with the cop to kill all the escaped demons, right? That one was pretty good, if it's the one I'm thinking of.

Reaver · 11-21-2005, 10:40 PM

Yeah, that's the one. I thought it was a brilliant concept, and once again FOX screwed around and messed it up.

Yeah... Where's that friggin' DVD set? I'd snatch that one up in a second.

thomashton · 11-22-2005, 12:07 AM

Good job getting Titus and Lone Gunmen in there and of course Futurama--how could they cancel that one

bjh_18 · 11-26-2005, 07:49 AM

Strange Luck

I haven't thought about that show in ages. It really was a good one.

TylerD · 11-26-2005, 12:29 PM

What, no Dark Angel? Yeah, season 2 sucked, but dammit, I want to know what happened after it!

***1138*** · 11-26-2005, 10:51 PM

Ooo, yeah, Dark Angel was good.

elwood731 · 11-27-2005, 06:54 AM

Updated to version 2.0 with a new 9 o'clock timeslot. Yes, FOX has cancelled THIS many good shows. Of course, this is to say nothing of the great shows that have actually managed to run a course on the Murdoch network. Keep the comments coming.

TylerD · 11-28-2005, 11:00 AM

Oh. Add The Critic to the list.

TalkingHead · 11-29-2005, 05:47 PM

DEFINITELY add The Critic to the list, that show was fantastic. Undeclared was a good one that didn't get a fair chance either.
