I can't believe FOX cancelled this show for no good reason.
Friday Night Lights on NBC, that's a show thats always needed an ax.

No flaming from me. I remember how gawdawful whiney everyone was at Newsarama when the show was cancelled. There were 6.9 AD threads per day bitching & moaning.


I just honestly don't think the show's comedy translates well to the casual viewer. Sure, the show has it's fans.. but FOX's scheduling blunders aside, the show never really grabbed the average viewer. It's easy to retroactively blame the schedule, but I wasn't a fan, and I knew about it.. outside of the internet, most people I knew just thought it was a weird show that wasn't very funny.

You also have to add the numerous new sigs, avatars, and banners created in protest. I will say this: if the AD movie can keep production costs low, it's guaranteed a profit if you consider it's loyal fanbase. Just don't expect to get many new fans.

I hope everything goes well for the loyal fans' sake.

Did they help bring Twin Peaks back?
Or Firefly?

Or even Commander in Chief?

I'd say Scrubs is AD 2.0, but I digress...

Scrubs is actually amusing and accessible to a wide audience.

And would ya look at that... Scrubs has had to deal with constant scheduling blunders by it's network as well, just like AD.

And it lasted for 7 seasons (on NBC) and an 8th season on ABC!

Hmm...

Let's not start a battle between the Scrubbed and the Un-Developed. Only one show has semi-erotic, interracial, man-bear love, therefore only that show would come out on top.
