*stabs FOX in the head*

I just don't understand. I don't. Fox has already canceled 'Drive'. HOW CAN THEY TELL ANYTHING BY 4 EPISODES!!! HOW???

They can't. I don't believe it. I can't believe any amount of numbers can be calculated that fast. How exactly do they expect the word to get out to people?? Do they not remember a little show called 'X Files' that no one really watched for a year and then it MADE THEM! Or how about say...oh I dunno, FIREFLY that they canceled and now has a powerful cult following?

I just don't get it.

Poor Nathan. He seemed so excited too. And Tim. Oh heck, everyone. I was looking forward to seeing all the Jossverse/Minearverse people pop up. What a frakking waste of their time and ours. Someone just give Whedon and Minear their own network and at least we'll have one channel with quality programs.

Ugh, just another show that I'm sure I will enjoy on DVD later and then be bitter about every time I see the FOX logo.

Wha--? This makes no sense. You'd think once they promo a show and it gets to the point where a few eps are in the can, it would just make financial sense to stick with it for a bit. Do they really get more advertising money for whatever lame re-runs they'll show in that slot? Because that's the only reason I can think of to pull it.

Why doesn't Tim Minear market his stuff to the sci-fi channel? Or anywhere else? Does he?

I don't know why Minear keeps working with Fox. It makes no sense to me. And why would a tv company put so much money into a show and just give up on it? very frustrating. :(

I couldn't believe it when i heard the news. I had expected it to get canceled after its 1st season but not this early! :/ I mean four episodes - thats no indication of how well it would fare! Like you said look at Firefly, or the X-Files or even back in the day the Brady Bunch (no comparison for quality but that show was & is still popular & had pretty bad ratings for its first season...). F**king FOX.

it just makes no sense! Oh, and to put it up against HEROES after that show has been on break...what did they expect? Did they expect a show on it's 3rd episode to pull fans from a show wrapping up it's season run??? Duuuuh.

Fox needs to die.

yes...yes they do.

I wish Nathan or Tim would post on their respective blogs/sites. I want to hear from them.
