Dang, I really like Glee. And I don't even know why, 'cause I don't generally care much for musicals. Except when Joss does 'em. Which he's doing with Glee. :)

Several million people more than care about TSCC.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."



Obviously you work for FOX.

"Mom, he has her chip. He has her."
John Connor,"Born To Run", TSCC EP 2x22



So... wait, how's that now? By pointing out a fact, or do Fox executives have the magical ability to alter the ratings.

Face it, your show failed for low ratings. It sucks, but it's what happened.

The rights are now up for sale, and the showrunner from TSCC is now doing a Charlie's Angels TV show. It's dead, Jim.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."



First off Troll, do you realize that the ratings for TSCC, never egot close to how low they ALWAYS were for DOLLHOUSE? Humm, did you nitice that?

"Mom, he has her chip. He has her."
John Connor,"Born To Run", TSCC EP 2x22



It's almost cute how you think I'm a troll for pointing out facts you don't want to hear.

Yes, it's ratings were somewhat better than Dollhouse - but they were still very low and the show was more expensive to produce, and was not owned by fox, and thus provided a lesser return - making it unviable to them as a series. Did you "nitice" (sic) that?

There are many factors involved, and how pissy you are over the cancellation is one of the least significant.

I love TSCC and it´s probably my second or third favourite show ever, but really, it´s not that difficult to see why it got canceled.. Low ratings, high production costs and not even owned by Fox. OF course they´ll rather support the show they own and get money from, that is also cheaper to produce. Doesn´t matter that TSCC is ten times better..

They didn't cancel the wrong show, they just cancelled the right shows in the wrong order.

Gotta disagree with you JT - I've found Dollhouse to be one of the better shows on right now. I understand it's not the popular opinion. Of course I also miss TSCC, but.....

Well if you want to go into this, i will mon ami.

See there is a very fine line between getting the best ratings there are, and fracking yourself over. Listen, Bright House networks right now is threatining to pull at leats eight FOX channels from the screen. Starting with FOX. Now, i may miss the bowl games, but that's why we have the internet right, to watch and do things for our ammusement other than tv. See, people down here don't like FOX, they keep crap on like survivor, American idol, and shit like that. When it get's pulled, if Bright House get's the balls, then i will throw a nice wittle 'ol shindig in honor of the RIGHT choice. Fuck FOX, and fuck those who think FOX makes good choices, like you sound like you do. Dill Hole.
