And I don't think it being opposite Knight Rider is any help at all. I really wish they did what they did with Greys Anatomy the first 2 years and reran the episodes on Friday this season
Thats the problem with this show, NO RERUNS and you NEED reruns. They should have showed them the weeks before season 2 started so people didnt forget and new people didnt feel like they should know more than they are getting from the 2 min intro.

If they do die, its because of that. :cry:

You cant even watch the first season anymore online, BUT YOU CAN GET IT AT BLOCKBUSTER AND NETFILX

During the writers strike, and especially over the summer, they NEEDED to rerun this show... no question. I forgot half the stuff by the time the show came back. And I missed it too. It's all some moronic ploy to sell more DVD's. Limiting the reruns supposedly makes people wanna go out and buy them.

I think they should just work around the reruns, put them on another day of the week, and see if the ratings are better. Then move it. I really wish it was on at 9, instead of that Private Practice crap. Maybe it would have had stronger ratings...

They better not cancel the one show that i try not to miss this. So i would pay whatever i have to pay just to get this to stay on or maybe they need to switch stations. I head that "King of the Hill" was going to be cancel but Mike Jugde wants to keep going but Fox doesn't want it any more. So they might head over to ABC.

King of the Hill has been on over 10 years... I think it IS time for it to end, before it gets too stale. I love the show and all, but there's only so many times you can see Hank be right about stuff, all the while making Bobby, Peggy, or Bill look like buffoons....

Though, Judge DOES have a new animated series that's going to air on ABC... though I really think they should put it on Fox as a replacement.... ABC is likely to air half the episodes regularly, and then put the rest on in a marathon so they can contractually say they aired all the episodes.

Fox is the only non-cable station that had luck with animated sitcoms.

I don't Fox think they should put his new show on as a replacment. I'm convinced that There is some kind of conspiracy over at the FOX network where they just do not like Mike Judge and they keep screwing him over. And I would have to disagree abut Kind of the hill going off the air. Because to me if the Simpsons is still on the air and is still going to contimue to be, that I think This show has a right to still be on the sir also,

I see what you're getting at... but some shows it's nice to just end before they go on too long. And besides, the way they air KOTH, it will probably be 3 more seasons before the last episode is even shown. I mean, they did reknew KOTH the last 3 times it was up for cancellation.

Plus, well, the Simpsons just makes more money. I saw some KOTH T-shirts and an inaction figure line (which had bad accessories... Hank NOT coming with a Propane tank? Blasphemy), but not BK figures, video games, Slurpees renamed Squishies, Christmas ornaments, talking greeting cards... etc. etc. etc.

Considering how shows like The Critic and Futurama did on Fox, 10 years is an amazing accomplishment.

I would agree with you on this too. My friend is the one who told me about this and i thought hmmmm really didn't give it any thought being that i don't watch KOTH at all. I did when it was new to the air but then i was watching other shows at the time when it was coming on. But i would say if Simpsons and Family Guy are still on i would say i wouldn't see KOTH being replaced but i also just remember that there is a spin off of Family Guy coming out next year. It's about Cleaveland's family. So i don't know but it realy doesn't bother me at all. But i do hope things work out with Fox and Mike Judge.

However, I do say the new Mike Judge show may actually do well on Fox. I don't see any animated sitcom doing well on any other channel...

Sammy, Stressed Eric, Father of the Pride, Gary and Mike, and Game Over pretty much provide evidence.

But back to Daisies. Maybe if they actually run it, they'd get viewers. The season started pretty late, and so far it was twice pre-emptied for Country Music awards and a special episode of Dancing with the Stars. Heck, put it in Opportunity Knocks's time slot. See how well that does.

I know it must be doing poorly against Knight Rider, but if it's not beating that horrible New Adventures of Old Christine show.... that's terrible.

Not to mention Dilbert.Well, I can see It from a money stand point. You're right. But i just don't see Mike Judge and Fox working in the future with each other.
