Why did they cancel Muppets Tonight so quickly?

Oh, man! I was so hoping Geordi would just breakdown and cry right there! Just get overly emotional! He cried, and if you look real closely, Levar Burton did an excelent job on protraying his emotions, but, the camera angle they chose was just.... You couldn't tell!

I cried too.

Hey, speaking of "doing well", how's Star Trek Nemesis doing over there? It is doing awful over here, for various reasons. I liked it, but it's not doing well over here. Doing well there?

I haven't followed it, but from what i gather it's doing very well - it's on a channel that shows things like Stargate and Deep Space 9 so it fits in pretty well.

Er, I think you're thinking of Enterprise, Luke. Nemesis is the new Next Generation movie.

Thanx, though. It's good to see I'm not the only person who actually likes Enterprise. (the majority of the US population hates teh show. The only reason most fans watch it is because they're loyal.)

it'll be ok as soon as it finds it's niche...the writing just has to develop a tad!

I cry at the end of STar Trek Nemesis, the only other movie I cry at was REquiem for a Dream. As for Nemesis it doing all right not as good as the prequals did in the box office but... that because of Lord of the RIngs. It made 35 mil so far with a 70 mil budget. I has 35 mil. left to go to break even.

2 The music is all so modern. Come on, rap + muppets? Terrible combi. And ok, no more electric Mayhem, ok. But at least show us who the new band members are!!!!!

3 To much story, to little act. While there is an act on the stage, you see Clifford and Rizzo doing something! Hey, I want to see the act!!!

4 The audience. That `whoooo` at the beginning, when Clifford comes on stage. Yek!

That's not why they cancelled it, those are definitely issues some people had with the show. All good points too!
