"Sadly my favorite, and hopefully your favorite show is being cancelled... I know a person in a very high position for FOX Broadcasting (cannot name him) and he says that the rumors are all true. Ms. Gail Berman stated that "for now Family Guy is cancelled, but if it reaches over a 4.5 for the next 4 weeks it will be picked up for the fourth season." Mr. Sandy Grushow complied. Then Ms. Berman said "Thousands of letters have been recieved, pleading, asking, and downright begging us to keep Family Guy on the air. (She then read one of the letters). If this keeps us and the ratings stay over 4.5 then we will (for consumer reasons) keep Family Guy on the air." They then went on to discuss the future of Futurama and Dark Angel. Whoever is reporting that "The Simpsons" might be cancelled should check their brain for tumors because it has been picked up till the 15th season. This is whats happening people... I cannot tell you this persons' name (for safety reasons), but I guarentee you that this is whats going to happen. We need to send more letters, and keep Family Guy over a 4.5 share. Let's do it! We can win this thing!"
