Look at it this way: Fox premiered "Family Guy" after the SUPER BOWL. You can't get a better premier than that. Contrary to popular belief, Fox promotes the shit out of "Family Guy". I watch less than 2 hours of Fox a week yet I am still burdened by seeing several "Family Guy" promos a week. The show was never any good, and has never got good ratings, yet Fox has kept it on the air for 3 years. They've given it chance after chance after chance, and the show just can't "put it's money where it's mouth is" so to speak. There comes a time when you have to stop blaming the network (a network that's given the show more support than the good shows they've canceled like "Undeclared") and blame the people who make such a crappy show. -------------------------------- "That's the worst reverse-acting I've ever seen!" -Sam Raimi

Oh yeah, that's brilliant. Post-Super Bowl premiere, then don't show it again until over 3 months later. (April 11.) Then all the time slot changes, etc. As for promotions, I've seen much more in the past few weeks -- after they've decided to cancel it, of course.

Yeah, I never understood the logic in that. As if FOX just didn't get a s__t for the series as long as it had something else to ride the gravy boat for them, still surprised they let Futurama on for the ride otherwise, though reduce it to a 7 PM Sunday slot later on.
Still, from the pilot episode, It still cracks me up to see that "Just One Gun" joke. Too bad Fox probably wasn't laughing then.
Leave it to them to decide what to do with the remaning ashes of said cancelled show. They just don't have a heart at all. They're trying to make up for the damage they've done, but they've buttered their bread and they'll have to make out in it!
Domo Arigatoo Gozaimasu!
Wait a sec...didn't they only cancel undeclared's last 8 shows of the season...that doesn't mean that they won't be picked up...and beside, this prick was just looking for a reaction, not an intelligent debate. Justin
I heard that they are going to run andy richter controls the universe, see how it does, then pick whatever does better, undeclared or andy richter. Hopefully they do pick up undeclared for another season. It was a pretty decent show. Then again, in the FOX language, "pretty decent show" actually means "doomed to be cancelled".

That's odd, I thought Family Guy was my favorite show. But it turns out, according to our friend here that it "was never any good". I stand corrected then. All that time I've spent in front of the tv laughing at the misadventures of the clan Griffin must have been a waste. How dare I enjoy it..if only I'd devoted my energy to something worthwhile instead, like letting my life be consumed by an obsessive hate campaign for a tv show.

Your so pro-FOX I wonder if you work for them...
Hold on! "Undeclared"'s been canceled?! WHAT THE FUCK!? this isnt right. two very funny shows are off the air only because FOX wants to look more professional by showing a boxing match. I mean, I don't care if it is celebrities. Boxing as a sport sucks. It's not a sport. It's just barbarism. Same with Nascar, or whatever the fuck they call it now.
Anyway, as long as they keep Titus on the air, I have choice but to continue to watch them....bunch of WUSSY'S!! "CLOSEDOWN8" wrote in message news:[email]...
