[QUOTE="Ulrick, post: 602259, member: 775"] Man, this thread is a little depressing. I like Firefly. It isn't the best show in the world, but its a good show with a great storyline. I noticed that a lot of it was setting up for something spectacular, something jaw-dropping, but now I'll never know. It seems like everybody on that ship has their secrets, and it sucks we won't ever find out the truth. But, its Fox. And Fox seems to like to cancel decent shows after they've put them in lousy timeslots. Here in Central Iowa, Firefly was on Friday Nights at 7pm. Not the best timeslot, and I knew from the beginning it would be a struggle because some other shows that I like were put there and died. I just don't understand it. Good 1st season shows get put in crappy timeslots on Fox. Then its sink or swim with little promotion from the network. Some other examples include: Space: Above and Beyond -- here it was on Sundays at 6pm...so that way basketball could run overtime into it...constantly. Brimstone -- Some might disagree, but I did like this show. Especially because it came before.... Millenium -- This show was scary but cool. But at least it made it to season 2 before Fox dumped it...which kinda screwed up season 2 a little bit because Chris Carter thought the show would be cancelled after the first season so he had to hastily get a plot going. Then there was American Gothic, but I can't remember if it was on Fox or not. To sum it all up: "Grrrrrrr" :mad: Ulrick [/QUOTE]
