FUCK YOU, FOX!

Post by HemlockGrey »

Those jackasses canceled Keen Eddie! Every damn time there's a good show on their network, those fucking idiots and lowest-common-denominator whores cancel it.

And for what? 'The OC', yet another lame, melodramatic coming-of-age tale, like we haven't seen that on every sitcom, family show, soap, and drama since 1965.

And of course, I give OC one, maybe two seasons, max, before it gets canceled. FOX seems to like killing good shows, replacing them with shitty shows, killing those shitty shows(thank God) only to replace them with reality TV(FUSF_@URPOJF+__). 'Banzai', possibily the most racist, stupid, intelligence-insulting show on network television, is a perfect example.

I cannot wait until this fucking network crumbles and dies, and then I will dance on it's grave.

What was Keen Eddie again? :?

And whatever happened to Oliver Beane? It was fairly amusing...

What else has Fox crushed that it shouldn't have?

Space: Above and Beyond
The Tick (the cartoon)
Family Guy (DAMN THEM!)

Damn, did it even finish its first season? I seem to remember it started only about a month ago...

Was a fun show; I caught it a couple time and liked what I saw. Too bad the execs at FOX wouldn't know a decent show if it bit 'em in the ass. Must make room for more reality TV to "please" the masses.

You guys forgot " fuck fox " for canceling Futurama, and letting them stop making episodes of Married with Children.


I used to watch MiTM alot, but i guess i grew out of it, or just dont have time for it anymore. My friend has eastern feed satalite, and we usually have simpsons night over there on sunday. So instead of MiTM we watch Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Yaye adult swim!

When looking at their long list of casualties, including the destruction of Family Guy and the all but utter destruction of Futurama, at least we can all take comfort in the fact that they will be replaced and displaced by excellent new shows and genres, like Reality Television and "The Bachelor."

Oh wait.... That's not comforting.

But there's one thing you're all forgetting about. Something that exonerates all of that, the Simpsons.

Fox seems to want to kill anything they don't like...I wonder how they feel of letting Family Guy go.

Ah well...somehow Murdoch will pump out more garbage...maybe a gem or two. Though so far he's been killing more gems then crap(Firefly zapped, SAB canned, Futurama killed...etc)

The only episode of Keen Eddie I saw sucked shit, but in a lineup that's already almost nothing but shit it's not so bad. Just what the fuck is with Futurama, it's been canceled two or three times but now its back once more, with what I assume are the new episodes that never aired after the last canceling.

I think we could describe the current state of the Simpsons simply by rearranging a few words from 'The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire'.

I think "The Simpsons" is still as good, if not better, than it ever was. I never really cared for "Family Guy," but it was better than most of the other stuff on Fox.
Don't hate; appreciate!

RIP Eddie.

So many good shows...If I ever produce a TV show, I will burn in hell before I let it air on FOX...Especially in their "Friday night Timeslot of Doom" Killed so many potentialy interesting shows...

True, but...

Now I have been getting an ear full of pilots bitchin' and moanin' about being deployed as ground pounders. You are part of the 53rd(?) MEU, Marine Expeditionary Unit. You are deployed when needed, how needed. If you wanted to be pilots you should have joined the Air Froce. Do I make myself clear? - Lt. Col. T.C. McQueen from 'Dear Earth'

I apologise if I got some parts wrong, but that was from memory, and I have never been too good at remembering what MEU stands for :lol:

It might have been 'Letters from home' (I can't remember the title, and I can't be fucked going into my bedroom where there is a magazine synopsis of each episode), it was the one where Damphousse gets shrapnel in the eye, Wong steps in Chig dung, and has to fill out a requisition order (in triplicate) for new boots, Shane is trying to use military channels to jump ahead of the que on the video phone before her sister gives birth, but ends up trading Commodore Ross' strawberries. And the one where Nathan has to write home to tell his parents that his brother Neil is dead, and there is a documentary team following Hawkes and McQueen around 'invitros to the Corps!' :wink:

I'm pretty sure I didn't see that one (!@#$% Fox :x ) except maybe a little bit with the news group following McQueen and Hawkes.
