For a show that ran 3 seasons....

It seemed like it ran longer. When I was a kid this show was a stable part for my family to watch Sunday nights along with "In Living Color" and "Married With Children." I know the show ran for 3 seasons, I thought it ran maybe 4 or 5, but back then sitcoms made about 26 episodes to a season.

Today, sitcoms may have 13 episodes a season or even less! Such a shame that "Roc" didn't last longer or at least have a decent closure. My guess is FOX probably was going to renew the show for a 4th season but ended up canceling it. It would have been great if they did an episode mentioning about the Million Man March or even The OJ Simpson trial seeing how it would have coincide with or if there was a 4th season 1994-95 or 5th season.

Well at least we have 72 great episodes.

President of Fox got back at Roc for showing Roc being arrested in a white neighborhood. Moved it to Tuesday night and the ratings plummeted!

If that's really true it's *beep* up. I mean, "Roc" only told it like it was. I remember the show mostly coming in Sunday night's before "Married With Children."
