Only one season


Did this bomb then? Was it cancelled or only ever planned to be one season?

Fox cancelled it due to low ratings. Then it won an Emmy.

Loved it when it came out, but as jokebox said, the rating were low, so Fox cancelled it. The show was ahead of its time obviously, look at all the stars that came out of it.

Also, I think the production costs were the main reason it was cancelled. If you look at those skits/sketches, they are well done. And that costs money. The ratings were low, so Fox cancelled it.

It's a shame, agreed, am really digging watching it; it makes me wish that I was old enough to have watched it when it originally aired so that I could understand the sketches better. It helps being able to remember the time period, but seeing as I was 5 at the time, I only cared about kid stuff....
