Wait, FOX destroy a show??
Why would they let that... oh yeah, it's FOX!!! I'd never even heard of this show until I saw a marathon of it on SCI-FI, then came on here to learn something about it. From what everyone has been saying, it was on FOX for about half of the episodes made, then it got, shall we say, misplaced, then SCI-FI eventually picked it up. FOX has had some good shows that it has just destroyed for whatever reason. Take this show, which seems like a good Friday night show (I don't know when it was originally on), and think about similar spooky shows that the network for some reason hated and still picked up: American Gothic (at least, I think this was on FOX), Freakylinks, Beyond Belief, Firefly, The Lone Gunmen, etc, etc. Between time shifts, night changes (Bernie Mac), that lovely word "hiatis" (Boston Public), and line-up changes (anyone else think The X-Files should have just left well enough alone and ended before they got rid of Mulder?), I just don't don't understand why FOX picks up these shows, or in the case of The X-Files, kept them on so long (I love the X-Files, I just hated what they did with it). Or other shows that it screws around with (Futurama, Oliver Beene, anything else that got destroyed due to being preempted by sports). It's like the executives at FOX have a big roulette wheel and put bets on how long they can keep certain shows on the air with the changes they make. As I mentioned on the Quintuplets board, I've learned to not get too attached to a show that airs on FOX.
