If it was my network, and if the first two episodes are any judge of the future quality of this show, I would give it an entire first season, then see if it could continue. If they could continue at this calibre of humour, I would give it as long as they wanted. Alas, it's on Fox (why would any producer allow Fox to air their show? Seriously!), and it's good, therefore it's doomed. Wonderfalls got 4, Firefly got 11 or 12....I say 4-6 for Free Ride.

DON'T GET *beep* HOOKED!

Yea, Don't bother watching it. Let's all try and give FOX such crappy ratings for all their lousy sitcoms so they HAVE to take back Futurama.
Curse them for ever taking Futurama away.

Of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

[–] Andrea88 18 years ago

goaway_91 your not wrong. Face it, Fox does this to everyone. It is sick and twisted and they must be stopped! But besides Fox what is up with the merge of UPN and WB. It is gonna be called WC.... Jesus.... Thats all I can say is Jesus.

Just a little nitpicking, it'll actually be called the CW network. A combination of CBS (owner of UPN) and Warner (owner of WB) obviously. Though I hardly see why a name change matters. The network will be made better, surely that can't be a bad thing.

It can be a bad thing because the major media markets are in too few hands already. This means fewer people control what everyone sees. It also means less competition which will likely reduce quality in the long run.

I think that not only is the show terrible, the lead characters are lacking in both realism and charisma, and on top of all that, Fox already has another improvised sitcom in development that's almost identical to 'Free Ride,' so I'm thinking they've already seen the light and are preparing to jump ship on this P.O.S.

Fox? They'll give it 4 episodes if it's good. 4 seasons if it sucks.

I think you may be surprised. The pilot and second episode impressed me, which is hard to do.

reply

[–] bwc05 18 years ago

the show looks painfully bad. I give this, as well as "The Loop" a mere 3 episodes. I can't believe Fox is expecting this load of crap to do better than "Arrested Development"

Josh Dean is so incredibly funny and talented that I really hope this show does well.

I think it looks kind of funny, but I doubt it lasts long. As stated, FOX has a rep of cancelling shows right away.

reply

[–] GuitarGod2005 18 years ago

I say 2-4 if they're lucky.

Fox either has genius, or they got bombs. And they haven't had luck with their recent comedies.

Not only is it on FOX, but it's a pretty bad show in the first place- I give it three episodes.

[–] TBBucs97 18 years ago

I just saw the first episode. It won't see a second season.

[–] jay_cee18 18 years ago
