Legal shows never survive on FOX


Did you notice that all the court/lawyer shows never survived on FOX?

Fox had one sucessful legal drama "Ally McBeal" and it lasted 5 seasons!

Fox had the very short lived comedy/drama "Head Cases" back in 2005. I heard that 6 episodes were made, but Fox cancelled the show after 2 episodes due to awful ratings and terrible reviews.

I really don't know why Fox pulled the plug on "Justice." That was the best show in the 2006-2007 season! The crew of the show should have put "Justice" on (the intellegent) CBS instead of (lousy) Fox. "Justice" would have a great chance of survival on CBS.

Fox had a Bruckhemer production before way back in 2003 called "Skin." I never watched "Skin," but I heard that it was cancelled after 3 episodes do to lousy ratings, but it has excessive advertising back then.

Fox wanted to be in the Bruckheimer business again by buying "Justice." A few months later, Fox had to put it in the garbage. I think that this is the only Bruckheimer production on Fox that aired beyond 3 episodes before its (unexpected) cancellation. "Justice" deserves some credit?! Fox should have left "Justice" alone instead of moving it time slot after time slot. I think that you will never see another legal show on Fox again.

I agree Fox should left Justice alone instead of moving around. It was one of the best 2006-2007 and Victor Garber was great as Ron Trott.

Happy Birthday Victor.
