And only if you like it! I wanna see how many people on this board actually enjoy the show...
I'm one of them! I think it's so funny, and I can't wait to see more episodes. It's just picking up... you've gotta start small to get big!
It's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.
Well, it doesn't really matter if a few of you like it or not (and judging by the horrible ratings there are just a FEW of you) but this mess of a show is canceled, dead and buried. Sorry.

Sorry to burst your 'I get off on shows being canceled' bubble, but it isn't canceled yet. It's returning in June.
shareI very much liked the show actually!!! and the presentation style of it... certainly to me it beats "The Goode Family" which is the only other recent cartoon show to come on.
shareI like it. It's witty and intelligent.

i liked it.. and was looking forward to seeing more episodes... :(
shareI like it a lot. I've watched each episode at least 4 times and I'm still picking stuff up. I find myself quoting lines amongst friends. That's the true mark of a worthy show to me.... I honestly don't 'GET' all the hate for this show. It's not bad at all, and is getting better every episode. It's only had 4 shows!
shareI like this show! What drew me to it was that I love all the cartoons already on FOX Sunday nights, so I figured I'd like this one too. Plus, the previews seemed funny, and most important, I love everyone doing the voices. I'm a huge SNL fan, so all these people voicing these characters I knew had humor in their interpretations.
I think it's a really funny show. I hope it lasts. I think people are always too cynical. When a new show comes out there's always a hundred haters ready to say it sucks before the first commercial. I think it's silly. It's like, "Oh really network, you WANT me to LIKE this show? Well then I WON'T!! Even if it means missing out on a good laugh. Take that, TV!" It's downright juvenile. Don't get me wrong, to each his own and all, but I'd bet that a lot of the haters probably never even saw a whole episode.

i thought it was a great show!! The first 2 episodes started kind of slow and after that, it picked up and was freakin hilarious!!
"What does high score mean? New high score, is that bad? What does that mean? Did I break it?
I love it. The show has some killer humor that feels very fresh to me, like the "Way to go, George!/Horrible... way to go, George!" bit, made me laugh so hard.
I LOVE SDSU!
I LOVE THIS SHOW! Just like "Arrested Development" every viewing reveals another joke that you missed before. Which is unfortunate because that means most idiots won't "get it" and give up after a couple of episodes just like what happened to "AD".

I dig it. Maybe the most ridiculously self-referential show ever.
"Love is just a lie/Happens all the time"--The Magic Numbers
Yeah the meta-humor is out of control in this show... It's very subtle and usually deliver lightning quick but they take so many stabs at FOX it's criminal.
I just noticed one the other day while re-watching the series. It's in the Math Lab episode (which would have been the 5th to air before it was originally pulled). Sue says (while trying to figure out a way to show the parents they are actaully doing something), "Well maybe we can find one really scary problem, and say all the kids have it". To witch Ennis replies, "teachers who don't care"... and almost before he finishes his sentence Helen slips in (almost inaudible at first) "Low Simpsons retention".
That is exactly what they were being criticized for in the ratings after only 2 airings... That they couldn't hold 'The Simpsons' audience. Ironically, the Cleveland show now shows a similar drop off but has been given another season already...
I almost died laughing when I finally picked up on what she said. Later on in the a exchange Larry refers to everything mentioned as 'made-up problems' and then seems to blast them for not advertising the show (When he makes reference to 'non-existent promos'). Perhaps a stab at them changing the time slot from 8:30 Sunday to 7:00 Sunday without mentioning it to viewers... naturally if you move a show earlier in the schedule and don't tell the people who want to watch it, you will get terrible ratings. Not the shows fault though. I can remember tuning in at *:30 that day and just being so angry at them. I had missed the show because they put it on at 7:00 and didn't tell anyone. They have time and time again proven themselves to be completely inept on every level... Don't get me into the ridiculous guitar-shredding robot that is somehow the networks NFL mascot... and the ridiculous gopher that is all over their NASCAR broadcasts. This channel presents itself as one for halfwits and children. This show doesn't appeal to the lowest common denominator so it's not surprising it would never work on FOX.
This is the same thing they did to Family Guy that originally caused it to fail, and it's the same thing they did to Arrested Development. FOX is a proven show killer, but it seems as thought they had it in for this show from the very get go. They gave it less than a chance to succeed and actaully contributed quite nicely to it's ultimate demise. I'm starting to think it was deliberate... There were contract disputes early on that could have soured the network to the show. It seems like a power struggle situation to me, with the network ultimately pulling rank.
God news is Comedy Central has realized this is a valuable property and is trying to buy the rights to air the re-runs. The Jokes ripping FOX will connect even better in that situation.
It doesn't look like we will get any more new episodes at this point, but Comedy Central airing the repeats at least keeps that door open. It's a shame. This show is smart and funny while still being low-brow on the surface. Very unique.
I like it, and want to see more of it. Don't cancel the show FOX!
shareAfter a clunky start it's triumphant return has brought in some great episodes, whilst not perfect I do laugh out loud more than most TV at the moment, and that's all I ask for a show packed with great talents in front of and behind the microphones.
Signa...? No, we use Chip and PIN now.
i think its decent
I like it enough to watch it over SNL even though SNL has been pretty funny lately. I just don't see why Fox can't air it before the repeat of "Talk Show", I just don't like it, let alone it's repeats from last year (did that show get canceled?).
It's almost like Fox doesn't care for the show at all, so they are trying to kill it ABC style. (I mean, their claim for it being too vulgar for the old slot... I don't see how it's worse than the Cleveland Show or American Dad when they air it in that time slot, let alone Family Guy)

a great show but audience dont give it enough time for them to understand the jokes
this is all FOX fault since canceling Arrested Development lets all hope Comedy Central pick up this for at least one more season just to see the ratings on cable
Comedy Central bring back Futurama maybe Sit Down Shut Up
Great show!
Very consistent (which I find is very hard to say about many modern comedies) I get a good number of laughs from each episode!
I think the show's a howl. I can't imagine why people detest it, especially if those people are "Arrested Development" fans.

I like it. The first couple of episodes were average, but the show really seems to be getting its gears rolling with the recent ones. If FOX gives it a chance it could become a very memorable show.
