had they been smart and aired it in the Fall on Monday nights, I think this could have been as big as Ally McBeal was in its heyday.
As many others already posted, this is a shame, and a scary time if you are a TV fan..
I love this show! One of the best I've seen in a long time. FOX, give a new show at least a chance to prove itself before cancelling it. Remember X-Files? Remember Seinfield? Both of these shows had poor ratings when they started, but look at them now.
Space: Above and Beyond. Firefly. Wonderfalls. Great shows you pulled the plug on. I regularly watched them. And now, I'm going to stop watching the Simpsons, 24, and King of the Hill. Tell that to your advertisers. Wonder what's on USA?
I am never watching Fox again. Idiots didn't even give it a chance. I'll stick to my dvd collection from herein... I hope tv goes to the toilet and that dvd kills every network station.
Please, leave the show on the air in a half-decent timeslot and see what happens before making rash decisions. Moving the show to a different time each week makes it difficult to watch consistently.
Fox TV: You are training me to stop watching your shows. First Firefly, now Wonderfalls. At least Firefly had somewhat of a chance. Why do you bother making a new show when you only give it 3 chances to prove something? And what would Wonderfalls have to have done for you to not cancel it? What a bunch of mulroons you are.
this is a really intriguing show that needs to be given a chance somewhere on tv. fox obviously can't be trusted to nurtue quality shows, but maybe another network is looking for a quirky drama...
Was quickly filling the spot abandoned by the X-files years ago. What a witty, fun show. Why are you getting rid of it? Not all of us are entertained souley by reality tv which seems to be all your network has to offer. PLEASE give this show a chance!
You (Fox) never gave the show a proper chance debuting on friday nights. Comeon give the show a second chance to air the completed episodes and go willing a dvd in the future.
I hope the show comes back. I'm sick of the idiots at Fox cancelling great shows like they change their socks. Try cancelling some of those retarded reality shows (Forever Eden)
What the heck?
Smart show..give it a chance...It's way better than anything else premiering right now and it's much smarter than Joan of Arcadia. MUCH SMARTER! If nothing else, sell the rights to HBO. They could use the help right now.
Again a blow for intelligent genuinely funny television, That Forever Eden remains running (I would hate to be the editor on that show struggling so hard to create some sense of drama from the truly inain 15 minutes I watched) and original programming like wonderfalls is cancelled just makes me feel sad for what the demographic reports indicate about the TV consumption of the general population. Please give this show a chance, how bout sunday at 8:30 and replace bernie mac, it would fit in well in this slot like that 70s show used to build a fan base amongst allready popular television. I agree too on Arrested Development, please let it continue.
Fox is fast becoming the go-to network for smart shows hidden on the schedule and given no chance to find an audience. God help us if Wonderfalls really does join Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Undeclared, and The Tick in their growing dustbin of dead classics. Move it to FX and let it run in shortened bursts a la The Shield and Nip/Tuck but please don't take Jaye Tyler away from us.
4 episodes and a time change are not enough to determine if a show is a success or nt. I am intrigued by what I have seen so far. It would be nice if a quality show was given a chance to prove it's worth before being shelved.
Wow.. I found out about this cancellation while randomly surfing, and what a heartbreak it was. Wonder Falls is one of the few TV shows I can stand to watch these days. It's insanely stupid of them to cancel it so quickly.
First Skin, now this. If Arrested Development or Tru Calling gets cancelled, I think I'm going to go crazy. I hope that we at least get a DVD box set with all of the unaired Wonderfalls episodes.
I'm not wanting Fox to save this show. I'm wanting some other network that CARES about things like good TV to save this show.
Hello, USA Network? How about you Sci-Fi Network?
the cast, the story, the characters all are great and original. Thats why fox want nothing to do with it. FOX your going down!!! I will never watch fox again if they cancell WF(or buy your DVDs) the person in charge of this stuff at FOX needs firing, then a good beating.
This is one of the only shows on t.v where you actually got some relatable characters.Damn it just sucks fox cancelled another great show. Save wonderfalls!
I can't beleive that one of the most entertaining shows of the year is being cancelled. Doesn't a show of this quality deserve a chance? Please reconsider... KEEP THE SHOW ON!!
Why am I not surprised? Yet another great show cancelled by FOX. Why is it, that the moment a show comes along that is funny, unique, and clever, FOX can not cancel it fast enough. Is FOX scared of loosing it's low-brow image? There are plenty of other FOX shows I can't stand so why don't you cancel those? Wonderfalls is the first new show on FOX that I actually enjoy. Cancel it and you will only succeed in loosing one of the best shows on t.v. and piss a lot of people off by doing so.
I knew that this show was doomed when the half-wits at Fox moved it to Thursdays. For such a well-written, fantastically-acted program to get ZERO support from the network that green-lit it in the first place is unfathomable. If SOMEONE at the networks would actually give programs like WONDERFALLS a chance to find an audience, and not relegate it to the ratings disaster that is Thursday night (except for CBS and NBC, that is), we wouldn't lose shows like this, and maybe networks like Fox wouldn't have to depend on programming to morons and those suffering from short attention spans. It's no wonder I rarely watch network TV anymore... you don't see HBO or SHOWTIME padding their line-ups with extereme makeover and gross-out shows, do you? With practices like these, Fox would have killed a show like DEAD LIKE ME...
WONDERFALLS didnt come in a box labeled reality TV so FOX being unimaginative,and uncreative didnt really want anything to do with it so they put on on the air just to cancel it. shame on you.
Why did anyone think that a critically acclaimed show would last on the Fox network? It didn't have sex or explosions, so it won't appeal to Fox execs. Face it, the television biz has turned into the music biz. Brainless and repetitive.
I've had the worst year ever, then a show begins called WONDERFALLS. watching it makes me and my whole family smile, and FOX is taking that away from me. I hate you FUX..I mean FOX
Being a twenty-something i could totally warm up to the characters in the show. this is by far the most wonderful, hilarious, warm,captivating,strange, witty, creative piece of work i've seen in a long time and it would be a huge, huge mistake to cancel it. please bring back Wonderfalls!
you take a great show like Wonderfalls off the air??? for what another stupid ass reality show?? look out your windows (see reality) then come back in and do your jobs of making good creative TV and no more Retarded of Eden or Raping the Straights or what ever its called. You FOX execs probably just laugh this stuff off but my new mission in life is to make sure FOX dies.
Although I haven't quite grasped the talking animals, I think the show is worth at least a few more episodes... finish the season off at least, for those of us who enjoy it.
One of the best new shows I have seen in a very long time. It's so original and unique! Please do not cancel it without even giving it a chance. It's one of the few FOX shows that my whole family enjoys watching. I will be unbelievably disappointed if FOX cancels yet another great show.
OK thats it! FOX is evil, when they moved it thursdays after TRU I thought they were giving it its due but no! FOX has shown that they suck once again by cancelling what could have been the best show on FOX next to the Simpsons. Now FOX asses are thinking thats OK we'll make a mint on the DVD releases so fans can see the unaired sodes, and as much as I'll miss the simpsons I am now boycotting FOX and I know about 500 people that are too, congrats FOX you just lost about 10,000 viewers, you bring so many good shows to TV just to kill them, you are the devil(collectivly)
Four episodes? Why didn't FOX just let Bryan Fuller and co. take the show to another network where it might have actually gotten some support, if they didn’t actually plan on letting the show grow and get an audience?
Wonderfalls is one of the few brightspots of this rather dreary TV season, and it is nothing less then a catastrophe for it to be cancelled. I realize that the situation is probably hopeless, but I will say that if there was justice in this world, Wonderfalls would not be cancelled. The humour, wit, and poignancy of this show will be greatly missed.
Think of all the great shows that FOX has brought to us only to have them cancelled before people had a chance to get interested - FireFly, Family Guy, Futurama - just to name a few. I can't believe they are dumb enough to let another great show slip away because they didn't get instant ratings. What a surprise... put a new show up against a highly rated show on another network and expect to pull a huge audience... D'OH. FOX execs are doing their Homer Simpson impression again.
What do we expect from an age where what passes as good television is gay people trying to trick straight people into a date for money... yeah, 'cuz that's reality.
Keep our Wonderfalls alive, please!
