I predicted this, and I apologize. If I like a show, it's cancelled. I have to give FOX some credit for airing the show in the first place, but yanking it after 4 weks? THANKS FOR NOTHING. This was one of the smartest, funniest shows I have seen in years and it's done. Makes me really want to jump in and support new and original shows, you know? Television is getting more and more like "Max Headroom" everyday. Hey, Fox! Let's get another 6 hours of "Idol" on every week! We're not smart enough for much else!
What's with this rumour that decision making executives at Fox are really just a bunch of monkeys? Well, I believe it!
Don't mess with Nick D.
GO GO White Sox!!
Enough already! You've got to start giving scripted (non-reality) shows a chance. What would have happened if Seinfeld was pulled off its first year? Seinfeld started off with terrible ratings. As did Cheers. As did the Simpsons.
We CRAVE intelligent, witty, thoughtful programming. We DEMAND to have some say in what shows are available for us to watch.
Me and my wife watched Wonderfalls and we are 37 and 29 respectively. We are asking you to bring it back. This is your last chance to do something right before we boycott your channel. First Firefly, now Wonderfalls...and for what, "Midget Bachelor"? Get a clue Fox, the people want clever, smart shows not crap.
Hi, I'm a young male with tons of disposable income. Wonderfalls is my favorite show, and it keeps me riveted enough that I watch the commercials to make sure I don't miss any few seconds at the show's return.
Now, it seems, I'm going to have to lose even more trust in television and direct my attention to media where clever, interesting, insightful, and side-splittingly funny productions survive long enough at least to be appreciated.
I've been telling all my friends to watch this show, but they don't all hop-to immediately, so give this show a chance.
My daughter & I discoverd this wondeful show accidentally (not because it got any promotion from Fox) and then I accidentally learned of the switch to a new night. A lot of my friends did not, and missed seeing it on Thursday. And you wonder why it didn't get ratings? NOBODY KNEW ABOUT IT! I am DONE with Fox (first Firefly, now Wonderfalls).
Thanks for all the support everyone.
It's important that, while Fox isn't going to listen to the viewers above the advertisers, we should let them know that they are making a huge mistake in cancelling this show without giving it a fighting chance.

Fox, you seriously need to stop cancelling good shows and putting crappy reality shows like "Playing It Straight," "Forever Eden" & "Joe Millionaire/My Big Fat Waste of Time/And the Shortest Groom Ever!" on the air.
This is a wonderfully creative show. It has the potential to be another Northern Exposure with all of that show's quirky characters. Give this show a chance.
I really like this show, though I can't always put a finger on why that is exactly. But I've been looking forward to more of the show and reaching an understanding of how great this show can be.
Networks really need to get a hand to the pulse of their viewing public. All we ask is that you give shows to DEVELOP a fan base. Not every good show will have outstanding ratings right out. Soon people will get the picture and stop supporting your new shows all together. Who wants to be sucked into a series that will just be cancelled?
FOX, you're unbelievable. I cannot begin to imagine how your programming people determined that it was good business to cancel one of the most creative, original shows to appear in years, and to replace it with another piece of worthless "reality" junk. If this were my compnay, people wouild be getting fired right now.
Jeez. I love this show! Why do they always cancell the good shows and leave alot of the crap on air? TV is becoming less and less enjoyable. If it came to DVD, I'd surely buy it.
A clever, funny, well-written show like 'Wonderfalls' is exactly what television needs. Keep this, dump that 'The Swan' stuff instead- reality TV is insulting our intelligence.
Gee, Fox, You killed another (firefly) show in the same time slot. You getting the impression that the target audience might not be watching TV then. I really liked this show and I would like to see the rest of it. Are you willing to learn how air shows at times convienent for the target viewer (not friday night)?
After watching the first episode you just want more and more, great show. It would be a shame to lose one of the few original high quality tv shows coming out today.
Please keep the show. Give it time to grow. for example buffy the vampire slayer didn't do good its first season but it became one of the best shows out there and i think wonderfalls could"can" be the best!
I'm tired of all these reality shows.
C'mon Fox, give Wonderfalls a chance to grow and find an audience--it is one of the best shows on TV right now and moving it to a different night every week or outright cancelling it probably won't help in that regard.
Just when i thought that TV has reached its lowest level with all those stupid, dime-a-dozen reality shows...then along came WONDERFALLS! It's one of THE BEST in a really long time. It's quick-paced, interesting, inspiring, quality writing, etc... One would think that FOX got it right this time but NO! What the heck is wrong with you, FOX? Keep this show running!
I wondered how a network that has shows like "The Swan" and "The Littlest Groom" could actually be the home of such an incredibly smart and thoroughly entertaining piece of work as "Wonderfalls". I guess some things really are too good to last.
You didnt give this show a chance. how can you build an audience when you keep moving the schedule and you put it up against csi and apprentice, shame on you fox!!!
After airing only 4 episodes? DUH doesn't make sense. And yet having all produced and available to air, DUH doesn't make sense. Makes me wonder if it was cancelled because of some ridiculous grudge the network have over the show crew. WONDERFALLS was simply THE BEST show I've seen in a very very long time. UBER quality acting, scripting and production. Please give it a second chance. Thank you.
I have no hope that Fox will realize that cancelling this show is a mistake... I only hope those who make the show see this petition and release the rest of the series on DVD
This show is great. This proves FOX will always be a second rate network for cancelling it. I hope another network picks this up. Please release the first season on DVD.
It broke my heart when I heard this got canned! Finally a Really Good Show to look foward to, Innovative and Fresh, It was the Super Cool Show of Spring! Please release this on DVD, I will buy a set and Cherish it always! I LOVE WONDERFALLS!!!!!
Only 4 episodes given a chance. I live in the uk and i've only had chance to see the first episode and was really looking forward to seeing the rest of them.
Fox (like the WB) is truly run by shitheads. And as a person from the UK - i apologise for our creation Pop Idol (known as American Idol in the states) and the like(just wait until you get the wonderful How Clean is Your House? - where people actually go and clean someones house for them) which appears to be ruining any chance that a program as good as Wonderfalls deserves.
No wonder Fox have such a poor reputation when they have no idea of how to market a show that has had rave reviews then blame their failure on the show and cancel it...better to cancel the Fox board and their marketing dept.
This show is fantastic! The reviewers have said that it only gets better! If it stays on Thursday night it's going to get killed! E-mail FOX and get it put back on Friday.
THAT IS NOT FUNNY! This show was so good. 4 episodes and each one better than the last. What are you doing to my favourite shows, Fox? Futurama, then Firefly, now this!!
"I wonder wonder wonder why the Wonderfalls" fell?
Please don't cancel this show. I just found it, and then right, and I mean RIGHT after, my FIRST veiwing found out it was canceled. Please, at least play all the epps and see if it will catch on. I bet it will. It speread to me by word of mouth. Give it just a little more time. You already made and paid for the epps. PLEASE!
"Oh, please say it ain't so, say it ain't so!!" This was really one of the most cleverly done shows I've seen in awhile. It's a shame that a good show like this has been cancelled. FOX really needs to bring Wonderfalls back! I LOVED this show!
I cannot believe you would cancel such a wonderfully brilliant show...oh wait, you're FOX. Sorry, I thought you might actually have some intelligence. Bring it back, and maybe I'll still watch your network. For at least one hour, anyway.
This is one of the funniest and most original things I've seen on TV for ages. Fatal mistake of putting it on on a Thursday night was the kiss of death.
