Everyone I know who watched this show thoroughly enjoyed it. I think this is just another reason to begin investigating the whole Neilsen ratings process, because they sure don't seem to reflect the "reality" of TV viewing that I'm aware of.
Please bring back our show. I don't understand only giving a show 4 weeks to find an audience, especially when everything else is in re-runs. And this is such a good show.
I've never seen this show, I just find it funny that people expect FOX to keep this show on-air by making fun of their network. i.e.:"FOX OMG U HVAE TEH WORST NETWORK EVAR LOLOL KEEP WONDERFALS ON BECUASE U SUX LOL"
Please, please give this wonderful little show a better chance.A little investment of confidence now will pay large dividends in the future - don't give up on it because of a shaky start.
Damn you Fox!!! You leave some of the crappiest shows ver on the air (forever eden?!?!)but cancel one of the best shows ever!! This is so typical of TV.
The networks are so overrun with reality shows and carbon copy comedies that it leaves a foul taste in even the most brainless remote-aholic's mouth. This short sighted money making trend creates an unforgiving television enviornment so that any original thought is looked upon with a scornful eye and treated with disregard as it is shoved into a death sentence timeslot and then brutally given the axe after an episode run that you could count on one hand. These shows that actually make you think,instead of sending you into a comatose-like stupor like the the never-ending Forever Eden,are a true gem in this sickening television time we live in. The trend of numbing reality shows will fade,because it is just that:a trend. But the fan following of creative,thought-inducing shows like Wonderfalls will never fade,because the fans themselves will never fade. And that is why Wonderfalls should continue on and give us crazy thinkin' types a place to run when The Bachelor on Average Joe inevitably take over the universe.
Good idea to get rid of one of the few non-crappy shows on American TV..... I don't think so! Why don't you replace it with some more dumb reality shows?
Wonderfalls is a great show, it deals with something else than violence, military, broken hearts (well, in a way) and other stupid every day stuff (that doesn't really happen anyway, so who cares).
There are few shows left which have originality, Wonderfalls is one of them. Please don't take it away from us!
Ive never even seen the show but from summaries alone Im having a lot of fun. Please dont cancel it or it will never come to my country! Thank you very much :)
I still can't see how you can make a decision like that after only 4 episodes. At the very least, you should run the whole 13 episodes that have been produced, and then make an informed decision. And yes, I too would buy it on DVD.
why couldn't fox at least put this after american idol? People are not responding to 24 or the OC as well as they did to Bernie Mac and 24 Last Season. Because of Bernie Mac's exposure after American Idol AND 24. Those two shows did actually hold their own pretty will this season. Wonderfalls should've received the same treatment.
This show is witty, creative and funny. Although there were four episodes, I never new what to expect. The character's were all fantastic. I love it. Hope someone picks it up and Fox can live with crap like Playing it Straight
hi i'm from france and i'm so sad to see that wonderfalls has been canceled . Please save this show and give them the chance because just 4 episodes it's not very good to do an opinion .
Thx and good luck to all the cast
I absolutely hate reality tv. Every network has at least three of them. Finally, I find a show that is intelligent, funny, and well acted. Please reconsider your cancellation of Wonderfalls.
Wonderfalls is part of an ever decreasing group of quality television which is sorely lacking in today's American programming. Don't do us the injustice of cancelling a wonderfull program such as this and replacing it with more drival. Set yourself apart from the pack, take the time to let this show build (not all shows are instant successes) and give us back our quality programming...
My wife and I love this show. She was furious this afternoon, and when I asked why...she broke the news. Fox has cancelled "Wonderfalls" Now we are both mad. Guess we will go back to reading or the movies.
I really enjoy "Wonderfalls" and have recommended it to all my friends. I had stopped watching Fox because I felt the quality of their shows were poor. Now that Fox has a winner, it'd be a shame for them to cancel it.
It is truly scary when a network will air mind-numbing reality tv shows that only cater to the stupidity of our society....but when they finally get something intelligent, like "Wonderfalls"...they yank it. I weep for our nation. I curse Fox.
This was one of the most visually creative, brilliantly written, best acted series I have ever seen. Yet, FOX destroyed it like so many other great shows before. I agree with many here....I am gonna boycot FOX unless they bring this back.
I really hate to say that, but Fox really make me lost all hope on this network. If Fox keep cancelling all the good shows, how they can get stable rating in the long-run?
SAVE THIS SHOW!! I love Joan of Arcadia, but to me this show is more real. It has the ideal mixture of wicked humor and divine guidance. Don't set Wonderfalls up for failure by burying it on Friday nights, schedule it so it has half a chance to develop an even larger follwing. DUH!
I just can't believe that FOX would cancel such a fresh, quirky, funny show, and after only four episodes! How is a show supposed to gain an audience when you only let it run for four episodes? Plus you moved the fourth episode to Thursday against CSI. Heeellloo! Who runs the network, a five-year-old? No, probably not; he or she would probably do a better job. Just when I thought network TV was getting a clue with shows like Scrubs and Wonderfalls, I find out the latter was canceled. Thank God for cable.
FOX is a really gay networks I mean who the hell cares about The Swan. The Wonderfalls was an awesome show and it pisses me off that I can no longer crack open a brewski on Friday night and watch the animals talk to Jaye. Damn you FOX, if it wasn't for the OC I would never watch FOX.
Are you kidding me?! It's obvious that the better choice for 'quality' television is something tasteful like My Big Fat whoever/Littlest Groom/Animals Attack,etc. Are you smelling the sarcasm? When will you people realize that not all of America has our heads up our butts,and want something witty and intelligent to watch?!
Why does Fox continually cancel good shows without giving them a chance to succeed? I absolutely love this show and can't believe that it's being cancelled without even having it on the air long enough in the same time slot. If it wasn't for Arrested Development I'd ban Fox altogether!
With Fox turning down shows just because they're even a little different, it makes me wonder if they watch their own programming. Didn't they turn down "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"? Way to go network execs. that sure saved millions of dollars from seeing your bank accounts. You can learn from your mistakes by giving "Wonderfalls" a decent time slot. It's got one of the best qualities a television show can have...it's actually entertaining. There aren't too many shows out there that can give so much into each episode, while still barely scratching the surface. To cliche or not to cliche...stop reading already and keep the show around.
This is my favorite new show. Why do you always bury the good shows on Friday, or pit them against established shows on Thursdays? You've already caused me to put BOTH our TIVO's to use on Thursdays at 9PM. This show deserves a longer run. But I suppose you would rather air a re-run of Man Vs Beast than a show with some intelligence and quality.
One the most original shows ever to broadcast and we get to see 4 episodes? Why do they even bother to produce new shows? Why string us along? Just run endless reruns of The Simpsons.
I can't believe a show this amazing was cancelled after only 4 episodes. With all the reality crap and same old tired 1/2 hour sitcoms I had practically given up on watching any new shows. And then Wonderfalls comes along and I gave it a try because of all the wonderfull reviews. And they were right! This show is exactly what television has need for a long time. If Wonderfalls isn't picked back up by FOX, or some other more deserving network, it will only reafirm my belief that the demise of quality television is near.
With many of my favorite shows going off the air I have been struggling to keep my interest in TV alive... until Wonderfalls came along! The writing is wonderfully clever, and I fell in love with these characters after the first episode. Please give this unique show another chance!
Why do you always cancel the good shows? Remember "Party of Five"? You almost cancelled that show too. It turned out to be one of your biggest hits. Don't cancel a great show. Just move it to a better time slot. Maybe instead you should fire the execs. that make these calls. They are so obviously out of touch. The first funny, creative, well written show to come down the pike in a long time. What do you do?!! You cancell it! How perfectly network of you.
One last word on the matter... "My So Called Life".
I haven't seen a show this good in sooo long. Fanastic and orignal stories and not to mention great acting!! Please give this show a chance! How do you expect to have a following to a show that could very well be a cult favorite, by only airing it 4 times and not even on the same nights. Maybe all of those stupid reality shows you seem to like have affected your brain cells. You need to wake up and realize when you have a good show on your hands!! It deserves a chance!!!
Fox, move this show to Sunday or Tuesday to give it a real chance. Other than the other Sunday night shows, Fox (or any network) has few shows worth watching. Perhaps you can give it the OC slot or let it air in he place of one of those reality show travesties.
This show is fantastic. Please give it a chance!! It has only been on Thursdays for one night which is oppisite The Apprentice and C.S.I.-hello....it's a new show-it doesn't have enough of a following to beat these shows. Move it to another night like Mondays or something.. anything!! PLEASE!!!!!
This is the best show I have ever seen in my life. That's quite a feat considering the fact that only 4 episodes aired. Critically-acclaimed usually doesn't mean squat, but this show everyone didn't just like, critics and audiences loved the hell out of it.
This show deserves a chance to build an audience.None of the truely great shows caught on right away.Take a chance,give it a good time slot and KEEP IT THERE.I guarantee it will take off!Wonderfalls is just too wonderful to lose.
Well, Fox did it again. Cancelled another great show without even giving it a chance, probably just to put another mindless "reality" show in its place. Word of advice - put people in charge that actually know what they're doing.
I've watched a couple times...it's not my favorite show in TV, but I believe you (at Fox) haven't been giving shows long enough of a chance to gain viewers...especiallywhen you're switching the show from day to day.
