A great show, first one I've EVER tried to adjust my schedule around EVER.
Sad that you expect such a clever show to be a huge hit in a few weeks. If NBC had cancelled Seinfeld and Friends because of low first week ratings we be missing to really good shows all these years.
Use your head FOX. Think outside the box. We don't all like 1000 and 1 "reality" shows!!
"Wonderfalls" is a terrific show that Fox dumped in two of the worst time slots imaginable. What did they expect?!? Why not put the show on Mondays????? UPN interested? The WB?? SciFi??? At least give the fans a full season set DVD.
Please don't cancel this wonderfull show! No wonder it couldn't find an audience due to its lack of promotion and poor time scheduling. For the past few weeks, I can't wait to see a new episode. It's been years since I've been this excited about a television show. PLEASE DON"T CANCEL WONDERFALLS!
I'm coming to expect this from Fox. They know the show is good, they know people will grow into it, they know its well written, well produced and well... great. But they will cancel it. Because it costs who knows how many tens of thousands of dollars more than say "The Littlest Groom 2". With a premise as goofy and charming as Wonderfalls',
There was no hope that it would be an instant ratings hit. Then again neither was the X-files, which had the same Friday timeslot until it was moved to Sundays where it killed the competition.
Anyone who hasn't yet checked out Wonderfalls is missing a show that is just pure magic. Smart & silly fun. As well written as it is performed, with rich characters, a sharp subtle wit, and one of my favorite comedic television performances in recent years, in Jaye.
Run this for two season and I gurantee people will not only warm up to it, but pre-order the DVD releases. This show could run the media circuit on the charming performance of the lead alone. The networks are constantly stabbing in the dark for SOMEthing new, SOMEthing that works. It's once in a hundred, in a thousand that they get it right. Somehow this show just FEELS right. Everything clicks. Cancelling this show is tantamount to spitting at a miracle.
All I can suggets is to write to Fox. And make sure they hear how very displeased you are about this being cancelled and The Sawn being given the greenlight. Vote with your remote control. Turn off Idol if you must.
Thank you.
This show has given me hope of finding quality programming on TV again. Finally a show that makes me laugh out loud throughout the hour. Move the day and time if you must, but PLEASE keep this show on the air. I'M BEGGING YOU!
I watch this show 'religiously', even though the move to Thursday meant that I miss CSI. I don't care. Wonderfalls rules!! Yet again a good show is cancelled, and crap stays on the air.
This was the wittiest show on TV today. It is a shame that the executives won't give the American people a chance to get involved with an amazing storyline.
Great show!!It was very interesting and funny!!One of the shows i actually stay awake for, and now fox is taking it away!!! If they don't want it another network better get it....and soon!!!!
Do not sign the DVD petition. This only encourages FOX into thinking that it can lure in people with no intention to air an entire season - only to make money with DVDs.
What a pity. Fox is making a habit of giving its best shows the Friday kiss-of-death. Fox should give this show a real time slot and a little time to grow. Maybe another (smarter) network will pick it up.
I LOVE THIS SHOW!! It's ridiculous that FOX thinks it can solve its problems by putting another LAME reality TV show in its place. If they know what's good for them they'll keep it going.
PLEASE LET WONDERFALLS STAY!!!Damn you FOX!!Your always cancelling great shows!!Who cares if no one else is watching it we want it to STAY!!Stop taking our shows away!!!!!!!
Wonderfalls was a unique show that helped us all escape from the black hole that is reality tv. I liked it because it was extraordinary and even touching, much like My So Called Life (but we know how that story goes.) I think that it should have been placed in a Monday or Tuesday night time slot, because by the end of the week, people are out in the evenings. It's such ashame that tv viewers will not be able to view this creative, witty and inspirational show. It touched on everything - family life, romance, revenge, careers, destiny - things that I thought mattered in this day and age. However, I won't despair. We'll all get to watch rich,spoiled, ungrateful girls make idiots out of themselves in the midwest because that's reality. How sad.
Finally something comes along actually good, something actually worth watching, something that actually makes you Happy television is there to watch.....oops guess I spoke too soon. DONT CANCEL IT!!! DONT YOU AS A STATION WANT TO FEEL THAT ATLEAST ONE OF YOUR SHOWS DOESNT MAKE YOU FEEL ASHAMED AND CHEAP?
totally unique and awesome show. I think it is stupid to put a show out there, especially one so unique and immediately expect it to thrive, give it time to prove itself!!!
An actual unique and funny show...so of course the networks cancelled. Lets hope WB or UPN get a clue and pick a quality show with an appealing cast when the can.
Wonderfalls was an excellent show with great characters, actors and imagination. I hope its creators move to a different network and blow FOX out of the water. Morons. Obscenities don't even do them justice.
(from my girlfriend as well)
This is the same thing that happened to Firefly! How DARE they!?
This series is truly one of the most clever and noteworthy of this season's freshman programming. It's quirky and unusual enough to not have enjoyed an immediate following at the outset, but how about giving it at least half a chance (meaning, airing more than just 4 episodes)? What a heartbreaking waste of the intelligence and charm of Wonderfall's writers and actors.
Fox clearly doesn't want critically acclaimed shows to succeed on it's network as demonstrated by the lack of promotion and the time slots it gives the shows. The X-Files would never have lasted had Fox aired it now.
I'm so sick of Fox canceling shows after a month. It makes me want to never watch a new show again. Next they will probably cancel Arrested Development.
Hey, keep this show going! Judging from watching only one episode, it has a novel premise that should be allowed to grow. I would like to see more of this show!
we need more original shows instead of these damn reality shows! what was fox thinking when they changed wonderfalls to the same time slot as the apprentice?
I love the show. People at FOX must be really stupid to cancel this show. This is the only show I watch on Fridays and now I have nothing to watch. Bring back Wonderfalls.
Wonderfalls is one of the best TV shows out there. It was very funny and definately original. I was shocked to hear of its canellation! Fox you shoud be ashamed. if you are going to drop a show drop the swan.
It's always a shame that the smartest and funniest shows never have a full chance to survive. TV's current wasteland is no place for great and interesting shows. It's a shame.
Maybe we need a channel called Quirk TV to handle the smart stuff, I'd be up for that.
I can't believe they cancel this original show and not any of the clones on TV. We don't need 20,000 of them, so they cancel the one different one that interests a different group of people. Too shocked to be coherent!
