I just wanted to express my disappointment in the Fox Network for cancelling one of the best shows to grace its airwaves. Wonderfalls was the only intelligent, worthwhile program to watch on your vile and sensationlistic station...and now only after 3 episodes, the show will be cancelled. If it's ratings that are a concern, may I suggest a better timeslot than 9pm on a Friday night?!?!?! Give me a break...who is ever home watching tv on a Friday night!! I hope enough viewers speak up witht the same concerns to put the pressure on Fox to take back its decision, and keep Wonderfalls on the air.
Pissed in Toronto
As soon as I heard about Wonderfalls, I knew I would be hooked. I also knew it would probably not last long. FOX needs to give the show another chance or let another network like UPN or WB pick it up. Who knows maybe WB can put it in Angel's old time slot.
This is the only show on tv that I actually look forward to seeing every week. If it were better advertised, perhaps there would be a better viewing audience.
Besides being an "in-the-now" mainstream piece of refreshing entertainment candy; while being creative, perky, frisky, & innovative: Wonderfalls is a rockin'-good-time family show! The characters & story lines are both intelligent as well as enlightening on many down to earth levels. To replace high-quality fun shows such as this, (that obviously posses a desire to educate as well as stimulate;) with that of mindless, financial, & lust thirsty, trend-dulling reality programs such as "Garden of Eden;" (using the premise of Biblical theology as a means of entertainment marketability:) Is truly a disgusting act. As if we need any more pointers towards the "wrongs in America" ~ certain buffoons in the Entertainment industry seems to keep layering on that tasty icing, of non-credible, shallow, money-making crap. Sometimes I’m so proud to be an entertainer that I’d like to vomit all over my self. Thank God, (or whoever you believe in) that there are still some innovative & daring-to-be-original artists, writers, designers, inventors & entrepreneurs left out there. “Rock like you can’t stop! Now I want my MTV & my Wonderfalls!”
I cannot believe that FOX is willing to cancel an EXCELLENT show like this when they have all these (no offense) CRAP reality shows. Fox, if you really want to have programming that is cutting edge and smart, KEEP WONDERFALLS and do away with all the reality shows that are just plain embarassing and offensive. This is a show that truly embraces the TV formula for good programming. It has strong characters, especially the lead, it's funny, smart, and unlike anything else on tv right now.
How can Fox be this stupid? The ratings were poor on Friday, so they put it up against CSI and The Apprentice. Stop setting the good shows up to fail! Bring back Wonderfalls.
This show just needs a chance. There have only been a few episodes and I know that not enough people have been given the chance to see the true gem that this show is.
This show is brilliant and the actress who plays Jaye is equally brilliant. She's dry, charming, and cynical...all at the same time. There is no leading character out there like her.
Another excellent show that Fox fumbled... Hey Fox, if you look at some of the really successful tv shows, their entire first seasons were not rated very well. X-Files, Star Trek... Take a chance and give these shows a chance to find a following!!
Unfortunately in Britain we are catching the American ratings disease - When I think of the classic British Comedy series that would have been cancelled here if the powers that be had taken notice of the ratings - Yes Minister, The Good Life, Coupling, etc. etc. You can't expect a programme like this to get into people's psyche after four shows! - Let it live!
This is an original and fun program that actually has a good moral to it, in a quarky sort of way... please don't let it go and leave us only with 'reality' TV...Please, Please, Please, Please!!!!
It is bad business to pull the plug on after 4 episodes. They didn't even give the show a chance. Me and my family love it and are disappointed with the network for canceling it.
With the premiere of Wonderfalls there seemed a shining light in the very dark tunnel of network TV. I was fortunate to catch the first delightful episode of this new show and eagerly looked forward to each new show. Apparently that light I saw was merely the oncoming train of yet even more slack-jawed, knuckle-dragging stupidity in the form of "reality" TV. You can stop this runaway train, Fox! Keep Wonderfalls ON THE AIR!!!
This was a wonderful, wonderful show--it (and Arrested Development, also woefully underviewed) were not only the best new shows of the season, they were the best shows, period.
How do networks expect show to grow when they're not given a chance (how do you cancel a great show after only 3 episodes). This was an amazing show for intelligent viewers.
Come on! They'll continue to air senseless reality garbage but they won't give this brilliant show its full season run? Wake up, FOX ... this is what TV is all about!
Way to go Fox! If you did realize it I'm being sarcastic. Fox seemed as if it was redeeming itself after "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiancé" but they go and cancelled a great show. Wonderfalls is one of the best shows on TV and Fox feels that it's a smart moved to put “Forever Eden” in its place. Good idea, replace a smart, funny fantastically written and acted show, with a “reality” show about some 15 minute fame seekers whose only way to feel good about themselves is to cry and shed their close. Fox you suck! SAVE WONDERFALLS!!!!!!!! Please let another network pick it up!!!
I love this show. Pease don't take it off the air. I am so sick of Reality TV. Wonderfalls is witty, charming and extremely entertaining. I am losing Angel, Friends, Frasier this year. Don't cancel this new show that I have only just discovered.
Wonder Falls is a quirky off-centre look at 20something culture. It is the most original new show on American TV this year, and Fox executives should be ashamed of themselves for not only canning this great show with much potential (and 9 more eps filmed) and replacing it with an encore of a show that has not even aired yet.
Grrrrrrrr!!!
Fox doesn't take a chance on shows, they don't let them gain any momentum. How they can continue crap like Tru Calling and cancel Wonderfalls is insane to me.
It doesn't happen very often to find a show that respects your intelligence as a viewer, using irony as a weapon. Between reality shows, talk shows and lawyers/cop shows, Wonderfalls is the most refreshing breath of air to enter the TV. NO wonder the suits at Fox didn't like it, you have to be an active thinker to understand it!! Hopefully reason will succeed and some network will air the remaining episodes and more seasons!! Go, Jaye, Go!!
We wept and sang the theme song we heard the news. Why do they do this to us? Are we not humans with feelings? And money to spend on unnecessary consumer goods?
I love this show it was the only reason I ever watched fox at all, since I hate the channel. It is the only intellingent show they had and they are suckers for canning it. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by this coming from them.
I'm so dissappointed that they, the evil FOX network, has decided to cancel one of the few decent shows on TV. Hopefully someone will allow the remaining episodes to be released on DVD. Or better still, some superior tv network will decide to pick it up. A sad day for television.
I was fortunate enough to have reviwer DVDs of the pilot & 2 other episodes, and watched them all back-to-back when home sick one Monday before it premiered. I loved it! And have been watching ever since. When is the Nielsen system going to be overhauled? I think alleged viewer number s are way off base. And boos to Fox for not giving this wonderful show half a chance.
Wonderfalls cancelled already? 9pm Friday?! It's way too bad because I, for one, loved the episode I saw. But I work on Friday nights? UPN or WB ought to pick it up and air it at a different time, since Fox didn't see the value of this very entertaining show. Someone at least put out the DVD!
Fox has done it again...cancelling a show without giving it a chance. When I saw the pilot and loved it I knew it would be cancelled like "Action" and "Andy Richter Controls the Universe." and probably "Arrested Development."Fox sucks ass.
I was so excited to add this show to the few that I really watch and follow.... then I went to the website and discovered it was gone!! I really hope someone out there is following this campaign to keep Wonderfalls around...
Yeesh -- how can you cancel a show after airing two episodes? It takes time to gain a following. And for a second, I thought FOX might be worth watching.
This is an amazing show, it is at times thought- provoking, bright, quirky, and refreshing--a wonderful mix. I can't believe that Fox is cancelling after only a few airings--a show like this builds up a strong following over the course of a season, bring it back and BE PATIENT!
I love the show. I have recorded every show I could. My daughter from college loves it also. My husband, who watches very little even enjoys the humor.
