It should never have been cancelled so soon.

# My three favourite shows
Futurama, Family Guy and Farscape (all of which began with F, strange that) got cancelled too early.
The bitch with farscape was they were already told that they'd been given their 5th season, then a few days before finishing shooting season 4, they get told "oh, we changed our minds, there's a get out clause in our contract"

# The ending was quite good though
...in a kind of difficult to top kind of way

# For some reason
when I go without sleep my posts end up being a lot longer than they normally would.
Also when I go without sleep I tend to get a bit hyper, being happier and more fluffy.

# well at least your being fluffy
however long posts are a bit of a problem due to the fact that a lot of poeple don't read the longer posts which reminds me of one time where i was at this forum and they said something and i can't really remember what what was with the tweenies who said 'let's make a tv show about some brightly coloured people with beaks' and why am i talking about tweenies anyway that's just silly and by the way your weapon of choice anim rules anyway i'm getting slightly extremely off topic i should be talking about long messages on b3ta like the one you just read.

# All good things
tend to get cancelled too early, because they're not formulaic stuff.
The networks are scared of trying to promote this different stuff and give it a chance up against all the other networks who will be showing tried and tested formulaic shows that will be guaranteed to pull in an audience.

# True.

# yeah it's a shame it works like that cause Futurama
was absolutely excellent, it was pretty surreal at times which was a good thing and I used to laugh all the way through. I think that's the problem, they don't want us to laugh anymore.
