    Family guy offended people and as a result it got moved around in scheduling.

    Not with the first season I don't think. Pretty sure it was just plain canceled and that is why it's 10 or so episodes shorter than the others.

    Yeah, I suppose so. My wish is they would do what family guy did. That is they would gain huge popularity for a canceled show, and they would bring it back.

    Except not terrible like the new family guy episodes.

    Well as I understand it Family Guy was canceled because it pissed people off not because of poor ratings so their comeback made a lot more sense.

    I don't know if I'd would wish for it to come back but I'd definitely like to see Bateman in more things. He's fucking great.

    it was a combination.

    Family guy offended people and as a result it got moved around in scheduling

    as a result of being moved around, people didn't know when it was on, so it got poor ratings.

    So in responce to the show getting some complaints, they bump it around the schedule and anyone who actually likes it has a harder time keeping up with it.

    That is the dumbest fucking thing.

    Obi, don't try to pretend that you are being logical.

    You're the one who tried to use anecdotal evidence.

    I used anecdotal evidence because that really is the only evidence we have when discussing this, unless you have actual numbers or something.

    "Pretend" to be logical? Sorry, but all of my classes right now are currently forcing me to be logical so that how I am tending to be. Gotta love "Technical Communication", Calculus II, & Data Structures and Algorithms.

    Thing that is bugging me is that no one else has given any sort of evidence showing that the problem WASN'T the marketing.

    I hope they don't hold off on the movie while waiting for Michael Cera to agree, and just decide to make George Michael a Milford man.

    are we seriously arguing about why this show was canceled?

    i mean yeah it was fantastic but it didnt get good ratings (probably because fox kept moving it around the schedule every other week) and ratings equals money which equals more episodes

    Yes, but anecdotal evidence means absolutely jack shit.

    If you only have anecdotal evidence, that means that you do not have any evidence.

    the show lasted a couple of seasons (i want to say three, but it was possibly only two) before being cancelled

    that's what happens when you have contracts, and conflicting agendas, and all of that.

    I wish they got picked up for a special or a movie or something. I don't know. Just lame that it ends like that.

    This is a joke right?

    You know the movie has been announced for a while

    Amazing. That's the best thing I've ever heard. I'm assuming it must have happened while I was in my coma in Japan where I heard nothing about anything that actually mattered. Good shit.
