Ok, so we're all big fans of Fox-bashing here. Well, maybe not fans, but most do it. But as they say "If you want something done, do it yourself." So I propose to you, fellow Browncoats, just for fun, let's make our own fantasy TV network.

I figure our network would focus on that which binds us all, cancelled shows. So let's start our by brainstorming cancelled shows we could put on air (if they're on DVD, even better). Once we get a solid list going, we can start to put together a fantasy schedule and determine what's on when.

I'll start off the list of shows with a couple obvious ones:

Firefly
Wonderfalls

And not so obvious:

Newsradio
Futurama

Oh, and a note, we should probably limit it to shows that didn't have extended runs. For example, Angel or The Practice, while cancelled, have enough shows to run in normal syndication.

I think Dead Like Me qualifies as cancelled. Though it would kind of rule out the new Doctor Who. Unless one insists on Eccleston. The reactions and smiling in all the wrong places make him more alien than all muppets and bumpy foreheads in other shows *fg*
