Everyone, add to this list of FOX shows cancelled too early...these are only the ones I can remember.

* Firefly
* John Doe
* Futurams
* Greg The Bunny
* Andy Richter Controls The Universe
* Arrested Development (we know it's coming)
* Wonderfalls
* Get A Life!
* The Tick
* The Ben Stiller Show
* Undeclared
* Dark Angel
* Keen Eddie
* Pasadena (OK, it was a soap opera, but the only one I've ever found interesting...introduced me to the great Alison Lohman)
* NEXT (the comedy sketch show by Bob Odenkirk that never even aired)
* Cracking Up (Not sure about this show, but it needed more than 4 or 5 episodes...it's better than Bernie Mac)

*Action
*Titus
*Family Guy
*Cedric the Entertainer Presents
*Skin
*Boston Public

I saw several others cancelled by Fox that I'd never heard of so have no idea how much of a chance they had or if they were any good.

My first experience with FOX disappointment was for cancelling one of the most brilliant dramas ever created for television after airing only 5 episodes.

ecgordon - you brought back memories. I can remember rushing home on Friday nights to watch VR5 and the X-Files - good times!

Loved Brimstone too, but Greg the Bunny needed to be cancelled IMO.

I have another one

The first [?] of this list, the original X-Files lead-in:

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

[p.s., I have problems including shows like Futurama and Boston Public in this list. Not that they weren't cancelled before their time was up or weren't mishandled, but they did have good 4 year runs].

Strange Luck. I think that was on Fox, it stared D.B. Sweeny.

Freaky Links. I've got a soft spot in my heart for gangs who investigate the paranormal (must have started with Scooby Doo) and also folks who put up good websites!

Yeah, D. B. was doubly jinxed by FOX, he was in Harsh Realm too.
