View Full Version : Why? M82A1 06-06-2003, 10:11 AM Why did FOX cancel Titus :confused: ? was it because of the ratings? I thought it was funny. Anthony33 07-02-2003, 11:24 PM Actually ratings were good so when ratings are good a show is cancelled because the person in charge of programming doesn't like it, which in this case is Gail Berman. nimrod_86 07-14-2003, 03:11 AM It's a cross between that, and subject matter. A lot of people started complaining about the show. DID YOU KNOW that Titus was actually getting higher ratings than King of the Hill? Anthony33 07-14-2003, 07:37 PM Yes not only King Of The Hill but Titus also had higher ratings than Grounded For Life. I officialy hated Grounded For Life for good when it was not only renewed over Titus, but then picked up by WB, which led to the cancellation of another show I really liked, Do Over. The Obsolete Man 07-24-2003, 12:10 AM Basic answer? Fox are idiots. This is the network that cancelled Family Guy, which beat WWF Smackdown at its peak of popularity in the all-coveted 18-34 male rating demographic. Fox has lost its... well.. .testicular fortutitde over the years. The network which gave us Married... With Children at a time when Full House was king is now too scared to air shows like Titus, and Family Guy, because they're too controversial, or "out there". Anthony33 07-24-2003, 12:38 AM Well that's the thing. Back when Married...With Children was on, Fox was still a fledgling network. Now that they're a major network, they want to play it safer and when they do air a show that takes a chance, it's only small risks and nowhere near as good as the ones they won't put on. They basically have idiots in charge of programming there now. nimrod_86 07-24-2003, 07:52 PM It's a mixture of that and the fact that the head of FOX programing hated the show. Anthony33 07-24-2003, 08:49 PM So why did they put it on in the first place? Was there a different head of programming in 2000 than there was in 2002? nimrod_86 07-30-2003, 03:00 PM No, but they figured it would rack up huge ratings, because it was the only show as daring as it was at the time. But it was only a cult show, so the head of FOX cancelled it. Anthony33 07-31-2003, 12:57 AM "BLAST" as Stewie would say. Chocoholic 08-06-2003, 02:28 PM I don't understand why FOX cancelled Titus and Andy Richter Controls the Universe. I thought both shows were great. Yet Ally McBeal and Party of Five both lasted for several seasons... :barf: And don't get me started on those awful reality show!
