Low ratings?

It still had a pretty good run.

ratings the last 2 seasons were extremely bad (it was in the 90's both in the 99-00 and 00-01 seasons). I think NBC let it run it's course because it was a vet by that period, whereas most new shows would be canned for higher ratings (think ABC and Drew Carey)

it did very well in the first 4 seasons. But during it's 6th season and last season it placed 93rd for the season. Which is awful for a NBC show.

99% of the reason sitcoms are cancelled are because of low ratings.

I'm pretty sure the ratings tanked because Joseph Gordon-Levitt left (or cut his hair--I can never decide which).

When I first saw this thread I thought it was about 30 Rock. :lol:

I've always thought that the first few seasons were by far the best. I never cared for Seasons 5 and 6 - they got way too crazy and unbelieveable. I can fully understand why the ratings were low for those two seasons. I can watch Seasons 1-4 over and over again and never get bored.
