Did they officially cancel it?

Can I ask you a favor and please limit your signature to maybe 5 or less quotes? Saves some space on the server for me, thanks.

I liked that show a little. The whole premist of the mutant baby was really cute, but just like all of the other FOX shows, it was a flop.

I dont think its cancelled yet. They were holding on to it in case there was a writers or actors strike, but I dont know if they still are or not.

I don't want to insult anyone because we all have our opinions, but this show was horrible. The only character I didn't want to smack was the dog.

It's coming back this Fall! FOX Thursday nights will look like this...

8 p.m. - Family Guy
8:30 p.m. - The Tick
9 p.m. - Temptation Island II

Family Guy will be up against Friends which is not good news but here's some even more bad news...It will be up against SURVIVOR! SO if you're a fan, spread the word to get people to watch it because it got a tough break this time around.

FOX apparently didn't learn their lesson when they paired Family Guy with Action a few years back -- it didn't last long in the Thursday night slot and was ultimately canceled, but not before they ordered more episodes. It sounds like the unaired episodes have been sitting in limbo for a while and they're just getting around to airing them. It's also my understanding that bad placement of Action/Family Guy on the schedule got the head of the network fired. . .

I'm glad to see a good show return.

Sorry if any of y'all disagree, but for me, it kinda seems like All in The Family meets The Simpsons. If FOX would replace that horrible Malcom with this show in the 8:30 eastern sunday time slot, it'd be the best that happened to that network since, well, The Simpsons.
