SO WHAT DOES FOX DO when it finds the new hour-long drama it shoved into a Friday night slot of obscurity turns out to be a creative, unique, witty show that not only gets great reviews from critics but also gets people who hate TV to tune in and watch?

They shove it into the Thursday timeslot against CSI, the number one show in America.

And what happens the week after?

They cancel it. And replace it with a reality show involving "ugly women" who are given makeovers and forced to compete in a beauty pageant.

Jesus.

Wonderfalls, you deserved so much better. Whatever happened to letting a show run out its 13 ordered episodes and not canning it after fucking FOUR?!

They could have done like they did with firefly.

Reordered the episodes, so that they provided maximum confusion to the viewer (but the most action up front!) and then cancel it.

Like I posted on eschwa, I probably should have learned my lesson with Firefly. I'd vowed not to watch anything else new on Fox, but the temptation of seeing a Tim Minear produced show was just too much.

Fool me twice, shame on me.
