T.V. shows (and the horrible networks that kill them) episode 1: Firefly

Anyone remember Firefly, the amazing S F show that was shown on Fox a couple years ago? I remember it as being one of the most amazing experiences in television that I've ever seen. However, only 14 episodes in, Fox killed it. It explained that the reason was that no one watched it. I guess that would make sense, except for the fact that they changed the show-time repeatedly, and put it in the same time-slot as the super-bowl. How can you watch it when you don't know when it's on? It doesn't make sense, does it? I mean, this show had everything. Space cowboys, gunfights, cannibalistic mutants, and to top it off, amazing actors. It had a top-notch cast which included Nathan Fillion (Slither, Waitress) ,and  Alan Tudyk (Death at a Funeral, 3:10 to Yuma). It wasn't just some idiots in funny costumes, it was a group of amazingly talented actors. 

This has been L.T. John, with the first episode of T.V. Shows (and the horrible networks that kill them)
