What I feared: Fox and Undeclared

Seeing the previews for Andy Richter and Greg teh Bunny, i knew these shows had to go somewhere.
Andy Richter is scheduled to go on Tuesdays at 8:30PM, thats Undeclared's time slot.

why cant it go in That '80s Show's timeslot instead?

It's actually been scheduled to be there for a while. Doesn't necessarily mean Undeclared is gone, but it's a very bad sign. I don't understand why a show like Undeclared can't succeed, it's a funny show. I just hope it makes it back to next season. After all it's fairly cheap to make from what I understand, and Fox doesn't have a lot of options.

Well way to fricking go fox. If that show is gone guess that'll be 3 networks I skip over.

CBS - Sucks!
ABC - Sucks!
NBC - Ok
FOX - Was great now going to suck!
WB- Better than Ok


And to top it all off......I don't have cable!

Here is the beef on Undeclared:

Fox had originally bought about 13 episodes of this show which were actually completed over a year ago. This is about half a seasons worth. They came back and shot a few more episodes a couple months ago and Fox was going to buy about 12 more episodes but then decided to stop production after FOUR more episodes. Therefore, they have a total of about 17 episodes completed, most of which have probably aired already.

The production offices for this show were shut down last friday on the 15th. This doesn't neccessarily mean that the show is cancelled, but it does seem unlikely that production will resume. In my opinion, this show is history.

Yup, Undeclared is all but gone for good. Too bad, it's a great show. I was even more pissed off a couple years ago when NBC canned Freaks & Geeks.

So when is the Freaks & Geeks and Undeclared guy gonna make the move to HBO or Showtime, where a series with actual 3D characters is at least given a chance?

I'm sure that there are lots of reasons beyond the quality of the program that go into this decision that I don't know about. Still, I have to agree with you... Undeclared is the *much* better and should be kept in some time slot.

As with all Fox shows, don't get too attached to them. As soon as they get good/attract a core following someone at Fox decides to can the production...

I've had a few shows that I watched end up in the Fox bin-of-death.
