FOX cancels 5 shows; Series Pickup News

A little surprised with Breaking In getting canned.
Thank God Human Target got the axe after the mess that was season 2.

WOW that was fast for Breaking In. Guess they figured once AI was done the ratings would go in the toilet.

I didn't even realize Zooey Deschanel was going to be in a new show, lol. I wonder how much her sister having a hit show on FOX helped her show in getting picked up.
I'm hoping The Chicago Code and Traffic Light both get renewed, but I'm not going to hold out hope. Honestly, I'm just glad Raising Hope and Bob's Burgers both got a second season; anything else is gravy.

Human Target S2 was suppose to be my 24 replacement, but it failed miserably. So much potential too. I will forever remember the name Matt Miller and avoid his shows.
Hopefully Chicago Code gets renewed.
I thought Breaking In was ok, but mostly feel sorry for Bret Harrison

Gave up on Human Target, it just wasn't the same show as season one. If that was a show not named Human Target I wouldn't have even have stuck around as long as I did.

About The Chicago Code getting axed too. But, I'm not super surprised. The ratings were never outstanding and FOX has very limited timeslots next season. Hopefully episode 13 ends with some closure.

Christian Slater is pretty much a guaranteed canceling these days. How many episodes were aired?
Poor Michael Rosenbaum, he's talented too

Well, if Human Target and The Chicago Code are gone, hopefully Lie To Me can pull through for another season.

Anytime I think of canceled shows anymore though, my mind is instantly drawn to Terriers. Of all the shows I've loved and lost, and there have been quite a few, that was the worst. So while I'll miss The Chicago Code, losing it is, comparatively speaking, not so bad.
Sucks for Ryan to have two shows canceled in the same season though.

A Napoleon Dynamite animated show got picked up by FOX?
Way to cash in on the hit movie - from 2004!

kstublen's Dan Stark just makes me sad. Why couldn't that come back?
Human Target...good riddance. I'm glad it's cancelled b/c now I can't talk myself into watching it just in case it got better. With how Fringe season 3 ended, maybe Mark Valley can go back there, unless it's too weird for Anna Torv.

So is FOX still going to be showing reruns of The Chicago Code over the summer as previously announced?

I know, that was probably some of the most fun I've had watching television in a long time. A really unique and fun show, that would've faired much better on a cable network, like USA (characters welcome).
I could accept it's cancellation if they'd at least release the series to DVD, but who knows if that will ever happen.

So the Tim Minear curse continues. He worked on both Terriers and Chicago Code this season and both were axed.
Ryan tweeted about 1 hour ago....
