What are they playing at?
They cancelled Buffy because Sarah Michelle Geller didn't want to do a new season, so it was pointless doing a show without the main star. fox have also cancelled two other up and coming shows Firefly by Joss Weddon and Birds Of Prey - a futuristic follow on to Batman, with a grown up Batgirl in the lead role, so fox (don't deserve capitals) are having one hell of a clear-out at the moment, they in financial trouble or what?

I find it so funny (not really that funny), that I knew this thread was started by Juliet just by the title I didn't even see the thread starter yet since it was on the first page. Anyway, I've only seen a hand full of buffy episodes, so I'll probably die before I've watched all 7 seasons any way, so there's no loss for me. Though, I digress, buffy is a pretty fun show to watch. So, I'm sorta apathetic about it, but I always wanted to sit down and watch all the dvds eventually...

By lfv: i think Birds of Prey was a one-shot deal. besides, wouldn't the axe be in WB Network's hands? i mean, it's a FOX show, but WB pays for it and airs it. What do you mean, a one shot deal? Why would they make just one season of a show? Even 24, with its limited premise, is going on for more than one season. Birds of Prey was obviously supposed to be an ongoing series. Also: are you sure FOX produced Birds of Prey? I thought Warner Bros. owned the rights to all DC comics characters. At the very least, it aired on the WB, so they were the ones to cancel it, not FOX. P.S. But just for the record, I would like to say that the show was crappy anyway.

It's the eternal tragedy of great tv shows. They start off brilliant then go downhill and/or get cancelled while countless dross shows run for season after season.
