So Fox picked up the low-rated The Following and the even lower-rated Glee for another season, and yet they cancelled Almost Human. According to
The Hollywood Reporter, the show will not be back for a second season.
I am just dumbfounded by their decision because this show was paired perfectly with Sleepy Hollow and did better than that Kevin Bacon show; and yet it won’t be returning and they will be. I don’t get it. It was a great show with brilliant writing, in fact it was one of the better ones that they air.
If I were J.J. Abrams, I would not do another show over at Fox. Except for Fringe, they seem to like to do 13 episodes and done. Which is not only cruel to him, it’s crueler to us because his shows build a core audience that want to see them back. I didn’t hear anyone scream I want a third season of The Following. But I did hear a lot of people who wanted a second one for Almost Human and Alcatraz.
I seriously don’t know what Fox is doing any more and I think it is time for much needed change. Starting at the top aka Kevin Reilly. If they cancel Dads, I am done with them except for any show starring Gordon Ramsay, anything animated, Bones and Sleepy Hollow.
When it comes to Warner Bros, please shop this show around because I would love to see more of it.
