Well instead of just shitting on everyone else, how about contributing to the conversation - what shows of theirs do you consider worth saving/reviving?  What kind of "art" has come out of the Fox TV network that you consider worthy?

Expressing my wish for certain shows to be cancelled is not shitting on everyone else. To suggest it is suggests overidentification with one's tv shows. You are not your tv show. If I shit on Firefly I am not shitting on you. One needs to put a certain distance between oneself and the things one likes or else it becomes impossible to hang around a place where there's free discussion (which includes criticism) without getting all worked up and hurt all the time (on account of things you like get criticised or dissed). And expressing such opinions as I expressed IS contributing to the conversation. The fact that it's not contributing what you want to hear doesn't mean it's not contributing. Let's not get into the mindset some sites have where anything that is critical of something is "not contributing" and only stuff involving praising stuff is considered contributing. I'm sorry if my opinion bothered you, but I do believe in expressing my opinions even if they're not to everybody's taste.
