Fox cancels 'Skin' after three airings: "Fox has canceled prolific producer Jerry Bruckheimer's new series 'Skin' after three low-rated airings. "
Wow, I really thought this show was going to be a hit, a la "Nip/Tuck" and "The O.C.", but I don't watch either of those shows so what do I know? Personally, I don't think networks should be allowed to cancel a show so early - give it at least 13 episodes to find an audience for crying out loud. Imagine if we had never had "Cheers", "Seinfeld" or "The X-Files" - these shows were all very low-rated but were given an entire season to prove themselves. Sometimes more. If we used today's criteria back then, they wouldn't have lasted the 3 airings that "Skin" was given.
It sounds like it's a nut house over there at FOX, doesn't it? Good luck finding a FOX show you like this month. Like a little greased pig, right when you think you've got a hold of one, it'll slip right through your fingers.
