Also getting tired of rebooting EVERY show that ever was. Try something new.

I LOVE the show and will most definitely miss it. IMHO, it had a bad line up spot.

Sorry to see it cancelled. Loved that the son worked for a Fox-like network. I think being a fan of the original helped, lots of references to that series. There’s not much for me on network TV.
