So do some of the other cable networks. I encourage people to boycott the major network shows as they eventually screw most of them up.

The CSI franchise should have been killed off (pun intended) a few years ago (yet they were quick to kill off the better of the three, CSI Miami). NBC screwed up Community in its third season and yanked in on and off the air like a yoyo, then instead of premiering the show in October delayed it until February and aired a Halloween episode and a Christmas episode in April. Not to mention pissing off the creator who quit. CBS canceled Joan of Arcadia at the end of its second season.

But I hadn't heard about the split. We get Fx here in Korea, but it isn't the same as the US version. It won't affect me as I get all my stuff from the best source in the world, online.
