There is nothing I like about 2021

[cornerofmadness]

Within a half hour I learned a family friend died (well more a friend of my Mom and my brother but I knew her of course) and then learned that no more than a couple hours after Fox's Twitter posted a promo of Frank Hart's performance in Prodigal Son's BLM/police racism storyline, it drops that Fox canceled the show. see more here.

I'm honestly depressed about this. It's such a good show and deserved better. Of course just a couple years ago I was right here with Lucifer too. Fans are hoping someone else will pick the show up. Oddly there were so many articles out today from literally everywhere begging for the show to be picked up and being positive and then this. I swear to God I shouldn't even turn a show on if Fox is the one delivering it.

So have some fan recs since I haven't done this in a while. Most will be Prodigal Son because damn it, it deserves it.

Sorry to hear about your loss. And how frustrating is that about the cancellation of your show?

[cornerofmadness]

thanks all around

My condolences on the loss of your family's friend.

And oh no!! This season was during a pandemic, people had other things going on! This is tragic news. FOX really does suck all around.

You really never can trust them.

:-(

[cornerofmadness]

thank you.

It was truly upsetting. It's such a good show and lose it so fast...

Sorry for your losses

As I often tell my staff, some days you're the windshield and some days you're the bug. :(

Often, I think if a show has too much heart and creativity the networks cancel it. It's like there's a formula they follow above and beyond ratings.

Fox. Ugh.

That is true

It was such a good show. I hope someone else picks it up before the actors move on

On the plus side, Lucifer did get picked up by Netflix. (I think it may stream elsewhere in the US.) So there's hope for Prodigal Son.

It sucks that Fox has cancelled it.

[cornerofmadness]

definitely hoping for a Netflix moment for Prodigal Son (they're courting HBOMax hard) The fans are working it. Crosses fingers

Fox still sucks
