“Everyone, I’ve got bad news,” dad Peter Griffin tells his family in the opening scene of Fox’s “Family Guy.” “We’ve been canceled.”
“Oh, no, Peter,” responds wife Lois. “How could they do that?”
But Peter is understanding. “Unfortunately, there’s no more room on the schedule. We’ve just got to accept the fact that Fox has to make room for terrific shows like ‘Dark Angel,’ ‘Titus,’ ‘Undeclared,’ ‘Action,’ ‘That ’80s Show,’ ‘Wonderfalls,’ ‘Fastlane,’ ‘Andy Richter Controls the Universe,’ ‘Skin,’ ‘Girls Club,’ ‘Cracking Up,’ ‘The Pitts,’ ‘Firefly,’ ‘Get Real,’ ‘Freakylinks,’ ‘Wanda at Large,’ ‘Costello,’ ‘The Lone Gunmen,’ ‘A Minute With Stan Hooper,’ ‘Normal, Ohio,’ ‘Pasadena,’ ‘Harsh Realm,’ ‘Keen Eddie,’ ‘The Street,’ ‘American Embassy,’ ‘Cedric the Entertainer,’ ‘The Tick,’ ‘Luis’ and ‘Greg the Bunny.’ But I suppose if all those shows go down the tubes, we might have a shot.”
