yeah. its kinda funny because I think they saw firefly and john doe getting the same high ratings (it was friday nights I think so the ratings they got I think were pretty high relative to the slot) but firefly was really expensive and john doe was cheap. So they were like. Okay we are dropping firefly we can just do more shows like john doe. Whelp once firefly was canceled then john does ratings tanked because it got a lot of folks who made time for firefly and hung around for doe because it was not half bad. It was not good enough though to get people to make it a point of scheduling around it. so then it got canceled a bit after.
