I thought FOX only canceled good shows, like Arrested Development and Futurama.

I think it's subjective. I didn't like Arrested Development, but I did like Futurama.

I agree the writing went downhill, especially last season. I actually was enjoying this season though.

I thought The OC was a great show first season. Good story, centered around a kid in trouble, and a family willing to get him out of it. Then 2nd season on it became pure crap and just another teenage soap opera.

Yeah, that's what I'd heard as well. I was never a fan, but anytime you start killing off multiple regulars, it usually means you're struggling for viewers. So, rather than attempt some insane publicity stunt, maybe the writers decided they'd run out of good ideas, and they'd rather save what remaining dignity the show had by bowing out respectably, rather than trying to fight their way into another season or two.

Besides, I'd imagine these types of shows thrive on being new, exciting, ground-breaking, etc.; after a few years, they lose that edge, and it's pretty much impossible to get it back.

Shows have been canned because they went head to head with the OC and got slaughtered in the ratings...

Please, please don't let it get into syndication. I don't want to be asked if people from here actually call it THE OC.

Too late, Soap Net already bought the rights and will be airing it in the late afternoon early evening time slot. They will start airing it in a few months.
