"Fox, like every other major station, is nothing more than a advertising delivery medium. They would broadcast nazi propaganda films if they tested well and brought in the ad money."

Bingo!

However... Fox did muck about with timeslots and ordering of episodes. Which leaves room for conspiracy theories, or considerations regarding ineptitude. We're disappointed that the tv show is dead, let us whine!

Ah but politics is related to the show. Why do you think it was cancelled? It reflected a group of people fighting and struggling against a huge industrial-military complex. It was glorifying individuality and real morality, not the false morality of god and government. It is almost as if Firefly was written to be critical of our current society. The very people that benefit from this corrupt culture are the ones that are making all opur choices for us. They are the ones that get elected and the ones that run the major corporations. As Star Trek can be seen as a reflection of the Cold War, what context can Firefly be seen in?

The current state of the U.S. Gov't has no direct link to the cancellation of the show.

The idea that there was a meeting among the leadership at Fox, and someone said "hey, we better get this individuality-inspiring, true morality space western of the air before G.W. Bush sends in the marines." is quite amusing, yet completely laughable

Also, I'm not real comfortable with the thought that anyone can like this show and still think Bush is a neat guy. I mean, hello?
