Weird name, dude....
What source says the show was "cancelled due to pressure from Christian groups"? Just wondering as the IMDB triva page at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0221751/trivia says it was cancelled due to low ratings.
- The IMDB is notorious for incorrect content. However thats not to say it isnt right and id like to see some kind of official source that says it was cancelled and why. --Mercifull 14:45, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
- I remember when this was aired on the BBC, and there was a fair bit of talk about how it had upset a lot of people in the US. Not sure how TV networks operate in the US, but wouldn't they have just moved the show to a different timeslot if it had low ratings? I found this link http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/special_report/1999/03/99/tom_brook/681071.stm which talks of a boycott. --Stuart 11th Oct 06
- I think this is closer to what we are looking for http://www.guardian.co.uk/BBC/Story/0,,384780,00.html--Stuart 11th Oct 06
- Those links are interesting. Though those don't appear to have the exact reason as to why it was canceled. Also I haven't heard of the IMDB being notorious for incorrect content before, I had always thought what they listed was correct. --Justin (Original Question Poster) 02:01, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
