Well, that's what my friend told me anyway, and I wouldn't be surprised if FOX took the show off their network.
You know what else needs to come out on DVD? Andy Richtor Controls the Universe.
Ah. Well, tell your friend he's full of shit because as far as I'm aware FOX hasn't released their fall schedule yet and won't for another few weeks. He's correct in that AD is in jeopardy for the second consecutive year, but the show has friends in high places and a great reputation (not to mention seven Emmy's) so I'm optomistic it'll return.
Also, you're right about the need for Andy Richter Controls the Universe on DVD.

Whenever I see your new avatar Grant, Final Countdown plays in my head.

Not to mention, Fox is actually promoting the show with its own petition:
At least Fox actually cares for the success of the show or it seems to be that way. Unfortunately people weren't watching despite that it followed one of the network's highest rated shows(despite its crappiness).
Speaking of the Simpsons, I don't watch it anymore because as far as I'm concerned it is part of the 95% of crap that airs on TV.

The timing was just never as good, for one thing. Kidnapster, for example. Lame puns can be funny if they're lame enough and handled right. Kidnapster was lame enough, but was handled badly. Good God, look at me, I'm analysing the jokes now.
I'll bet you didn't get half of the <I>real</I> geek jokes.

Such as?
Oh, and is this a bad time to say I hated Seinfeld and have never heard of Arrested Development?
