Why cancel this amazing show


I have been watching this series in MADRID, SPAIN and its an amzing series, one of the best for ages. Sci Fi with feeling. The two leads are superb and the ensemble work reall well. Good stories, good acting etc etc. A BIG MISTAKE FROM FOX.

Yeah it's excellent fit a show off its type. Big shame to cancel it. Boo hiss.

Just to let you know, fans are still trying to get Almost Human renewed, or picked up by another network.

We do mass tweet-outs every Monday, 8 PM EST, 5 PM PST, and all relating time zones, with the hashtag #SaveAlmostHuman, and send them to as may networks as we can fit into the 140 spaces. Some of us post pictures and cartoons about the show as well.

We also started a mailing campaign, where we mail noodles (About the only thing Kennex eats) to Fox and Warner Brothers (Warner Bros created the show) Pack of Ramen, 3 postage stamps and it's on it's way!

Mailing peanuts helped get "Jericho" renewed (Yes, for only 1 season, but it's better than nothing!) so we hope to have the same effect with the noodle campaign!

You can check me out on twitter @JenCat004 for examples and info, or go here http://www.pinterest.com/jencat004/karl-urban/ to see some of the stuff I've created to tweet out.

The show had good ratings, we're convinced we can get it back if enough people make enough noise! So please, mail some noodles, send some tweets, and let's get our show back on the air!

There is also an online petition to sign at http://www.change.org/p/save-almost-human There are more people signing it every day, so please be one of them. :)

Thanks much, and spread the word!

SAVE ALMOST HUMAN!

Almost Human is an interesting show. Cancelling it is one of several big mistakes made by Fox along with cancelling Joss Whedon's Firefly and Dollhouse.

I have to totally agree with you on that one.
I loved Almost Human, now we'll never see what was over the wall?
What was FOX thinking?

God is an astronaut, Oz is over the rainbow, and Midian is where the monsters live.

No kidding. My problem with Fox is that they spend the money on the shows pitched to them by people like J.H Wyman & Joss Whedon and they let those really great shows fall onto the side of the road. The Fox executives don't advertise the shows very well, air episodes out of order, or have the shows air on Fridays which is bad for new shows.

I watched the pilot already knowing it had been cancelled just to see if it was really bad or something

It wasn't. Actually quite good so I watched the series and there's maybe one weak episode but the rest are excellent

Another one bites the dust
