What happens to a show when it is put in a bad time slot that guarantees it will be preempted by another regularly schedule TV event. The resulting pile of unaired episodes and low ratings then justify its cancellation.

Usually only doable by Fox Broadcasting with its 7-7:30 Sunday slot since the NFL and Nascar are variable length, regularly scheduled events that run in the fall and spring.
Fox just Futuramaed King of the Hill by moving it to the 7pm slot just in time for football season.

REALLY FUNNY animated series by Fox, featuring an intergalactic delivery crew in the year 3000. Look for it on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim, because Fox cancelled it... :(
If you looked this up you probably love Futurama.

A great mature animated show, jerked around by FOX, pre-empted most weeks, then cancelled for "lack of ratings". FOX have now culled their cash cows down to The Simpsons which is a sad shadow of its former self, and World's Blankiest Blank...
...well she is wearing the World's Shortiest Skirt

An underrated, kickass show made by Matt Groening (The Simpsons). Canceled by the evil that is 20th Century Fox but gladly revived by Comedy Central (South Park)
