" Falling for Wonderfalls Fox's Wonderfalls is the funniest show on television and the best new series of the season. So why aren't you watching it? by Jonathan V. Last 03/26/2004 12:00:00 AM
HURRY. Get your Wonderfalls quick. Before it's too late.
This season has seen the premier of two high-quality, hour-long TV series. The first, Karen Sisco, was an adaptation of Steven Soderbergh's 1998 film Out of Sight. Like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Karen Sisco proved to be a large and unexpected improvement on the original (although, unlike Buffy, the source material was darn good to start with). ABC aired nearly a half dozen episodes of the smart, sweet, and funny Sisco before pulling the plug.
The third episode of Wonderfalls airs tonight on Fox (9:00 p.m. est), and if the early returns are indication, we'll be lucky if the executives at Fox allow three more of them to see daylight."

"In a perfect world, Fox would take a chance on Wonderfalls--move it to Sunday night, pair it with Arrested Development, air its reruns on FX, and stay with the show for a season or two. But in the end, Wonderfalls will probably be forced to surrender to destiny.
That doesn't mean you should miss out. Tune in tonight and see what great television looks like. "
Agreed. I found it much better than I thought it was probably going to be from the previews (probably an attempt to rip off _Joan of Arcadia_).
Airing It Opposite The Basketball Championships Probably Did Not Help The Ratings Any Maru
