[quote name='gizmogc']This will not happen with Family Guy. Fox does not care about ratings. Only about selling DVDs and merchandise. Expect Family Guy to be on the air for the next few years.[/QUOTE]
Sorry but that is how it works... for every series and every network (save for maybe PBS). Fox being outside the original big three cares somewhat less about ratings (WB and UPN would care less) and they are big on releasing DVD sets, but to say any network doesn't care about ratings is rediculous. TV networks make most of their money in advertising...they don't have to draft a check to creators and actors for selling ad spots, they do for DVDs and merchandise. Further more it takes even more money to make DVD sets. And for the kicker dwindling ratings and failure to secure good advertising dollars are the main reasons all the series you heard named the other night and Family Guy were cancelled plain and simple.
