   the details are murky.

 

   but basically, from what i know, the network bowed to the Super-Religious Types (with _no_ sense of humor).

 

   the SRT did their usual schitck - they yelled, held their breath, basically threw temper-tantrums.  oh, and threatened to BOYCOTT anyone who had ads in the timeslot.  so the money went away, & the network pulled the show.

 

   this is why you need to tell t.v. people loudly/often how much you like shows that you like.  they listen to the "squeeky wheels".

if you like a show, say so.   that's what kept MASH on-air it's first few seasons; MASH almost got X'ed after season 1.
