If this series was so great, why was it cancelled?
Perhaps because Season 2 was so shitty.

YES. I'm glad you've taken heed of the board's suggestion, you absolutely will not regret it (although, I do find it strange you hate seinfeld, so who knows).
Well I've owned it for almost a year now, just finally got the urge to put it in and check it out. And Seinfeld is just stupid IMO. But I am in a very small minority on that.

It take a few episodes to really get rolling but once it hits its stride you won't want to stop. Season 3 is definitely the weakest of the seasons, but 1 and 2 are gold.
Does the show actually end? Or is it just cancelled and the show ended with no closure..?

The second Marta was a chick that played Cleopatra in some TV movie.

A good example of why the show might have lost viewers; simply too over the top. Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of people still believe in God in some form or fashion. Shows like this that appeal to secular progressives run the risk of alienating many viewers.
I personally enjoy a lot of the bleeding edge programming but if I was an execute producer looking for max ratings/advertising dollars I would steer clear of a series like AD. As mentioned, this show would probably be better on DVD. The first season DVD set got good reviews on Amazon: LINK

Wow I just realized that I got criticized on a 2001 thread but a guy that doesn't like Seinfeld.

This was my main complaint. There were still a lot of funny moments, but it was all just too much.

Yeah, I just could never get past the utter, unfunny stupidity of the dad in the attic. It was so bad, it would just make me mad when it came on the screen. And I LOVE Jeff Tambor.

Watched about 4-5 episodes on netflix instant this weekend and thought it was pretty solid. Going to finish it sometime this week probably.

That storyline was 10x better than Mr. F.

It ends with some closure. Obviously not what the writers had in mind at the start of the series I'm sure, but you can tell the last few episodes were just kind of thrown together haphazardly, IMO. They even write jokes into the show begging for people to tune in and watch. They wrapped everything up in the finale, but it seemed somewhat hasty and forced.
And btw I don't think that takes away from the series one iota. It's still fantastic.

I don't even remember that one.

It's the storyline from about half of season 3. You probably don't remember it because you've erased it from your memory.

Saw Rio with the kids the other weekend and while it was good Cera's voice was grating

Ah. No, I gave up after Season 2.

MR. F is the best story line bar none.
My favorite moment was the flying jet pack and the mole destroying the toy city for the asian investors, I was gasping for breath and crying I was laughing so hard.
