Mike Judge got screwed over by Fox again when they didn't advertise it. Same thing happened with Office Space.

Because Fox doesnt really have a good sense of humor about a director using their money to make fun of them and call them morons.

Thats why if you watch closely it just sort of looks like they ran out of money at some point.

I mean, they've several tv shows that do that. But I guess they make/made big money so they didn't care.
