Why must I love shows destined to get canceled?

So, I have come to the conclusion that I am destined to love shows that are canceled. Does this mean I have bad taste? No, I believe this means I have good taste. Apparently people (other than myself some fellow tv.com tv viewers and a hand full of very creative show creator types) do not like shows with imagination and heart. Why would this be? Firefly, canceled. Wonderfalls, canceled. Pushing Daisies Canceled. It just blows my mind that apparently the audience does not support these shows to the point that they will be loved and cared for by the networks. I'm starting to think I can only watch high concept shows on cable, where they have a chance of survival. I can't even hate one network anymore, I must hate all of them for there strict adherence to the bottom line. Reruns appear to be a better use of tv airtime then beautifully creative shows. I don't think I'm mad, just very sad. Sad that most people don't want to engage with out of the box material or quirky and would rather watch reruns or reality junk that never seems to get canceled. So, this is me sad. Good by Pushing Daisies you were beautiful and quirky. I hope you get a movie and then I can say my two favorite dead shows became movies.
