LOS ANGELES (Sept. 23) - The ax fell quickly on Fox's "Head Cases," the first series of the new TV season to be canceled.

The legal comedy-drama starring Chris O'Donnell and Adam Goldberg was yanked after its second airing Wednesday, in which its audience dropped by about half from the first episode.

The series finished in fifth place for its 9 p.m. EDT time slot, drawing just about 3 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research figures. Its competition included ABC's "Lost," which drew a series-best audience of about 23 million in its season premiere this week.

In "Head Cases," O'Donnell played a hotshot lawyer whose career derailed after he suffered a nervous breakdown. His efforts to make a fresh start were complicated by Goldberg's character, a fellow patient and a low-rent lawyer assigned to be his therapy "buddy."

The new season officially started this week but the Fox show got a jump on it with a Sept. 14 debut.

For now, new episodes of the reality series "Nanny 911" will air in its time slot, Fox said Friday.

The ratings news was brighter for the network itself, which is up 51 percent in viewers for the start of the new season compared to last year.

They are phasing out all good telivision. I am completely convinced. Wonderfalls, Joan of Arcadia, American Dreams all very awesome, all very cancelled.

Headcases which included the very enjoyable, very funny Adam Goldberg (Saving Private Ryan, The OCD roommate in those few episodes of Friends) and the very fine Chris O'Donnell; was canceled after two episodes.
TWO!
I didnt even have time to really invest in the characters, who might I add were an odd but positviley contrasted pair.

These characters could have grown on me! It's a damn cryin' shame! I think I could have really liked it.

Hi ladies, as some of you may know, I am writing a book and my main character is an overweight teen who becomes an overweight adult. I am an over weight teen going into adulthood, and I have my own struggles with this and have been putting them into my book I was curious as to what experiences some of you may have had... Good or bad concerning weight. I would like to know so that I can put a more well rounded struggle into the story. Anything would be useful just need a little more inspiration and information to be accurate. Thank you ladies so much and have a blessed night

Sounds like you writing my recent biography lol.

The past 5 years Id say might be helpful, 15-20...the story of big girl growing into a mighty woman...hehe j/k.

In all seriousness, its been about defining love. not so much what it is, I'm still not completly sure. But more of what its not. Attraction not equating to love is one of the biggest things I've had to absorb. Because I had low self esteem from being overweight i was a late bloomer, cliche...i know. anyway When I started a new school at 17 I met bryan. The attraction was mutual but between his affectionate actions and my sense of hopeless romanticisim I convinced my self it was serious. I infatuated myself with him. After two years things were going great..in my head. Hindsight he was wishy washy A LOT. A week after graduation he broke it off, apparently It was too much for him and It was meaningless. I cried, of course i cried. For 3 days I laid in bed, over him. Then I went into denial mode. I was happy, I was working out, dancing, singing...hurricane bryan had passed and the sun was shining again.

Then a month later my mom called. Again. Begging for a plane ticket home from her tyranical husband. We obliged, wiring her her proverbial get of jail free card. It wasnt long after she got here I started really working on myself. I had made a pledge back when i was 15 to be as little like her as possible, as the last thing I wanted to do was end up living anything close to her life. I started observing my mom, seeing psychological trends and keeping notes in my personal journal, comparing my actions to hers. I found that I was breaking the promise I made to myself 5 years ago sensationaly.

When it came to relationships I was mirroring her. I found her (and subseqently myself) "emotionaly easy" . Any guy that showed attraction or intrest, immediatly became/becomes her everything, her life, her obbsession, her reason for living, her real love...on an emotional level.

I realized she did this because, she didnt value her self enough to be happy alone. Infact, at no point in my life has she been alone for more than a few months. It was my father7 years..divorce...6 months alone...Carlos-10 years..break up...2-3 months alone..Michael ever since. It occured to me that being apart of someone else is what validates her as a person, in her mind. She's trying to fit in somewhere. Story of my life since 2nd grade!

Since then it has really sunk in that I MUST learn to value myself as an individual. It's OK to be alone and work on myself...love myself for who I am; which is what I want to do at this time in my life. And when I want to date...I'll date...on my terms and not every little thing will be serious. It may sound silly but it was a hard thing to do, to really look at my mom like that, to accept those concepts, but it was quite possibly the greatest gift i've ever given myself.
