Fox is Going Sci Fi on Us

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed FOX promoting some of their new shows like a whore flaunting her body? Well apparently it's working.

FOX, which opted out of debate coverage in favor of the two-hour series premiere of James Cameron's Dark Angel, did very good, actually bested the CBS telecast, drawing an 11.2/17.

MediaWeek Online reported yesterday that the strong showing of Dark Angel was predictable, noting that stations that opt out of major political-event coverage usually do well."Fox promoted that show so unbelievably, so massively that it's been everywhere. ... With that promotion comes the name James Cameron, and with James Cameron comes Titanic -- the biggest box office moneymaker of all time. Just for that simple reason, even it had been a regular night of programming and it wasn't the debates, it still would have done well."

But FOX is not stoping there they already have been and will continue "whoring" the FreakyLinks Show as well as the next season's X-Files. Which by the way is now staring the T-1000 from Terminator 2.

There is one thing I think we can all agree on; That chick from Dark Angel is Hot
