Lone Star has only aired twice, and Fox has already given it the boot.

It premiered last week to dismal ratings (a measly 4 million), and Fox reportedly was giving the show one more chance to improve its ratings. A huge campaign was launched online by series creator Kyle Killen: “For [Lone Star] to survive we’re going to have to pull off a minor miracle,” he wrote. “Statistically, new shows tend to lose viewers in their second week. We’re aiming to gain them. In fact, screw it, let’s just double our audience.”

Apparently their efforts weren’t rewarded.  According to Ausiello, Fox has pulled the plug on it’s critically loved con-man drama, Lone Star, after last night’s episode drew in even less viewers, 3.2 million.

I never watched it – I like to think I have a sixth sense about which TV shows to invest my time in. The shows I love usually last a couple seasons. And for the record, I’m also staying clear of Hawaii 5-o (I tried to watch it, it was terrible!) and the new Fox comedies.

Just stick with me, I tell ya!
