If we're going to talk about TV shows canceled before their time, why not talk about Titus?

Dark, dark subversive comedy about an extremely dysfunctional family, very loosely based on Christopher Titus' (the leading man's) real life. It was a lot of fun, and while it started to go downhill in the 2nd and 3rd seasons, they could have probably gotten away with one more. Unfortunately, FOX canceled it for being too edgy. Fortunately, it's out on DVD.

And while it's a bitch and a half to find sound clips from it on the web, I did manage that feat.
