Fox got three-series lighter on Thursday when it decided not to renew ?Brooklyn Nine-Nine,? ?The Mick,? and ?Last Man on Earth,? for a sixth, third and fifth season, respectively, just ahead of its upfront presentation in New York Monday. Fans quickly took to social media to express their fury over the trio of cancellations (the ?Nine-Nine? squad, in particular, was very vocal) and a response of that magnitude begs the question, ?what was Fox thinking?? Well, even though your heart might be breaking over the decision, there is some method to the network?s madness here ? even if it?s not an explanation you?ll like.
