FOX has given the hook to one its low-rated dramedy "Wonderfalls," one of the show's executive producers says.

The network confirmed the show's cancellation on Monday (April 5).

Posting on the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" fan site Buffistas.org, "Wonderfalls" (and ex-"Angel") producer Tim Minear writes, "[W]e're cancelled. Effective at once. The cow creamer will be silent this Thursday and forever forward."

Although it was the subject of generally glowing reviews, "Wonderfalls" drew only meager ratings. In three airings on Friday nights, the show averaged about 3.8 million viewers, while the lone Thursday airing of an original episode on April 1 drew even fewer than that.

By comparison, "Boston Public," FOX's 9 p.m. Friday show for much of the season, drew an average of about 4.9 million viewers a week.

Thirteen episodes of "Wonderfalls" have been completed, and Minear says he and creators Todd Holland ("Malcolm in the Middle") and Bryan Fuller ("Dead Like Me") will try to find a home for the remaining shows, either on DVD or at another network.

"[T]he thirteen taken as a whole tell a story and go to a place, so a run of this 'limited' series would not be unsatisfying elsewhere," Minear writes. He advises fans, however, not to mount a save-the-show campaign with the network.

"Not really anything you can do. The network is a non-starter here," Minear writes. "The studio, 20th, is possibly a different matter. If they get the sense that people would buy a complete series DVD set, it might happen that the series becomes available in future. But please don't waste your time or money on trying to revive 'Wonderfalls' for a pick-up with FOX. Ain't gonna happen."
