confused

So, yes, I am confused. I read in the Guardian today that Channel 4 are cancelling the OC. I was a little surprised by this, since just about everybody I know watches it, which is more than can be said for most of the crap they show. Even The Boy watches it, although he watches lots of telly. Why, is beyond me, since, apart from the aforementioned show, there is just about nothing worth watching at all these days. Unless I want to buy a house, decorate a house, sell a house, or watch 8 people live in a boring house. Anyways, now that I've googled it, I can find nothing about this apparent cancellation. Can anyone fill me in?
