FINCU FREAKOUT?
Frenzied Fans React to Rumors that Declining Ratings May End Hopes for Season 4
Is there trouble on campus? FINCU, once king of the Nielsen’s, has hit a ratings slump that may put it on the network chopping block.

Whatever the reason, die-hard fans are up in arms over reports that May’s season finale may double as the series finale. Message boards have seen a flurry of activity. Protests are already underway, and Jimmy H. administrator of the FINCUniverse fansite hopes producers and network execs alike are prepared for the heat—as in RedFire Atomic Gumdrops! Members of his forum are planning to inundate them with hundreds of cases of the fiery candy—in honor Cody’s [Dylan Nathanson] trademark habit of chomping down on the candy when deep in thought.
“FINCU is a terrific show, with loyal fans that deserve better than this!” says Ashley Townsend a UCLA sophomore and devoted fan of the show.
Others, however, are heralding the news. Since the beginning it has been the subject of less than enthusiastic reviews from critics Continued on pg. 86
