Negative Positive
Title: Definitely Worth Getting
Review: Profit was quite possibly the best show to ever air on the Fox network (The X-Files and The Simpsons included). It was also quite possibly the best show of the Nineties. Despite this, Profit only lasted for four episodes, all aired in April 1996. I am not sure why Profit was cancelled, but it could be that it was just too starkly original, too edgy, just too dark. Jim Profit was both the protagonist and the villain of Profit. Played by Adrian Pasdar, he was as evil as they come (J. R. Ewing was an amateur compared to him...). Profit worked for a large, international company and was willing to do literally anything to rise through its ranks. Created by David Greenwalt (who later worked on Angel) and John McNamara (who had previously written episodes of Brisco County Jr.), Profit worked very well as a dark satire of corporate America. It is little wonder to me that it has maintained a cult following to this day.
