It's a sad day in Utopia as Fox has decided to cancel it's reality show. The "brave new world" is now empty. One moment the Utopians are chatting as usual and the next moment the feeds are down... not even a goodbye given to the loyal #Viewtopians. Last Friday's Halloween episode will be the last to air.
