"We will fight them on the shores of Miami .... (Vice)
 We will fight them on the streets of Dallas
 We will fight them on the Knott's Landing sets.
 And if the ratings lie for a thousand years, we will know
 That this was our finest hour."

Below is the addres of ABC to write complaints to.
I think Max was one of the only progressive TV shows on the tube.
I'm very sad to see it go.
