Oct. 30th, 2006 05:11 pmI don't know if anyone reading this cares about these things any longer, but here's the TV Cancellation Olympic Status report that I got from Brilliant But Cancelled this morning.
1. Twenty Good Years is in a coma, in other words it is close to being cancelled and has stopped production.
2. The following shows have been picked up for a full order - in other words, the network has asked for 22 episodes and they are *not* going to be cancelled: Heroes, Jericho, Ugly Betty, Brothers & Sisters, Shark and The Game. Rejoice if you are a fan of them.
3. Vanished, Six Degrees, and 30 Rock are in trouble. Vanished may well be the next to go, it's been moved to Fridays and the producers have been asked to wrap up their series in 13 episodes to be safe.
The other two are getting bad reviews, horrid buzz, and dismal ratings.
4. These shows have gotten a reprieve or a show of good faith: Studio 60 (NBC ordered 3 more episodes of a show that costs $3 million an episode to make. Think about that for a minute. 3 million an episode.), The Class (CBS ordered four more scripts), and Men in Trees (ABC ordered four more scripts). This means these shows are safe for now.
