Because I only ever report the series that disappear, let me switch moods for a thread and note that the previously quoted B&C story (broadcastingcable.com) ALSO mentions that ABC sitcom "What About Brian?" has been filled out for a full season's worth of episodes. This is actually their SECOND season, but if you've never heard of it, I can't blame you - it airs Monday nights opposite football and RAW and probably some other shows as well. However, reports indicate that it DOES do a fair job of holding onto the same audience that watches its lead-in - "The Bachelor: Rome."
You hit the nail on the head, CRZ. Talk about an anonymous show. The renewal has to be a good-faith deal with JJ Abrams for delivering them Lost and Alias.
"I don't know what is more disquieting -- the fact that the rest of the statue is missing, or that it has four toes."
Sony was incredibly high on it, and tried shopping it around when it was clear ABC wasn't picking it up after this season ended. They went so far as to promote it during Jeopardy, which is something I've never seen happen.
