http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/26/Fox-Cancels-Nashville.aspx Another one bites the dust! Fox has pulled its new show NASHVILLE from its Friday night lineup after just two weeks, and zap2it.com says it will be replaced with repeats of another new show, K-VILLE. Well, at least it lasted longer than ANCHORWOMAN, which was canceled during its premiere episode. While Fox isn’t officially confirming it has cancelled the freshman show, they are saying, “upcoming episodes will be rescheduled.” I think we all know what that means though, especially considering how bad the ratings have been. I mean they averaged a 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic and only 2.4 million total viewers. That’s murder by numbers, in the entertainment industry. I don’t know when they are planning on “rescheduling” the show, but if it were really done at all, I would expect to see it sometime around 2 a.m. You know that’s actually not unheard of. There was a show that finished its season during that time period, last year. Of course I don’t remember which show it was, because obviously I – along with the rest of America – wasn’t watching it. NASHVILLE was described as a somewhat unscripted show that followed country music wannabes around Nashville, while they tried to make a go of it in the business. It’s actually a pretty good concept, except for that somewhat unscripted part. What does that even mean? And really, do we need another show filled with a bunch of 20 somethings that look like they have all stepped out of the pages of Abercrombie and Fitch? The most frustrating part is the fact that the networks aren’t giving shows any time to catch on. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/09/26/Fox-Cancels-Nashville.aspx 77 60
