2007/2008 Cancelled Shows

The first cancelled show is "Viva Laughlin"

From Yahoo! News :

CBS pulls plug on "Viva" musical drama By Nellie Andreeva
31 minutes ago



LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - CBS' musical drama "Viva Laughlin" has become the first major casualty of the 2007-08 season.

ADVERTISEMENT

The network canceled the Hugh Jackman series after two dismal showings -- a special premiere on Thursday and a time slot premiere Sunday.

Sunday night, the series based on the BBC format managed a minuscule 6.8 million viewers during the 8 p.m. hour. It shed almost a third of its audience between the first and the second half-hour.

CBS will air a rerun of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" in the time period this week before bringing back the slot's last year occupant "The Amazing Race." The reality veteran will return for a 12th cycle November 4.

Viva sounded cool when I first heard about it, but it got skwered by the critics before it ever aired.

It aired here in Aus last night, and it flopped as well.

I saw some promos, but wasn't interested.

Actually, "Nashville" on Fox was the first cancelled show.

So anyone want to guess which show will be cancelled next?

My pick: Life Is Wild will be the next one gone.

I heard Viva Laughlin was awful! Shame as the lead actor; Lloyd Owen is very good from what I've seen of him on UK TV.

Either Life Is Wild or Big Shots will most likely be cancelled next.

No it wasn't. Fox claims they're bringing it back later on in the season and that it's not canceled.

I think they'll move Life is Wild before canceling it. I think K-Ville is going to get the axe.

Big Shots should get axed. Cuz if IT stayed and Six Degrees didnt last year, I would be really pissed off.

I could only stand to watch a few minutes of Viva Laughlin. Doesn't surprise me it was canceled.

I hope Cavemen is canceled next. I can't stand that show.
