Rescue Me to End in 2011
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, FX, Cancellations, News, Renewals,
Some good news and bad news for followers of Rescue Me. The FX series about New York City firefighters has just been granted a 7th season. Unfortunately, that will also be the program’s last.
The timing of the show’s end has been carefully thought out. The final hours will air in 2011—the year we
commemorate the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
“Within the next couple of weeks, we’re going to begin shooting the last 19 episodes, which will be the final two seasons of the show,” co-creator and executive producer Peter Tolan said.
Rescue Me‘s current season will wrap on up on September 1.

Emergency! Reno 911! Canceled!
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, Cancellations, Gossip,
Time for tears. Cable’s favorite gang of bumbling cops is going off the air. Comedy Central has canceled the largely improvisational Reno 911!, truly one of the funniest shows ever to grace the small screen.
“Won’t be wearing the shorts again,” co-creator and star Thomas Lennon tweeted to fans. “Reno 911! was canceled at 1:30 pm today.”
The series recently finished airing its sixth season, which marked heavy casting changes for the first time in show history. New bits and new faces might have been a death knell for the show, which surprisingly (and still inexplicably) dumped three leading cast members last year.
Reno 911! was a Keystone Cops-type comedy set to a Cops documentary wherein cast members often talked to cameras. It was created by former members of the series The State and had very little scripted dialogue. It will be sorely missed.

The Future of the CW
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Cancellations, Gossip, Renewals, Rumors,
There were times, before Gossip Girl, when the CW might have started to fade into oblivion…moments when it seemed the network was still struggling. But in shows like Gossip Girl and 90210, the CW managed to strike gold. Melrose Place will premiere this fall, launching the channel toward even bigger success. So what else is in store for CW viewers?
Right now, the rumored Gossip Girl spinoff is a no-go. That’s not currently on the CW’s plate, though fans will no doubt keep the hope of a new GG series alive. Talks for Gossip Girl spinoffs are still ongoing, but it doesn’t seem they’ve settled on a sure idea yet. The Body Politic pilot (featuring Brian Austin Green and Gabrielle Union) won’t make it all the way to the schedule, either. This wasn’t the only casualty of many good pilots the CW decided to pass on…for now.

Medium Moves to CBS
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, CBS, MTV, Medium, Cancellations, Renewals,
The showrunners at Medium are feeling quite large today.
One day after receiving a cancellation notice, the cast and crew of the NBC series were given a reprieve. The Patricia Arquette vehicle will now be heading over to CBS.
Being booted by the Peacock might have actually been the best thing for the show. Medium will now get a plum spot right after Ghost Whisperer on Fridays. Although that position is currently occupied by Flashpoint, the police drama is expected to return sometime midseason.

Unaired Pushing Daisies Episodes Coming to DVD
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, Cancellations, DVD,
UPDATE: It appears ABC will show the remaining episodes after all. The bad news? They’ll air on
Saturdaysbeginning May 30.
Anyone interested in a sampling a few more pieces of pie?
Although ABC cruelly ended Pushing Daisies before it had a chance to finish its run (at least Life on Mars got its series finale), Ned and Charlotte lovers are being thrown a small bone.
The bad news? ABC doesn’t have plans to air the program’s remaining three episodes. (Seriously? They couldn’t find room anywhere?). The good news? The upcoming DVD/Blu-ray releases will include all thirteen hours from Season 2.
Daisies’ discs will become available on July 21. Those unable to wait that long could opt to attend this month’s PaleyFest instead.
