"Studio 60" fans- looks like the axe is about to fall

[underpants]

First off Amanda Peet had a girl!!

I saw that my TiVo is taping Anthony Bourdain's show tonight at 10 (usually tapes the 1 am airing) and the NBC listing has "The Black Donnellys' with NO FUTURE LISTING for Studio 60.

Looks like it is over.


Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: The Death Blow?

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip just hasn't found its audience and NBC's patience is wearing thin. A show whose merits I have time and again touted, Studio 60 has not received the ratings to justify its gaudy budget (over $2 million per episode) and big-name cast. NBC has had confidence in the Aaron Sorkin-run show, but the audience that they thought would eventually come remains absent. America would much rather watch its time slot competitor CSI: Miami, it seems.

The new drama arrives at 10 p.m. and takes the place of "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" whose ratings continued to tank last week with just 6 million viewers. It's doubtful it will return next season.

1. I thought last week was the final show?

Now '30 Rock' will make way (but return in April) for Andy Richter's show in March. :-(
