So was Studio 60 officially cancelled?  They hyped The Black Donnellys in that time slot to no end.

[/threadjack]
[tj]I know it was picked up for at least the remainder of the season, I don't know if it will be continued next season or not. Last week's episode was pretty weak. Last nights was better, but still not as strong as the show was right out of the gate.

I think in response to disappointing ratings, they've tried to re-tool the show to be more of a romantic drama type show. As of late it's really a lot more focused on the romantic relationships between the two main characters and a lot less focused on the political/social commentary that originally drove the show. Quite honestly the more things they do in attempts to attract viewers, the less interested I become.

As for The Black Donnellys, I think Laura summed it up best the other night when she said "that show will never work on network TV, they can't swear."[/tj]

Nine episodes of Studio 60 left to air.  The show was put on hiatus a week early, after last night's episode pulled the lowest ratings in its brief history -- less than a third the number of people who watched CSI:Miami.  No return date has been set, and NBC is not disputing the many reports of cancellation.

If the contract requires that the remaining nine episodes be filmed (at $2.5-$3 million per), it's likely NBC will "air" them online and not on TV.

Ah, thanks guys.

I'll be bummed to lose the show, but, to followup on spaceage's comments, I'm not crazy about the recent direction of the show either. (focusing so much on Matt/Harriet and the absurd Bradley Whitford/Amanda Peet storyline)

Back to Heroes talk, I hope that Ando and the Invisible Guy don't disappear from the storyline for too long.  I found them more interesting than some of the other characters.
