Cancelled Comedies 2014 Reveals, Rumors and Plots: Cancelled Shows that were to Premiere this Fall
We all have those shows that we love to the moon and back. Unfortunately sometimes we are part of a really small group of people that like that show and the bigwigs decide to scrap it. Here are three comedies that will see no new episodes, unless they get picked up by Netflix like Arrested Development.
The amazing comedy Suburgatory about a New York teen who moves to the suburbs with her father was scrapped by ABC on May 14th 2014 after three seasons. The show was based on the book Suburgatory: Twisted Tales from Darkest Suburbia had fairly good ratings although the numbers in viewership continuously declined. The first season had 7.25 million viewers with the final season amassing only 5.51 million viewers. These were not amazing numbers but they certainly weren't scrap worthy numbers. There is word that the series is being touted to other series, we can only hope it will be picked up.
So it seems 2014 was the year ABC decided to scrap really good comedies. ABC also saw it fit to drop Trophy wife after just one 22-episode season. The series which revolved Kate a girl who marries a middle aged man and finds out he has two ex wives and three children. The series received positive reviews and even got Critics Choice award nomination. It is still a mystery why ABC felt they needed to scrap it but such is life.
Remember the movie Bad Teacher? Well CBS decided that the movie was so good they decided to order a series by the same name and with the same plot. The series began airing on April 24th 2014 and was actually cancelled after just three episodes. Since the whole season had been shot it was shown anyway. The first episode showed to an impressive 7.8 million viewers, by the 6th episode this had dropped to 1. 52 million and on July 26th 2014 the final episode showed to an audience of only 1.51 million viewers.
