NOBODY else is reporting this yet. So I'm grain of salting it.

It's not too expensive. NBC probably could have easily paid for another season of it next year. The network just really doesn't WANT to, because of the ratings, etc. And I don't really blame them. I just think it was shitty to negotiate season five as the final season, then go back on that, then ultimately cancel it.

Supposedly it was end of business today, but that came and went. My guess? Just sometime next week.

It's a year that ends in a 4. ALL OF THEM COULD BE.

Even though a lot of stuff got canceled this year, we really are on the precipice of cancellation becoming much more rare for stuff that attracts a loyal audience, as I wrote about in my FOC. It's entirely possible we'll look at Trophy Wife's numbers next year and say, "Yep. That would get renewed this year."

The thought I had in the shower is a sort of team-up between Sony, Hulu, and a cable network that wants to make a name for itself. I could see that happening, if the costs are split three ways (with Sony handling the bulk of them). It's just a question of which network would be interested in that. The one that came to…

The irony is that next fall looks like a pretty great year for new TV, judging from the scripts.

I suspect Sony will do whatever it can to get it picked up for one more season. (My understanding is that cast contracts run out after season six, which would likely make season seven prohibitively expensive for anyone.) So we won't know it's DEAD dead until July.

Not renewed or canceled, but it doesn't look good.

We talked about that in the ABC roundup this morning.

They weren't, until DYLAN MCDERMOTT WAS ON THE CASE. DYLAN MCDERMOTT. STALKER STOPPER.

He's on a Fox show. Weirdo something.

With Krysten Ritter and Elisha Cuthbert participating, you have no idea how UNclassy this Newswire almost got!

Now, now. Let's keep things classy.

As I've said frequently, I think it's safe through four seasons. ONce it runs into the Silence rights issues, things get trickier.

Hulu reupped a couple of weeks ago and announced it at its upfront. But, basically, Hulu has access to all of the reruns, while Netflix and Amazon don't. So without those reruns, Netflix and Amazon are unlikely to play ball.

I think Stingo refers to the most recent Hulu deal which closed a few weeks ago and almost certainly limits the show's streaming options to Hulu. Amazon and Netflix are unlikely to touch it.

Had I seen this, I would have said Hannibal was going to be back, and now it is. There was no way that show was getting canceled.

Growing Up Fisher is a younger show. If NBC just needs to spackle over a hole against football, it will be far cheaper to do so with GUF, almost certainly.

The live+7 numbers slumping for the finale really hurt it! I don't know why that one sample size seems to have affected it disproportionately, but it has.
