NBC has let the option lapse on time-travel drama Journeyman, a move that essentially signals cancellation of the low-rated show. The network had until Tuesday to give a full-season pickup to the series, which performed particularly poorly this Monday without its usual Heroes lead-in.
Last week NBC gave fellow rookie Life a test run in Journeyman‘s Monday 10 p.m. slot after the much-hyped Heroes finale. Life didn’t show much improvement over Journeyman‘s numbers in the time slot, but the cop drama has been steadily gaining momentum in the coveted 18-49 demo on Wednesday nights and has already been given a full-season order by the network.
I wish the writers and producers could settle this thing. I cannot fathom a whole season of (un)reality shows. But, what can you do eh?
Especially when you get a gander at what they think will pass for a reality show. Farmer Wants a Wife? No thanks.
