What's the Status of ...

[Lance Link]

I have noticed that for the next three weeks Emiril, Inside Schwartz, Three Sisters and Wolf Lake isn't on the schedule. Has these shows been canceled ?

[Sean Snow]

Only "Wolf Lake" is cancelled. The others will return in a few weeks. BTW, "Inside Schwartz" was the most succesful new show, I'd doubt they'd pull it.

um, well you are wrong, as Inside Schwartz has been getting HORRIBLE ratings and is likely a goner. the most successful new shows of the season, thus far has been Scrubs, Alias, and Crossing Jordan. also, According to Jim, all of which have been picked up for the whole season, also picked up for the whole season are Reba, Maybe it's me, and rasing dad....

No, "Inside Schwartz" has the best ratings of any new comedys. It's doing better then those shows, it even said that in the article in which it said it was shelved for the season. "Scrubs" hasn't been getting the greatest ratings.

Yes, "Inside Schwartz" is getting the highest ratings of any new comedy, but NBC still considers the ratings horrible. If "Schwartz "was getting the same type of ratings on Friday or Tuesday nights, NBC would be ecstatic. However, "Schwartz" follows "Friends", which has been alternating with "ER" as the number 1 show this season. "Schwartz" loses a huge chunk of the "Friends" audience, and has been falling out of the top 10 recently, so NBC doesn't consider it a success. It also loses it's time period to the second half of "Survivor".

"Schwartz" has been pulled off for November sweeps, and there has been some speculation that "Scrubs" will get its time slot after that. "Scrubs", while lower rated, is considered a greater success, because of better reviews, and because it holds a greater percentage from its lead-in, "Frasier", than "Schwartz" does from "Friends".
