Question:
I love American Dreams, but I have heard the awful rumors that it has been canceled. Are they true? It would be a shame for such a well-scripted and acted show to end when the story is just beginning. — Phuong
Matt:
True, there was much more story to tell, but I fear we won't be seeing any more chapters. The official line is that NBC has not announced or confirmed a cancelation, but it's all but certain. One source tells me the show's soundstages have been released, which doesn't sound good. But it was a real long shot anyway, even before its move to Wednesdays, once Extreme Makeover: Home Edition started crushing it like a bug on Sundays.
(Note: Column is new every Monday and Friday, so this is a new entry).
Last we heard from Jonathan Prince, they were keeping the soundstages (same as the sets, I presume; sorry if I sound stupid, but I'm not in the TV or theatrical business). Sounds pretty clear it's over, even though NBC hasn't given the official word. I'm still waiting until the 16th, but I've pretty much resigned myself to this. I'm hoping we'll at least get a real series finale.
