"'Happy Endings' Never Found Its Sea Legs," ABC's Paul Lee Says
8/04/2013
"Happy Endings" is officially canceled, but ABC is still getting heat for it. At his executive session, ABC president Paul Lee discussed the series and the struggles it had on the network.
"Happy Endings" got its highest ratings airing after "Modern Family", and according to Lee, the series couldn't find its "sea legs" away from the popular series.
Lee said any show "has to sort of earn its right" to stay after the Emmy-winning comedy and has to "attract an audience on its own," something "Happy Endings" didn't do.
