that's too bad, I really liked the show.

but I understand that TV Land is trying to change their image and only put on terrible shows now.

There should be 8 more episodes, not 6. TV Land increased their order this season to 24 episodes. Did TV Land cut the order? It's sad this show got canceled. IMO I found this to be TV Land's best original sitcom.

TVLand took off Happily Divorced that was smart and funny. So I guess I shouldn't be surprised at this cancellation. But it is too too bad!!

I don't believe it!! I loved that show along with Hot in Cleveland. It should at least get a good series finale.

Nothing left for me to watch on TV Land.

TV Land seems to be trying to get "younger" originals to appeal to Generation X as opposed to Baby Boomers, but are forgetting that Generation Xers are getting old too. I mean, I'm part of Generation Y and I'm almost 30.

I LOVED "The Exes" - it made me laugh and the characters were all so funny.
I am very sad and disappointed that they cancelled this show.

I wanted all...or at least most, of the characters to have their story lines tied up, but that only happened for Haskell.

- and yet some of the commercials they air during these "younger" -appealing shows are obviously directed at the elderly; catheters, diabetes testing equipment, adult incontinence products - it seems like the TV Land exec's brains have become incontinent.

It was a terrible show, despite the all star cast.

I really liked the show. I was bummed about it. Yes the writing was sometimes a bit safe but all in all I thought it was a good show that always had me laughing. Especially Eden and Holly and then when they added Leah Remini to the mix.
And I really loved seeing ALL of those actors together in one place.
Watching really good sitcom actors on television now ,in the style of live studio audience, is becoming such a rare thing.
