ABC Boss on "Body of Proof's" Cancellation – TCA
by Nellie Andreeva
August 4, 2016

ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey was asked to address the decision to cancel "Body of Proof" from three years ago.

Before a string of shows that failed miserably in the Tuesday 10pm slot, ABC had Dana Delany's "Body of Proof", which ran for three seasons to steady ratings and strong international sales for sister ABC Studios.

The show’s cancellation by Dungey predecessor Paul Lee was a financial hit for the studio and deprived the network of a potential utility player. An attempt to resurrect the series several months after it was taken off the air did not materialize.

“We have oft-lamented the cancellation,” said Dungey, who previously oversaw ABC’s drama department. “It was a good show, and it was sad to see it go.”
