TNT cancels Raising the Bar
Network cites second-season ratings as primary factor
By James Hibberd

TNT has canceled Steven Bochco's legal drama "Raising the Bar."

The move had been expected.

In a statement, the network said: "Everyone at TNT had a great experience working on "Raising the Bar" with Steven Bochco and the rest of the show's terrific cast and crew. We're proud of the series and appreciate the efforts of all of the creative people who were involved.

Unfortunately, ratings for "Raising the Bar's" second season did not reach the levels required for TNT to renew the series."

There's still no decision another TNT drama on the bubble, "Dark Blue."

Sad to go...

I did read on Futoncrtic that the 3 remaining episodes will air in 2010, probably after Ray Romano's Men of a Certain Age has it's winter finale.

That's surprising, although I watched it once and absolutely could not stand Jane Kaczmarek's judge character. That just completely turned me off of that show. I'm sure it was a good one, but watching her character made me want to strangle her! I did like Mark Paul Glossear, though!

Sorry to kinda change the subject, but I'm looking foreword to seeing that show, even though I don't really like Ray Ramano that much.
