ABC Cancels "Charlie’s Angels"
Oct 14, 2011
by Lindsay Silberman

ABC has officially canceled its "Charlie's Angels" remake. Production has shut down, but the show will continue to air for the time being, TVGuide.com has learned.

The reboot, which stars Minka Kelly, Annie Ilonzeh and Rachael Taylor, has been struggling since it premiered on Sept 22.

"Angels'" third episode, which aired on Oct. 6, was Thursday night's lowest-rated show, as its ratings plunged 20 percent -- with 5.9 million viewers and a 1.2 rating in the adults 18-to-49 demo.

I wonder how many episodes they had in the can before production shut-down. Maybe enough for a "complete series" dvd release?

dakert · 10-14-2011, 04:56 PM

Well, I sure didnt see this coming

catlover79 · 10-14-2011, 09:45 PM

I am SHOCKED, I tell you!!!

Brian Damage · 10-14-2011, 09:48 PM

Now that the shock has worn off, Minka Kelly is truly a star in the making. She just needs the right vehicle for her talents.

Na na na na, Na na na na, Hey hey hey, Good bye!!!

dakert · 10-14-2011, 11:44 PM

What are Minka Kelly's talents?

Thought it was a bad idea and didn't think it would last, but it got canned fast. Years ago they gave shows more time to find an audience.

Wow, big surprise there....

I'm disappointed the show got cancelled because i liked what i saw. F*ck ABC network for cancelling it. Give the show a chance damn. I don't like good shows getting cancelled quick just because a lot of people aren't watching. I wonder if the show is gonna come on dvd if they did a lot of episodes. If it does come on dvd, i'll buy it. I didn't know the new Knight Rider that got cancelled was on dvd until i saw it at the bookstore. I wanna get that because i only saw one episode of new Knight Rider and i was a fan of the old Knight Rider.

The women just were NOT attractive enough to pull this off. They were heroin-chic runway models who couldn't act their way out of a dripping wet paper bag. With obviously no skills, I wounder whose husbands they had to service to get those roles and whether or not we will be hearing about how these same adultourous producers will be blackmailed or sued now that the series has rightfully crashed and burned.

Remaining 4 episodes will still air, as of now.

Minka Kelly is very attractive. Did you watch the show? She is stunning!

JamesG · 10-15-2011, 02:37 PM

Rachael Taylor is stunning IMO.

Minka Kelly is pretty too, I know her from "FNL", but I like Rachael Taylor much better.

I'll probably check out the remaining eps. The series is already programmed on my DVR.
