The bonds of friendship only go so far at NBC.

The network has pulled its midseason comedy "BFF" from its schedule after only four airings, TVLine.com reports.





Series star and executive producer Lennon Parham tweeted Friday:

"BFF Fans: Wanted to let you know that our show is being taken off the air until the summer. Hoping to post ep 5 & 6 online asap.... Jessica St. Clair and I CANNOT thank you enough for the love and support of our little show. You guys are truly the best."





The comedy premiered on April 4 and attracted 3.9 million viewers and a 1.2 demo rating.

Its fourth outing, however, only drew 2.65 million viewers and a 0.8.

A second installment of "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" will fill "BFF's" time slot on Wednesdays at 8:30/7:30c.

i've been watching the show, it is sometimes painful but has some good moments - the little black girl is HILARIOUS and the true star of the show.

Argh. I'm unhappy to hear that. I think the show could have done well.

I love her! I wish she had a show. I thought the rest of the show was lame.

So true, without her the show would not have had any laughs.
