ABC Entertainment president Paul Lee held court at the Television Critics Assoc. summer press tour on Monday morning, where he fielded questions about the network’s treatment of "Trophy Wife".

Lee said the ratings “always disappointed,” even when they sampled reruns on Wednesdays. “We tried hard toward the end of the season to create promotable episodes,” he said, “but we really couldn’t bring people to it.”

The bottom-line is that right from the start, ABC dropped the ball when it came to scheduling Trophy Wife.
