BECKER is cancelled? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was shocked, that's what I read on TKTV:
11.4.03 - Becker is just about done. No, not cancelled. Just done, at least for now. Variety reports when Becker's 13 episode commitment has been fulfilled, the show will close shop for the season and wait to see if it finds its way back on the schedule next Fall. Come midseason, CBS new sitcom series The Stones is set to launch with its 9 episodes on Wednesdays at 930p following King of Queens.

Wasn't there planned a full season? What's up with CBS???

Becker did what cbs asked of it. It stabilized the time slot.

A full season was never ordered. It was always just for 13 episodes. The people at CBS did exactly what they said they were going to do. It might come back next fall though.
