Bad news for all you Men in Trees fans: the ABC drama has been canceled.
As Jenny Bicks, creator of the show, told TV Guide's Michael Ausiello:
"I wish the show had not been moved six times and put onto two long hiatuses. No show could survive that."
So true.
It seems to be a trend these days... if a show doesn't get excellent ratings after it's first two airings, it gets moved to another -- usually worse -- time slot. And if the show still doesn't do well, but is somehow luckily enough to stay on the air, it might even get moved a few more times. Apparently it's supposed to help the show -- but really, how can even the loyal fans keep track of when it airs?
Men in Trees will return to ABC with its last few episodes on May 28. If it's any solace to viewers who don't want to be left hanging, the Men in Trees team prepared for the possible cancellation by shooting an alternate season finale that will now work as the series ender.
