The Firm: NBC Reschedules Final Four Episodes

The Firm canceled show rescheduledAs fans of The Firm may have noticed, the cancelled legal drama was bumped from the schedule once again last Saturday night. As a result, NBC has adjusted their schedule and delayed the final four episodes by one week each.

If you watch the show via Hulu, you may have already seen the 19th episode. A note on the streaming website says, “Due to a programming error, Chapter 19 went up earlier than intended. We apologize for the error – it will become available again this weekend.”

You can see the revised airdates below, as well as brief episode descriptions:

“CHAPTER NINETEEN”
06/23/2012 (10:00PM – 11:00PM) (Saturday) : A KILLER NEW CASE – Joey Morolto (guest star Gianpaolo Venuta, “Being Human”) gives Mitch (Josh Lucas) an offer he can’t refuse — if Mitch defends his best friend from a murder charge, the McDeeres and the Moroltos will be square. As Abby (Molly Parker) tries to save her mother’s charity from a crooked accountant, she makes an unexpected realization about herself. Callum Keith Rennie and Natasha Calis also star.

“CHAPTER TWENTY”
06/30/2012 (10:00PM – 11:00PM) (Saturday) : When Mitch’s (Josh Lucas) client admits to a potentially damaging incident from his college days, Mitch has to face an aggressive prosecutor to prevent it from coming into the trial. Meanwhile, Abby (Molly Parker) has to decide if she is on board with working for Joey Morolto, Jr. (guest star Gianpaolo Venuta, “Being Human”). Juliette Lewis, Callum Keith Rennie and Natasha Calis also star.

“CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE”
07/07/2012 (10:00PM – 11:00PM) (Saturday) : Mitch (Josh Lucas) and his team scramble to come up with a viable defense in Patrick Walker’s case, forcing them to begin jury selection without a plan. Meanwhile, Joey Morolto, Jr. (guest star Gianpaolo Venuta, “Being Human”) implements a deadly strategy to regain control over his mob family. Juliette Lewis, Molly Parker, Callum Keith Rennie and Natasha Calis also star.

There’s no description available for the series finale but “Chapter Twenty-Two” is set to air on July 14th.

Can’t believe they are cancelling this show. They never gave it a chance, no advertising and constantly moving it around. I loved watching this, looked forward to it every week. Sometimes the networks do the strangest things. Maybe another network will see the value in this show and pick it up.

I am so very frustrated that NBC is cancelling another really great show. What kind of viewership do they expect on Saturday night…with no advertising. The people on this show are surely frustrated at how NBC gave them NO CHANCE for success. I hope another network picks up this show and gives it the chance it clearly deserves.

I think when you get a great show, and is delayed, and cancelled, it is a shame, what is the purpose of it, My Husband and I love the firm, great shows are cancelled without asking the public their opinion. Shame, shame, shame, we the public don’t seem to matter anymore.

Please don’t cancel the Firm, there has not been a great show for a while in a long time. Thank you,

I am unhappy that the firm has been canceled. With Law & Order, and Law & Order CI gone, it is hard for me to find anything decent to watch. I hope they do not wrap up the series because I hope someone else will have the brains to pick it. up. I loved watching it and looked forward to it every week. Josh is awesome, he is a great actor and so good – looking. This show deserves to stay on.

Once again the viewers lose out. Seems like at least more than one person enjoyed this unique show. Just can’t understand why all the stereotypical cop and lawyer shows remain and something out of the ordinary, like The Firm, gets cancelled. NBC, you need to realize when you have something good and keep it! I, like others, am hoping that another station will pick up the show and then NBC can sit back and watch their ratings tank!

I too am annoyed that NBC canceled this show. They screwed this show just as they screw all of their programming. I mean it when I say I won’t be tuning into their network next season. Any other network and this show would have been fine – they at least advertise their shows and don’t seem to skip them around as much.
