The Real Wedding Crashers: NBC Wants a Divorce

The Real Wedding Crashers on NBCI’m sure fans of series The Black Donnellys couldn’t be happier about this one. NBC is set to pull the reality show The Real Wedding Crashers after tonight’s broadcast and only three episodes.

Crashers debuted on April 23, 2007 and replaced Donnellys on the Monday night schedule. Crashers is loosely based on the 2005 movie The Wedding Crashers starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson and is produced by Ashton Kutcher’s production company. The series depicted various nuptials being interrupted by undercover crashers performing outlandish stunts. Unlike the Crashers movie, the bride and/or groom were in on the joke.

NBC will replace Crashers for the next two weeks (the rest of May sweeps) with new episodes of Law & Order: Criminal Intent. The Criminal Intent episodes will be then run again the following night at 9pm. Doesn’t NBC have any original programming left? Maybe Studio 60 or Donnellys?

The remaining episodes of The Real Wedding Crashers are expected to run during the summer months. Obviously this doesn’t bode well for the series’ future but, as is standard practice these days, NBC has not said that Crashers is officially cancelled. Stay tuned! TV Series Finale home page

I love “The Real Wedding Crashers”–yes, mean-spirited at times but so what? I can’t stop laughing…have taped every episode shown so I can see them again. Please save it–at least on cable, if nowhere else.

I really enjoyed wedding crashers for those who do not watch some of the other shows.WEDDING CRASHERS WAS A VERY GOOD IDEA i DON’T KNOW WHY THEY CHANGE IT MONDAY’S SHOWS ARE NOW BORING.

The Wedding Crashers was dreadfully bad. Bad setup, bad delivery, and bad wrap up. no wonder it got pulled so fast.

The Black Donelly’s, on the other hand, was an amazing show. Why they took it off the air because of a one week dip in the ratings? I’ll never know, but from the looks of most of these posts, the general populace wants it back. Monday night was the night I looked forward to: Heroes at 9 and TBD at 10, followed by sleep at 11. Ah well, I can always watch Fox from now on

The Real Wedding Crashers was by far the funniest show NBC had! It really made our Monday great to watch that show.

NBC if your reading this, you made a huge mistake taking that show off!

Crashers was a pretty crappy show. It was entertaining for about 15 minutes, but couldn’t really keep me from flipping channels. Sorry RWC.

I loved Crashers. I got tired of watching so many serious shows on tv until the wedding crashers came on. It made me laugh. It’s too bad that NBC can’t figure out a way to put both shows on the air so that both audiences can watch what they want to watch.

Wedding crashers was the best new show to air on TV for a long time and I’m still waiting for NBC to put it back on!! Please do so NBC!
