Jenna Elfman’s CBS sitcom, Accidentally on Purpose, completed its freshman season last week and she and the rest of the cast (Jon Foster, Lennon Parham, Grant Show, Nicolas Wright, Ashley Jensen, and Pooch Hall) are anxiously waiting to hear if the TV show will be renewed or cancelled.
The CBS series has been a joy for the veteran sitcom actress to do and Elfman recently told FOX News “The more people watch, the better our chances are at getting a second season, which I really hope we get, because I really enjoy doing the show.”
Unfortunately, the show’s prospects don’t look very good at this point. The ratings weren’t as high as the network wanted and even last week’s finale didn’t bring high ratings. It brought in a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demo and just 5.23 million viewers. Unfortunately, that’s a new ratings low for Accidentally on Purpose and CBS has other promising sitcoms waiting in the wings.
If Accidentally on Purpose is somehow lucky enough to escape cancellation, Elfman is looking forward to seeing how Billie and Zack handle parenthood together.
A mother of two, she told ET, “I think it is going to be hilarious to see this couple as parents. They are like two different generations. Parenting raises some amazing issues. My husband and I have been together 18 years. We hit new levels of conflict and dilemma and love. Everything that a relationship has magnifies when you bring a child into it.”
What do you think? Would you like to see how they handle parenthood or was the finale a good way to end Accidentally on Purpose?

I would like to see this series renewed, as I am a 29 year old with a pregnant girlfriend who is 38. She and I have watched the complete series a couple of times because we can totally relate to the age difference, as well as many of the standard pregnancy hormonal fun times 🙂 It is absolutely hysterical and it would be awesome to see how Billie and Zack raise a child.
I would like to see Accidentally on Purpose renewed. It is enjoyable, excellent acting
by all.
This sitcom makes me laugh out loud every episode. I am rooting for its return!
I really want to see the 2 attempt to rasie their kid. season 2!!
