The alphabet network has dropped two of its unsuccessful midseason replacement series, Miss Guided and Cashmere Mafia. Based on their ratings, neither comes as much of a surprise.
Miss Guided centers around Becky Freeley (Judy Greer) as she starts working as a guidance counselor at her old high school. The single-camera sitcom debuted in March and ran for seven episodes. The premiere attracted less than 10 million viewers and dropped week after week. The final episode attracted just 4.3 million, ranking fourth in its timeslot. Though the series seemed an obvious choice for cancellation, the sitcom was reportedly being considered for renewal up until earlier today.
Mafia comes from Darren Starr’s production company and was compared with Sex in the City, though usually not kindly. The series focuses on four successful women who support each other in their business careers and personal lives. Critical reaction to the show wasn’t enthusiastic. The premiere attracted a decent 10.7 million viewers but the second episode drew under 6.2 million. The ratings continued to drop and the finale attracted just 4.8 million.
Now that Mafia’s been canned, Lucy Liu is expected to move to Dirty Sexy Money. ABC already renewed Money for season two and it’s expected to return in September. Stay tuned! 
As a teacher, I found Miss Guided hilarious. ABC, like the other stations, wonder why their viewership is going down? MAYBE IT IS BECAUSE YOU CANCEL EVERY GOOD SHOW YOU HAVE!
I Loved Miss Guided!
Sarah Jessica Parker look like she had a sex change, Cashmere Mafia had women that were worth looking at and better life story then drinking and sex
Cashmere Mafia is such an amazing show… people all over the world love it…. esp me from under down…. please don’t cancel the show!!!!
I am SOOOOOo pissed that MISS GUIDED was canceled…abc sucks!
Pleeeeeeeeeeeease bring back Cashmere Mafia. I really liked this show.
Burn, I’m so glad that gawd awful Cashmere Mafia was canceled. It was atrocious. There is no way that it could ever complete with the inimitable SATC. That’s why SATC is now a major film. There’s only one Sarah Jessica Parker and SATC. ‘Nuff said, honey.
No!!!!!!!!!!!! Cashmere mafia was the only reason to why i started watch tv again!! why don’t people have good taste???
I love Mia Mason clothes, shoes, and bags. OMG! Please bring back Cashmere Mafia.
[…] you should know what to do here. For the love of that Jason, come […]
please DO bring back Cashmere Mafia…. pllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaasssseeee…
I really loved Miss Guided! I am really disappointed….
Bring back Cashmere Mafia. These networks don’t even give a show a chance before they cancel it. I’m tired of all of the good shows being cancelled.
::sobs:: Noo!!! Come back Miss Guided!
Oh, god…Tell me they’re not just gonna waste Friday nights with “Repurposed” shows!
