A couple days ago, Eastwick series creator and executive producer Maggie Friedman said that she was “furious” over ABC’s cancellation of the series. She’s apparently had some time to think about her choice of words and regrets the statement.
Friedman wrote, “The other day, when we were discussing the cancellation of Eastwick, I misspoke in the worst possible way. The word ‘furious’ was poorly chosen by me. You had said to me that ‘the fans are understandably furious’ and so I agreed that I was too, but the truth is, I’m not.”
She continued, “I see that word now in print attributed to me and it’s very painful, because it seems to imply I am angry with ABC and nothing could be further from the truth. They treated me really well. I am not the least bit furious, with anyone. That’s simply not the kind of person I am. Yes, I’m sad about the show being cancelled, because it was creatively fulfilling and tons of fun to make and an amazing group of people, but I’m not angry.”
What do you think? Are you “furious” with ABC or just “sad” that Eastwick didn’t reach a bigger audience and was cancelled?

I agree with you OOU
F-*-*-K YOU ABC !
Very aggravated. I get so tired of investing in a show and the network pulling it without enough time for viewer commitment. Let’s see. How long did ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT stay on the air? Longer than this.
THIS SO SUCKS! I LOVE THIS SHOW!
I’m bummed they canceled it. It was just getting really good! They’ll probably replace it with another boring reality show!
I was Furious that Eastwick was cancelled, and I agree with Sheila Peace that because it was creative, unusual, witty, and great acting, etc..of course it got canned. I just hope another network or even cable will pick up “Eastwick”.
It was creative, unusual, witty, mysterious, intrigueing, with a superb cast. Of course it was cancelled.
Why would they cancel that show. They always cancel all the good shows. Eastwick was something different and new and interesting, now everyone is gonna be left wondering about it. Can’t it be saved?
I think Mandy Wittenberg said it best. Please save this show.
I agree with Tyler Webb. He said it the best!
I am absolutely furious! What reason was there to cancel it? Eastwick was by far my favorite show that has aired on ABC since…well really ever! Lol. But I am very upset Eastwick was cancelled. I really enjoyed it.
i’m very angry that everytime i like a show from abc they cancelled it.
i’m going to stop look at that channel.
I loved this show, finally something fun and interesting to watch. Not depressing, but exciting to your imagination. I’m really disappointed that this show has been cancelled. We need to bring it back or finish airing the episodes.
I was pretty upset that they canned it
My favorite show!
