We reported a couple days ago that the critically-lauded but low-rated Pushing Daisies was finally returning to ABC on May 30th. It was suspected that Eli Stone and Dirty Sexy Money would be back as well and we now have confirmation.
Eli Stone, which stars Jonny Lee Miller, Victor Garber and Natasha Henstridge, was cancelled after two short seasons on the air. The last episode to air, “Two Ministers,” was shown on December 30, 2008. The four remaining episodes will be burned off at 10pm on consecutive Saturday nights; June 20th, June 27th, July 4th, and July 11th. The series finale revolves around Eli having a vision and believing that one of his friends will perish in a plane crash.
Dirty Sexy Money, starring Peter Krause, Donald Sutherland and William Baldwin, was also cancelled after two brief seasons. The most recent installment to be broadcast, “The Organ Donor,” was shown way back on December 17, 2008. Money will take over the Saturday 10pm timeslot from Stone and the four unaired episodes (including the preempted Thanksgiving installment) will run on July 18th, July 25th, August 1st, and August 8th.
The series finale of Money is full of surprises. Simon tells Nick why he hates the Darlings and makes a confession about Nick’s father. Lisa decides to write a tell-all book and Karen embarks on a long-overdue relationship.
The second seasons of both Stone and Money are expected to be released on DVD but the release dates haven’t been announced yet.

what is wrong with this station to let eli stone go?
i enjoyed the sho very much…
I loved DVD , I want to see more seasons..please ..must continue…
I am soo upset to hear Dirty Sexy Money is cancelled!
I absolutely loved that show! I actually got my boyfriend to watch it with me and it gets taken away! It was getting so intense.
Loved the show! Just watched the last episode, we recorded it. The show was awesome much better than alot of the other shows. Hopefully someone else will pick it up. I was left hanging, hope to at least find out the end. BRING IT B
If this show was going to be cancelled why were there so many story lines left hanging in the last aired episode?
Bring back this show. It was one of the better programs on TV.
I looked forward to it every week.
Dirt Sexy Money, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back
Please Please bring back DSM, loved it, so enjoyable, cancel something else bring back Dirty Sexy Money, I am starting a petition
I can’t believe two of the best shows on television were cancelled! Intelligent storylines, great dialogue, fantastic acting, and characters that we connect to – replaced with boring reality programs. Wake up and get in touch with your viewers!
DSM was a wonderful show. The acting was wonderful and the cast was great!
ABC has lost me as a viewer along with NBC. All my favorite shows have been canceled and I don’t understand why. First the strike threw all shows into a spin and we the viewers had to wait and then try and relocate our shows.
DSM, Eli Stone, Boston Legal (ABC) Lipstick Jungle (NBC) The Starter Wife were all canceled and were my favorites.
We have rotten reality shows to thank for this!
What the HELL was ABC thinking?!?!!!
DIRTY SEXY MONEY WAS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
everyone in my work place is considering cutting out ABC all together, think about your decision and put DSM back on air fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM HIGHLY UPSET THAT DIRTY SEXY MONEY HAS BEEN CANCELLED. THE NETWORK HAS LOST THEIR MIND BY DOING THIS, THEY HAD THREE TOP A LISTER ACTORS ON THIS SHOW BLAIR UNDERWOOD, BILLY BALDWIN AND DONALD SUTHERLAND AND YOU GUYS JUST PISS THEM AWAY. NOT A GOOD LOOK FOR ABC YOU ARE LOSING A LOT OF VIEWERS, ABC JUST MIGHT LOSE THE NETWORK IN ALL. (THINK ABOUT IT, SOAPS IS NOT THE ONLY SHOWS THAT WILL SAVE ABC)
dirty sexy Money was the best show ever!…I wish they would bring it back!
I really enjoyed this series, Dirty Sexy Money. The storylines and the acting was very well done and enjoyable to watch.
If a ((REAL)) channel like Showtime, HBO or maybe TNT were to see this series is available and that there really was a fan base, maybe they would have the insight to pick this show up and continue it. I know I would be happy as well as a lot of other people too!!!
I am very dissapointed that Eli Stone and Dirty Sexy Money 2 shows that I really liked are not coming back. I would have missed the last few episodes if I had not had it scheduled to tape on a recurring basis with my DVR. I have to say I am so tired of them cancelling good shows to put on yet another stupid reality tv show.
I can only hope that the idiots that keep cancelling all the shows that I like will go on a permanent vacation and leave my programming alone.
I love DSM and I hope it has not been cancelled just when it was really getting good. If Nick’s dad is still alive that will open up a whole new can of worms and will really be good. Please let this show continue it is one of the few I watch as I am tired of and really hate the reality shows. Thank you
