Happily Divorced: Not Renewed for Season Three, But…

by Trevor Kimball, May 2, 2012

no season 3 for Happily Divorced A few days ago, we reported that TV Land had renewed Happily Divorced for a third season of 12 episodes. The news was first announced by co-creators (and former spouses) Fran Drescher and Peter Marc Jacobson. It now appears that the news has changed.

TV Land has issued a press release indicating that the the 12 episode order is part of the current second season, bringing the installment total to 24. Of the cable channel’s slate of original sitcoms, only Hot in Cleveland and Happily Divorced have received full season orders.

The first dozen episodes of season two are currently airing on Wednesday nights and are expected to finish running by the end of May. So far, they’ve averaged a 0.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.16 million total viewers.

The second half of season two is expected to air later this year.

Here’s the press release from TV Land:

“Happily Divorced” stars and is inspired by the real-life story of sitcom favorite Fran Drescher (“The Nanny”), and revolves around Fran, a Los Angeles florist who finds out after 18-years of marriage that her husband is gay.

I hope it is. I had never seen the show until I bought season 1. I wasn’t concerned because I love Fran Dresher so I knew it would be good and it is. I think it’s better than the Nanny. Why do these networks cancel the shows when they’re so good. Please renew season 3.

It’s called RATINGS!!! If the ratings are high enough the show doesn’t make it! If it’s not the ratings then maybe the actors are going some place else in their career… either way, obviously she knows what she is doing!

Love the show. Its was just starting to make its impact, could maybe use a little reworking to. Change it up a little. You know, tweek out a few edges, because it has such a great premise, and who doesn’t love Fran?

Please bring back Happily Divorced. I love Fran and the show was soooo funny. Every time you have a good show, you take it off. What about us, the people who love it?!? Please, please, please bring it back for a 3rd season.
