There won’t be a second season for TV Land’s Jennifer Falls sitcom. The cable channel has cancelled the comedy after one season of 10 episodes.
Created by Matthew Carlson, Jennifer Falls follows single mother Jennifer Doyle (Jaime Pressly) after she loses her high-paying job. She and her daughter move in with Jennifer’s mother Maggie (Jessica Walter) so that she can reassess her life. The rest of the cast includes Missi Pyle, Ethan Suplee, Nora Kirkpatrick, and Dylan Gelula.
This marks the second one-season cancellation by TV Land. Kirstie — starring sitcom vets Kirstie Alley, Michael Richards and Rhea Perlman — was dropped in July after a 12 episode run.
What do you think? Did you enjoy Jennifer Falls? Do you think it should have been renewed for a second season or, do you agree with the cancellation?
TV Land is frantically trying to figure out how to stay above water and it appears that every decision they make is the wrong one. A sign of the total desperation they are in. Was trying to watch Brady Bunch the other morning, I noticed the voices were a little too high pitched, the show was totally over-compressed, “Peter” was walking over to the kitchen table to sit down in oh, so obvious fast motion, and started talking like the “chipmunks”. Not only do they add 5, even 10 minutes to a 30 min show to cram more commercials in,… Read more »
It had good energy, why do they keep canceling everything
This show was awsome
I have no idea what TVLand is doing but whoever is making these decisions needs cancelled! First it was Happily Divorced, the Kirstie, now Jennifer Falls. They keep changing their line ups when the audience LOVES retro tv like The Nanny and Roseanne and Mash and I Love Lucy. We beg and post our displeasure only to have them removed. Now they want us to watch Younger? I don’t think so. It’s a nouveau thirty something crossed with the office. Didn’t like them either. TvLand is canceling good shows but we are to buy into the blasphemous Soul Man? No… Read more »
I just found out. I was wondering why I hadn’t seen any previews of the next season. It’s a great show! What in the world is whomever responsible for cancelling the show thinking? The only thing that seems valid is if they thought that the actors were asking for too much money because of its popularity and couldn’t afford it.
I think TVLand is crazy to cancel this show. It was funny and had plenty of room of improvement. Sad days ahead.
I’m so sad! Jennifer Falls was my favorite new show. It was laugh out loud funny. I really wish it was coming back. Incredibly talented cast and great writing.
I agree!
My husband and I loved that show and kept looking for it this season. So sorry it was cancelled. It should have a another chance. There were lots of a venues for the story line to go with all the characters. Maybe another consideration for this one.
Sooooooooo mad that Jennifer Falls is cancelled! At least give it a chance. My 13 year old daughter and I love this show and could not wait to watch each episode. Not too happy. Seems like the TV I like has been getting cancelled! Loved Betrayal and that got canned for Resurrection?!!! Really? Jennifer Falls was just a fun watch! No weird stuff or killings! Give it a chance. Many shows take a bit to get going.
And, I also never heard or got to see Jennifer Falls either!
It was cute, but I can’t help but notice that Jessica Walters, seem’s to be the kiss of death for any sitcom she appears in, look what happened to the other show.
Retired at 35 was a great show, but I know what you mean. At least George Segal is in a renewed sitcom on ABC (The Goldbergs). He’s very funny!
I guess I will be the ONLY one hear who has not only heard of Jennifer Falls, but watched & loved EVERY episode!! We have been watching all of the TVLand sitcoms, and unfortunately, some got cancelled. It’s too bad, because this was a good one! But then again, so was Retired at 35, Happily Divorced, and Kirstie. Well, as for people asking where the promos were for these shows……why, on TVLAND, of course! We watch all the older shows, and you can’t watch the network without seeing those promos!! Once again, great show, great story line, very sad it’s… Read more »
Typo above……”hear” should have been spelled “here”. Didn’t see it until I hit submit & then it was too late! Sorry about that one!! 😉
I see that some people had not heard of this show. Wish I could say that. I’ll never be able to unsee the first pathetic episode, nor the second (even worse) because I thought “Surely no one in their right mind would blow through money, producing such a losing show. Things have to get better.” Goes to show how dead wrong a person can be about what all too often passes for good TV today. Can’t wait for Trophy Wife Season 2.
I have never heard of it either. If they want to have a show that bites of real. Have the high wage earning household member find out that the only job now available is working in a convenience store and that’s if they have pull.
Never even heard of Jennifer Falls. Had I have heard Of Kirstie now that I would have checked out. Do they ever ‘promo’ these? Any where besides TVLand??? Might have helped.
