NBC has reportedly cancelled their new Next Caller TV series before a single episode has aired. The peacock network ordered seven episodes of the Dane Cook sitcom but halted production after only four were produced. Word is that they weren’t happy with the direction that the show was going in.
It looks unlikely that the four episodes will ever air but you never know. Times are tough and some of the shows that NBC does believe in are performing dismally anyway (re: Animal Practice, Guys with Kids, the Thursday line-up). They recently announced they’d be airing the Mockingbird Lane pilot so it’s not a stretch that they could end up airing Next Caller someday as well.
If Next Caller never sees the light of day, here’s a sample of what you’re missing:
What do you think? Would you be interested in watching Next Caller or did NBC made the right decision to cancel it? Is it better than some of the network’s other sitcoms?
Dane Cook, enough reason to cancel.
