TV News: ABC Cancels Low-Rated Comedy ‘Better With You’
CHICAGO – We said earlier this week that ABC would have to choose one of their three comedies — “Happy Endings,” “Mr. Sunshine,” and “Better With You” and we predicted/hoped that “Happy” would be the favorite. We were right.
“Better With You” has been canceled, following the announcements that “Happy Endings” and “Body of Proof” had been renewed while “Brothers & Sisters,” “Mr. Sunshine,” “V,” “No Ordinary Family,” “Detroit 1-8-7,” and “Off the Map” have been cancelled.
It’s also been rumored that ABC is prepping 10 new programs, which will be announced on Tuesday at their official upfronts.
