The Playboy Club Cancelled
 

I called this one. NBC always has one or two they cancel after a few episodes. This one had disaster written all over it.

Sorry Rochard.

No big surprise. It was lame. What a shame - so much potential.

I'll stick with Sons of Anarchy which is on tonight.

I have a feeling Whitney will be the next cancellation ...

Too bad we can't give you the same kind of boot. :1orglaugh

I was just starting to get into it too

I avoid NBC pretty much because of this. They cut and run pretty quickly.

If they make it past the first few weeks I might take a look.

I'll be watching that on a 70" tv , need to pick up some rum

The problem is this show was meant for HBO for the simple reason of pushing good storylines.

The writers were phoning it in

Who didn't see that coming, even the previews looked like a horrible storyline.

People still watch TV?

in the 80's when snow was rolling maybe would have lasted a season or two.

I tried to get into the PB Club show, but it was just sooooo slow and didn't leave you anticipating anything more.

Yes, if HBO had of produced it it would very likely be a different story.

And more bunny nudity.

Who wants to see a sanitized, network friendly vision of Playboy club debauchery set in the 60's?

I would have asked that question, then said "no greenlight, bitches".

What, 3 episodes in and one of the main parts of the plot, the mob guy poking around every so often looking for his missing daddy was already getting annoying. I kept thinking why doesn't someone just push that guy's face in already and be done with his persistant badgering of the new girl.

This series won't be missed, at least not in it's present form. Like I said I'd love to see what HBO (or Showtime, or even Movie Central for that matter) could do with the idea. It really needed the level of mystery/intrigue/violence & sexuality that only those networks seem to be able to deliver.

Thanks Hef!!! ;-))

I don't really watch these stupid sitcom shows so I know I wont miss it

Should have been an HBO show

Damn, I knew I was forgetting to watch something.

was kinda lame IMO, not surprised

i really enjoyed the playboy club

I just started watching these on Hulu too :( Wasn't that bad of a show. Reminds me of how Outsourced was canned fairly quickly.

Outsourced just wasn't renewed. It got a full first season. They actually gave it a chance, but killed it when they tried to do three hours of sitcoms on Thursday nights.

Gay ass shit...

I gave an episode a try.. its just dry.. i expected more edge..

a show to watch in new season is PAN AM which is pretty good so far.

:2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

Pan Am won't last either.

They ordered a full season of Whitney and Up All Night. Free Agents though looks to be getting the Axe soon.

The show sucks to be honest

me too:thumbsup

You did not miss much

u got that right. i was just watching the latest while i was working and i almost had to take a nap. whats with all these period pieces? is it because the modern world sucks ass? the 60s-70s werent much better..

Dexter is back on tho, so all is not lost..

never saw this show

It's because Mad Men, which takes place in the 60s has been a huge hit for AMC. They always try to copy what works for someone else.
