"Six Degrees" Cancelled, "October Road" Returns
ABC has changed their mind. Again. "Six Degrees" is off the schedule effective immediately and "October Road" will be back next week after an all-new "Grey's Anatomy" to conclude its 6-episode run with the remaining 2 episodes.
Although the network is still giving its midseason comedy "Notes from the Underbelly" post-Grey's premiere this week with 2 back-to-back episodes, the comedy will then move into its new home: Wednesdays at 8:30pm.
That means Thursdays at 10 will look like this: "Notes from the Underbelly" (April 12,) "October Road" (April 19,) "October Road: Season Finale" (April 26,) and "Grey's Anatomy: 2-hour spin-off episode" (May 3.)
It is not clear at this point if ABC will air "Men In Trees" or some other programming in the timeslot as of May 10.
As for "Six Degrees", the freshman drama dropped to a new season low of 3,18 million viewers last Friday and will therefore be replaced with repeats of "Wife Swap" affective April 13.
ABC has also yanked its midseason reality series "Great American Dream Vote" effective immediately.
In related news, FOX has halted production on David E.Kelley's Friday night drama "Wedding Bells" after only 7 episodes. Last week the show scored less than five million viewers finishing behind The CW's WWE Smackdown.

Good, the stupid reality show and Six Degrees are gone, both horrid shows. I almost hope ABC yanks Men In Trees after its next season premiere. October Road is actually a pretty good series, I only hope that Traveler can survive too. If it gets decent ratings, it may just show up next Winter.
Why cancel after airing ONE new episode??? they even had a 'next week on...' preview... ridiculous how 'viewers' make such a difference. Give it some time... ABC is the one that put it on hiatus and didn't market it correctly to let us know when it would be coming back.... If ABC does this with LOST, I'm never watching TV again... My TIVO is beside itself...lol
BOO
Six degrees is a great show, I have been following it and am majorly bummed I won't get the pieces resolved. At least it was an original idea.
