AAaaarrrrggggg!!!! I put together a new lawcast reviewing a new show on the WB "Just Legal" and was putting the final touches on it by checking some stuff about Don Johnson (one of the stars) and found out it's been cancelled.
I liked it too. But I would guess the demographics killed it. I don't know what the ratings drop from the lead in show (7th Heaven) was, but I'm guessing it was considerable. Don Johnson is, gasp, a real grown-up, and the kid playing the second lead was just too geeky to attract the right age group. At least in the view of the advertisers.
I was agnostic. I saw elements which I thought could develop into a really good show but they needed a year or two to develop it. It wasn't the kind of show which becomes an instant hit; it was the kind which has to build a following.
