Studio 60 is one a a very few decent shows on TV why would NBC replace it with a bad Sopranos wannabe written,directed and produced by one of the worst hacks in Hollywood? Did someone lose a bet?

Studio 60 will be rescheduled. NBC is struggling to figure out how to promote a show that has most of its audience watching it on DVR.
[From the links below]
The lackluster ratings for "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" have been pretty well-publicized. However, Nielsen has just released numbers showing that it is being watched by more people than originally thought. It tops the list of "time-shifted" programs, a term Nielsen uses for programs recorded on DVR and TiVo, this season. This probably isn't that surprising, given that NBC has been making much of the fact that "Studio 60's" audience tends to be more "upscale," "living in homes with $75,000-plus and $100,000-plus incomes and in homes where the head of household has four or more years of college." Adding in the numbers of people who use DVR to watch the show up to a week after an episode airs, the show adds nearly 11 percent to its total audience. This means more people are watching the show than originally thought and watch it later than other broadcast shows.

You know, I would have agreed, but Studio 60 is starting to feel like it's been taken over by executives. The writing has lost its feeling, and the character choices seem ratings driven. Why did Danny and the President of the network hook up? And how did she get 9 months pregnant in a week? Why did Matt get an overnight drug addiction? It all just feels like desperation moves lately. It's sad, because I really liked the show early in the season, but it feels like the network is ruining it.

I hope not. I think Studio 60 is a very good show. I hope they don't pull the plug too early on it. But I have yet to find anything confirming that they cancelled it, so keep your fingers crossed.
