167LikesDon't know if it has been cancelled or not, but Fox has pulled Ben & Kate from their schedule, so that can't be a good thig.

Well, that's kinda too bad. I really didn't like it when it started (I've always found Nat Faxon to be a bit over the top), but it sort of grew on my - I enjoy both the women and I have a bit of a crush on Ben's friend.Originally Posted by razorbacker
being pulled right before sweeps is never a good sign.
If they had any faith, they'd leave it alone until after sweeps.
Without Christina, I think that show is done. What's the point without her?
I'm not surprised about Do No Harm. It was awful. I only watched the pilot - the second episode aired last night - but that was enough. It didn't matter how good or bad the actors were. I'm usually willing to give a show a few episodes to find its footing, but there was no way this one was going to get better because the problem was the ridiculous premise of the show.
ETA: I've read a few articles about Up All Night and I'm not surprised Christina jumped ship. Obviously, they're floundering. Switching from a single camera show to a multi-camera sitcom filmed in front of an audience and using a laugh track? Totally not what she signed up for.

I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "... I drank what?"
I don't even think it aired honestly - or if it did it was cursed with a single episode.
But honestly I seem to think that it didn't even air at all, meaning it has now created the official record of being canceled before it even runs.

Reading Critical's comments that it had aired, I apologize for the error. But it just shows you that the show was so bad I didn't even know it had aired.
I wasn't surprised when I read that Do No Harm was canceled. I watched part of the first episode of Do No Harm. Every day, without a choice, a brain surgeon ended up as his other personality. He kept checking his watch to make sure that nobody he knew was around right before he was scheduled to become his other personality. After making his rounds at a hospital, then checking his watch, he ended up in a room where there were two women kissing each other; and everyone else was laying around. That's all that I watched. The first show had a 0.9 rating, and the second show had a 0.7 rating. I don't know why they would even put that show on the air. Couldn't they tell from previewing Do No Harm that it wouldn't be successful? I read that there have been other TV shows that are taped, but never aired.
I watched the pilot, but didn't like it. Just wasn't interested in a show with a main character was a surgeon with MPD. That stretches credulity a bit too far, even for me.
