the fall television season's first casualty

With each fall television season, new shows vie for a permanent place in the lineup. Some find an audience and stay on for years. Others encounter an early death. The first casualty of the new fall season seems to have arrived in the form of "Do Not Disturb". Though no official announcement has been made of its cancellation, the next episode is being pre-empted for an episode of "'Til Death", and many media outlets, including E Online and Mediaweek, are reporting that the show is gone.

The husband had been interested in trying out the show, but after one episode, he said it was pretty awful, and he was out. Too bad for Jerry O'Connell - I like him and know him mostly for "Crossing Jordan". His last show, "Carpoolers", was also cancelled. Better luck next time, Jerry.
