MOWE Cancelled
According to various sources, Christian's show has been canceled. They are supposedly going to stop production after wrapping the ninth episode. I
find it terrible that NBC didn't even try giving it a new time slot before axing it. It seems that if they truly wanted it to succeed they would
have moved it to a different time slot to give it another chance. Anyway, here is a link to the Hollywood Reporter story: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i85a08b80d9eabe094c6a65ebe4c2d22f

Aw man, that fricken sux! Well, knowing him, he's got bigger things up his sleeves. It was a screwy time slot, if you've got kids especially.
dang!

What is this. It is crazy to think, why would they take this away ?

 I got a e-mail from NBC.COM saying the same thing.
I was thinking maybe we could get a petition to have it moved to cable. I think it would be better on cable anyway. I just hope Christian is o.k.

Horrible news.
I registered for the board just to vent my frustration. I think it's pretty obvious that Monday Night Football pulls a huge audience, I was hoping
the network would give the show a chance to build an audience.
My fingers are crossed that a cable network might pick up the show. Somebody call FX!
Anyways, I did really enjoy the show and everyone involved did a fantastic job.

I'm glad I've been taping onto dvd each episode! This happened to Men in Trees and Cane and they have yet to release them on dvd...very sad news! I
feel they barely gave the show a chance, it just started!

very sad
I find it very upsetting that they are canceling the show, this has become one of my favorite shows, I love Christian's acting and especially how
well he does a split personality! Kudos to you Christian! My only hope is that maybe Scfic channel might pick it up. I am going to miss my Monday
nights with Christian.

Well sheesh, already? We know it wasn't Christian's abilities, more like the audience taking the show for granted. They took the football instead? I
bet if he had had a better night like a weekend it would have done great. And 9' oclock wasn't groovy imo.

Sorry, I'm just really upset it was canceled.
Maybe he will go back to England and do plays?

have at least premeried it at a good time, and then after everyone ways hooked they could move it to the crappy slot.

It's too bad they couldn't at least have completed the season... make some sort of closure on the show. I wonder what they are going to show in
place of it.

Don;t worry about it Christian baby, it was not you!
You were great in it. I think the timeslot was an issue. The show is so interesting, and it wasn't even confusing like some of those shows they
carry. This is horrible.

Oh, no. This is terrible.
I'm really sorry Mr. Slater, if you are reading
I just want to say that I thought you were great,
that the show was excellent, and that you were
charming and exciting and I thought it was super
that you did dual roles, I know you must be a hard
worker, I see that for your age you seem to
have accomplished a lot. I REALLY don't understand
why they would ever do that.

I was so upset to hear! I was loving it, the only thing I disliked about it was the time slot, which I'm sure is why a lot of people couldn't watch
either. NBC could have done some re-arranging and given My Own Worst Enemy a new time slot before they decided to axe the show.
I plan to watch until it is officially gone though...

Of course, we all will won't we? Because it's quite
possible that if we all do, and we get all our
friends and relatives to watch too, the new ratings
and any protests about cancelling the show might
just change someone's (at NBC's) mind. You never
know, maybe it's not too late!

Hang on guys christian gets knocked down sometimes but he has never been out. So just hang on christian has something up his sleeve I am sure that
will keep his fans happy. A new movie or even a new play perhaps or maybe we will get lucky and another station will pick up MOWE,so don't get down
Christian will always be around in some way.
Be thankful for every day

Even more annoying is that it appears that NBC didn't actually cancel Lipstick Jungle, just MOWE. Yet Lipstick Jungle has lower ratings. It
doesn't make since at all. It has to be due to production cost otherwise why would they cancel the show with higher ratings yet keep the lower rated
show? I don't know, but the whole thing is just crappy.

Oh, so they were being cheap, huh? dang! I guess good shows cost more,
that isn't surprising now is it? They could have cancelled the crappy one, and used that budget to make MOWE the best show they ever made. NBC sucks!
I bet CS didn't even get paid so well, but then he probably just did it for the fun of being spy. Sounds like it was fun and he sure played both
parts well.

OH hell no!!!!! I am so addicted to this series, not just because of Christian but it is genuinely a really great series with great story line
ect!!!
I'm not happy, this calls for emailing in mass. I emailed NBC, maybe if enough people complain they may just keep it.

As fans we do have a voice. Fans have saved other shows. I remember back in the day(this is really going to tell my age)the fans saved Designing
women on CBS. So as fans we do have a voice. It all depends on if they will listen to us.
