its not necessarily bad news for these shows, they are doing this to replace 666 park avenue which they have cancelled and yanked the remaining episodes from airing. So it could be seen as good if they are airing this instead of some other random new series to fill in a gap, dunno?In case anyone missed it, ABC is showing new episodes two nights a week starting tonight. So normal Tuesday episode, and another new one Sundays at 10:30. Which is probably a bad thing, classic "burn off the episodes" treatment they do with shows they just want done and gone. Doing the same thing with Happy Endings. So their two best comedies. Yeah.
Show is fine without him. It's notgoodwithout him, but it's inoffensive enough that I wouldn't call it painful to watch. It just that when he is there it's awesome.To be fair, the show was pretty painful to watch anytime JVB wasn't on the screen. Hopefully he can get on another show quickly after this. He could even be playing himself again, that's fine.
Which has bugged the shit out of me to no end. This last Happy Endings episode was out of order too.I like this show a lot but ABC does seem to treat in shabbily, they are not even airing the episodes in continuity order. Some have June in her new job and the next she is back at the coffee shop.
They held over a few episodes from last season to make this season longer without having to do a full season order, which is smart considering the show hadn't proved itself in the ratings. But yeah, for some reason they just decided to mix those episodes in with the new ones. The first season was originally supposed to end with the episode where they go to the Hamptons, which is after the "Dancing with the Stars" stuff and right before June gets her new job. It's not a show that that has much of a continuing narrative, but it does have enough of one between the two seasons that just randomly throwing them together is jarring and confusing.I like this show a lot but ABC does seem to treat in shabbily, they are not even airing the episodes in continuity order.

Guh.Fucking cancelled.
Their lease is up. ABC has pulled "Don't Trust the B---- in Apt. 23" off its schedule, according to reports.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the network pulled the low-rated series from its Tuesday night comedy block, effective immediately.
The Krysten Ritter-starring sitcom was already preempted tonight for the two-hour debut of Anthony Bourdain's new cooking show, "The Taste." Starting next week, back-to-back episodes of "Happy Endings" will air in place of "Apt. 23" until "Dancing with the Stars" returns on Tuesdays in March, THR reports.
Co-star James Van Der Beek told fans of the show's fate via Twitter:
Sad to say ABC has pulled #Apt23 and will not be airing the 8 remaining episodes any time soon. Translation: we've basically been cancelled.

You've got to give ABC props for ever picking us up in the first place. They took a shot at something original & edgy. I respect them for it

There are still eight episodes of "Apt. 23" that have yet to air, Entertainment Weekly reports, and the network hasn't decided when, or if, they will be broadcast. According to EW, those episodes could end up on the air at some point, possibly in the summer.
