Hollywood has been faced with some tough decisions lately. We’ve seen Disney and other major media companies cancel several upcoming movies and shows lately, including shows like The Wonder Years on ABC and Doogie Kamealoha, M.D on Disney+.
Now, another series will not return for a new season after reports indicate that ABC has canceled one of its comedies.
So far this year, Disney has canceled a few upcoming projects, like The Spiderwick Chronicles and Nautilus. Neither of these stories will move forward on Disney+, though their fate remains to be seen. Now, ABC(also owned by Disney) has canceled another TV series.
After a three-season run, ABC has canceled its comedy show Home Economics, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The sitcom was reportedly in limbo as part of the network’s 2022-23 slate for a while, but it seems like ABC made its decision to end the show.
The Hollywood Reporter noted that Home Economics had the “smallest Nielsen-measured audience among the five ABC comedies that aired during the regular September-to-May season in 2022-23.” The show followed three siblings and their families as they live at “vastly different levels of financial security.”
ABC’s crime drama High Potential has also been moved to a later debut. The change shifts the premiere from this season to fall 2024, per The Hollywood Reporter. As the SAG-AFTRA strike continues, we may see more movies and shows impacted in the future.
In the meantime, we’re always on the lookout for the latest Disney news, so stay tuned for more.
