The WB pulls the plug on Felicity
 

Cue ''Pomp and Circumstance'': Felicity will not only bid farewell to the University of New York this May, she'll also say buh-bye to prime-time TV. The WB has decided not to renew the four-year-old show for next year. ''One of the joys of the series was this coming-of-age story about Felicity Porter in college,'' says WB Entertainment president Jordan Levin. ''It's the end of her senior year. It felt like a natural place to close the story.''

Not to mention a financially prudent one. The WB is paying close to $1 million per episode for a show that averages a mere 3.3 million viewers (it used to be one of the net's top performers in young demographics). What's more, the show lost its stride when creator J.J. Abrams relinquished hands-on control of the series to create ''Alias'' for ABC. ''J.J.'s always been the voice of 'Felicity,''' Levin admits. ''There has been a ratings slip with the loss of his presence.''

''Felicity'' will return to the WB's schedule on March 20 and will wrap May 22 with a two-hour season finale -- when Levin promises Felicity (Keri Russell) will resolve her relationship issues with Noel (Scott Foley) and Ben (Scott Speedman). Come to think of it, a ménage à trois sure would make a jaw-dropping series capper.

They should have kept Jack & Jill around for this year instead of Felicity.

Will Amy Jo Johnson be back for the finale?

On one hand this is sad because it's gotten good again, but they're right - the end of her senior year is a natural ending place. As long as they resolve the ben/noel thing, I'll be fine with it. :)

Good riddance! I hated and still hate the show, though my ex-gf loved it I thought it was crap. :lol: Felicity bites the dust!

What she said.
