What happened to 6 Degrees?

Did this show get canceled, or go on hiatus? It hasn't been on.

It's on hiatus. ABC claims it will return in January, but networks have lied to me before. It is supposed to get a new time slot when (if) it comes back. I also heard a rumor that the show was being "retooled" somehow to only focus on certain characters.

Will they change the title to something like "4 Degrees"?

Kristin from Eonline.com has been reporting that several actors have been seen auditioning for next-season pilots... Doesn't leave a lot of faith that the show is going to survive...

This along with Smith were 2 of my favorite new shows this season. I don't even see the point in picking up new shows anymore.

Any update on this? The ABC site still says January TBD for the next episode.

ABC might as well pull the plug on this. It's been off the air so long that noone will care when and if it does return.

I care. It was my favorite new show until Studio 60 found its feet.

6 Degrees started picking up after a few episodes, when the characters were given depth. I liked nearly everyone but the limo driver.

With Men In Trees on Thursdays, that puts 6 Degrees without a decent lead in. Possibly one of the Friday night dumpster slots ... if so, put a fork in it.

So we may never see what was in Erika Christensen's box.

ABC has not announced anything for this month for the show. i highly doubt they would put this on at all next month (sweeps), so it's looking like it would be back in March (at the earliest), if ever.

It is certainly not a crime drama. One of the characters has a criminal background, but mostly it deals with relationships.

I am happy this is returning and thought this show got pretty darn good before it went on hiatus.

I don't expect it to come back next year, but I do hope their "retooling" of the show hasn't screwed it up.

I just saw a TV spot for this where they showed the "sexiness" of the show. The spot was incredibly annoying. Leave that sort of crap to Grey's Anatomy please.

thats all ABC knows how to promote & they can't even do that rite. ABC is by far the most annoying network on tv rite now, grey's anatomy, october road and this six degrees (which i thought was a crime drama) is all crap, but people seem to love this shit, probally because they arn't getting any themselves.

Well it was great to have it back on tonight. I even got my wife to finally watch it and she liked it.

Took me a bit to remember where everything left off. I was wondering where the photographers young girlfriend was. I was starting to worry that they kicked her off the show.

Nah, as soon as I saw Shiri Appleby's name in the opening credits, all was good.

It was okay, didn't miss it when it was off the air, and it's something to tide us over until May sweeps starts up in about a month.

WTF? When did this come back? Yeesh, I really liked this show, then deleted it from my PVR as folks here (and elsewhere) said it was dead. Looks like ABC is still way behind on hosting episodes on their website too. Damn.

Well, for those wanting a refresh, the first four episodes are available on ABC's site.

Way to promote a show, ABC. Sigh...the networks will never learn....

Just two weeks into its return to the schedule, ABC has pulled the plug on "Six Degrees." The show posted an invisible 1.1 adults 18-49 rating on Friday as ABC fell to fifth place on the night. "Degrees" is now officially cancelled and will not be back on TV, like it previously did.

well you know what that means, ABC will take the lazy way out and just throw in another grey's anatomy repeat. i never liked this show but i would rather have a new ep. show for people to watched then another fricken grey's repeat.
