And the first cancellation is....
From EW:
And the award for first cancellation of the new fall season goes to...Fox's Do Not Disturb!
Sources confirm to me exclusively that the critically savaged sitcom, starring a slumming Jerry O'Connell and Niecy Nash, has been axed after three low-rated episodes. The show's Wednesday time slot will be filled with repeats of 'Til Death, which upgrades the network's 9 to 10 p.m. comedy block from excruciatingly painful to unbearably painful. (And yes, that is an upgrade, albeit a very slight one.)
A Fox insider insists no official decision has been made re: Do Not Disturb's fate.
News comes just days after the show's producers publicly apologized for making such a crappy show.
All's forgiven!

Wow, to get cancelled before half the fall shows have even premiered. The promos looked awful, so no real surprise.
I think the other new CBS sitcom with Jay Mohr looks more like an early cancellation candidate. At least Worst Week has a cushy timeslot.

I watched the eps but I'm not shocked. Both Do not Disturb and the hopefully soon to be canceled 'Til Death, are shows that seem to not take advantage of the talented folks on the show.
The writing was lame and childish.

Never heard of it. I'm sure I wouldn't have watched anyway.
Nice of the producers to apologize for it before it was cancelled. That's not a slap in the face to the cast & crew.
