NBC cancels Law And Order: Los Angeles and The Event
Like a contestant on The Biggest Loser, NBC’s early-morning binging must necessarily be followed by an afternoon purging, and so it is that the network has dumped both Law And Order: Los Angeles and The Event, according to Deadline. The ripped-from-the-Hollywood headlines Law And Order: LA—though occasionally good for making fun of Lindsay Lohan and scenes of Skeet Ulrich getting murdered—never really caught on, thanks in no small part to its mid-season hiatus for retooling. And unfortunately the refurbished version with its more pronounced roles for Terrence Howard and Alfred Molina scored even lower numbers than its earlier episodes, so it now joins the L&O mothership that it was hastily created (sans pilot, even) to replace.
