14 DAY TRIAL // One of the series premiered by ABC in recent years to get very warm critical and fan reception is, without a doubt, “Bunheads,” starring Sutton Foster and Kelly Bishop. It’s just been canceled.
After the first, 18-episode season, ABC was forced to reconsider extending its run, the Huffington Post reports. In the end, they sadly opted not to bring it back.
“Bunheads is a wonderful series that we are very proud to have aired. The series had amazing storytelling, the most talented cast and a passionate and loyal fan base,” the network says in a statement.
“Recognizing all of this, we took extra time to try and find ways to bring the series back for another season, but in the end it simply wasn’t possible. We wish the cast and crew the best in their future endeavors,” the statement further says.
“Bunheads” had Amy Sherman-Palladino of “Gilmore Girls” as creator.
