SitcomsOnline Digest: Cancellations at NBC; Nash Bridges and Becker DVDs

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! Now that Halloween is over and everybody is in the holiday mood now (if you don't believe it, check your local radio dial, because there is a good chance you'll find at least one station playing non-stop Christmas music), things are also slowing down as far as news developments, but we're here with all that we have, including a pair of recent cancellations at NBC. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB
  • NBC has started their cancellation rounds this week with Thursday night comedies A to Z and Bad Judge being let go. The network is planning to allow them to finish their 13 episode order in their current time slot, at least as of right now. (Hollywood Reporter)
  • The episode order for Fox's Mulaney, a series that was one of the most talked about for the season, has been cut from 16 to 13, but it isn't cancelled... yet. (Zap2It)
  • It's the first week of November sweeps, and if you don't know what to watch, USA Today can give you a little help. (USA Today)
  • Antenna TV is preparing a Thanksgiving feast for their viewers, with a 27 hour Dennis the Menace marathon. (SitcomsOnline)
