SitcomsOnline Digest: Santa Clarita Diet and Wrecked Both Cancelled; Remembering Dallas Actor Ken Kercheval

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! Once again, we're in that mid-spring "too early for the new season, too late for the current season" mode where there isn't much news, but we are starting to hear of some cancellations, a reunion of the cast of a popular teen sitcom from the 90s, and more. Let's get going!
