Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! The unofficial end of summer is here, as we get into fall, and it's almost time for the new fall season (but not quite yet!). This week, we're hearing about a lot of people who won't be coming back to our small screen this fall. Let's get going!
HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

- Peacock has cancelled Rutherford Falls after two seasons. (Variety)
- It may not be that surprising as his character was sort of inconsequential in the series anyway, but Michael Fishman will not be returning to The Conners. (Variety)
