NBC made the inevitable move on Friday by cancelling the Jekyll and Hyde themed medical drama
Do No Harm after a mere two episodes. That was probably two too many however as the show premiered to historic low numbers with a 0.9 demo. Some thought the show might be one and done but NBC gave it one more week where it dropped two tenths in the demo. The show was originally slotted for Sundays at midseason but NBC instead opted to air it on Thursdays at 10pm and then it premiered to very little buzz and laughable ratings. I still wish NBC had picked up Jason Katims' medical drama
County instead of this one.
Do No Harm joins recent flops
Work It, The Paul Reiser Show, Lone Star, and
My Generation as two and done shows. It's possible that
Harm will get burned off in the summer but I think that's unlikely.
NBC has a lot of decisions for next season. Among its dramas,
Law & Order: SVU, Chicago Fire, Grimm, Parenthood, and
Revolution seem like sure bets for renewal. Likely joining
Do No Harm on the cancellation list is
Deception and
Smash.
Hannibal still may premiere before the end of the season.
