'The Michael J. Fox Show' is canceled

The Michael J. Fox Show," certainly among the more anticipated series of the 2013-14 season, has been canceled by NBC, according to reports in Variety and the Hollywood Reporter. The show -- starring a beloved TV figure who should endure no significant harm to his reputation despite this failure -- struggled almost from the opening bell. In recent weeks, the sitcom about a New York TV anchor with Parkinson's disease (Fox), mustered barely 2 million viewers for a recent episode.
