The Fate of “Crusoe”

Lost in all of this talk in recent weeks about the cancellation of “Lipstick Jungle,” “My Own Worst Enemy,” “Pushing Daisies,” “Eli Stone” and “Dirty Sexy Money” has been the fate of NBC’s “Crusoe.”

In fact, I was actually starting to think that NBC was crazy enough to let it survive (You guys know I liked the pilot, but letting it go on and cancelling the mega-hyped “Enemy”? Come on!).
But it turns out NBC is not that crazy. “Crusoe” has been cancelled. I guess it’s just such an expected move that no one bothered to report it.

“Crusoe” is scheduled to air the remainder of its 13 episodes on Saturdays at 8 p.m. beginning December 6th. “Jungle” will move into the “Crusoe” timeslot Fridays at 9 p.m. and air its final four episodes December 5th, December 12th, January 2nd and January 9th (according to USAToday.com).

“Dateline NBC” will return to NBC’s schedule Friday, December 5th at 10 p.m…
