Could the fall season already have claimed its first victim? Sure appears that way over at FOX.FOX has announced that it has benched reality series Nashville, effective immediately, and will instead air repeats of new drama K-Ville in its Fridays at 9 pm timeslot for the next two weeks. After that, the broadcaster will fill the slot with Major League Baseball on October 12th and the launch of reality series The Next Great American Band on October 19th.
According to The Futon Critic, FOX did not confirm that the series bad been canceled and would instead "be rescheduled at a later date."
Which, come on, has become shorthand for don't hold your breath. But given the low numbers for viewership which Nashville has engendered in its few outings, I don't think anyone will be missing this botched series.

I thought the basic conceit was a good one, and it should have been a good show. Also - I didn't even know it premiered, which is a bad sign.
By the way - did I miss it? What show won your contest?
