Arts, Briefly: HBO Cancels Show
Posted: March 19th, 2008, 2:28am GMT by By BILL CARTER
Days after announcing it would replace its chief series programmer, HBO has canceled a series before broadcasting it. The network said on Tuesday that it would not go ahead with “12 Miles of Bad Road,” a satirical “Dallas”-like series created by Linda Bloodworth Thomason, whose last big hit was “Designing Women,” which ran from 1986 to 1993. “12 Miles,” starring Lily Tomlin as a wealthy Texas matriarch, had shot 6 of a planned 12 episodes before HBO executives decided it was not up to HBO standards. Two recent HBO shows, “John From Cincinnati” and “Lucky Louie,” did not perform well. Several other networks have been approached about picking up “12 Miles of Bad Road,” most recently Lifetime. A Lifetime executive said on Tuesday that the channel was not interested.
