Extended Family Cancelled At NBC

NBC has opted not to extend its time with Extended Family, cancelling the Jon Cryer comedy after a single season.

Extended Family's 13-episode freshman run averaged 3.2 million total viewers and a 0.4 demo rating (with Live+7 playback). Out of the three sitcoms that NBC has aired this TV season, it distantly trails the recently renewed Night Court in both measures but handily beats Lopez vs. Lopez (which was renewed for Season 3 on Tuesday).

Created by Mike O'Malley, the multi-camera sitcom centered on former marrieds Jim (Cryer) and Julia (Timeless' Abigail Spencer), who, after an amicable divorce, "decide to continue to raise their kids at the family home while taking turns on who gets to stay with them," according to the official logline. "Navigating the waters of divorce and child-sharing gets more complicated for Jim when the owner of his favorite sports team (Scrubs' Donald Faison) enters the picture and wins Julia's heart."

Rounding out the ensemble were newcomer Sofia Capanna as Grace, Finn Sweeney (Impeachment: American Crime Story) as Jimmy Jr., and recurring guest star Lenny Clarke (Rescue Me) as Jim's father Bobby.

Its Season 1 finale — which will now have to serve as a series finale — aired March 26.

Elsewhere at NBC, the Reba McEntire-led comedy Happy's Place has secured a series order.
