Love Monkey Spanked

[Nick]

Replaced by 'The Unit'

CBS has scrapped its mid-season hour comedy, Love Monkey, after just a few weeks, putting it on hiatus. The 10 p.m. Tuesday show will be replaced by the next edition of Amazing Race, which will premiere on Feb. 28 with a two-hour edition, and which will then air Tuesdays at 10, beginning March 7. New drama, The Unit (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460690/), will premiere on March 7 at 9 p.m.

Love Monkey lost 1 million viewers from its premiere on Jan. 16 to its second episode the following week, and its 18-49 demo was averaging a 3.3, third in the time period behind NBC's Law & Order: SVU and ABC's Boston Legal. Most recently, a repeat of SVU scored higher ratings and drew a larger audience.
Love Monkey starred Tom Cavanagh as a single, record executive in New York.

I got tired of Tommy C. on Ed. He's not very deep nor funny for that matter. Gus doesn't like him either.

Wonderful, another show I like being replaced by a reality show.

i tried to watch last week's episode but it just did not hold my interest. I am not sure how many storylines they can construct about the record industry---and the references to getting a music video on MTV seemed dated to me.. But at least they tried something different.

And again, a show that I like is trashed.

I think I'm the TV show killer fan.

Does this help any?

Tom C., aka "Ed", just kept on playing the same character on "Monkey". He was wearing thin on Ed before Monkey ever came along..
