Kidnapped

NBC announced the sort-of cancellation of its Wednesday night drama "Kidnapped," which stars Jeremy Sisto. NBC gambled by putting the show in the time slot held for a long time by "Law & Order," and it failed miserably.

"Kidnapped" will be moved to the television purgatory of Saturday nights, starting Oct. 21. Its producers have been told to wrap up the serialized drama's story lines by the end of the show's 13-episode order, NBC said.

Vanished has been moved to Fridays, interesting to see which show gets cancelled first. Shows get moved to Fridays all the time (and usually die), can't remember the last time a show moved to Saturday.

But will it suffer from being rushed?

Most likely.

But, I mean.....I'd imagine the writers would have to have the idea an exit early plan.

The official word is that Kidnapped has been cancelled. This and CBS' Smith are the first to go.

I think the problem was that they stalled on just one kidnapping story. The concept was entertaining but the story was a one, or two episode story at the most.

Smith got cancelled to? Ah, damn.
