New Amsterdam Officially Canceled By FOX On May 10th, 2008

I have received word from David Manson, show runner and executive producer, this morning that confirms it. FOX has officially canceled the series as of yesterday. To quote from his email:

"Yes. Unfortunately, I received word yesterday that Fox has officially cancelled NA. I know this will be a disappointment to the many fans who campaigned so ardently for its renewal. I can only express my gratitude for their passion and hope that perhaps some other network will let John Amsterdam live.

And my thanks to you as well.

Best,

David"

I normally wouldn't quote an entire email outright but I feel this is a message for all of us, every loyal fan.

Also, while FOX has not picked up the series, there remains the possibility that Regency Television will shop the show to other networks and find it a new home. I'll update the site as new information becomes available.

Commiserate with other fans in our forum.
