ABC has decided not to pick up its three slumping sophomore series, “Pushing Daisies,” “Dirty Sexy Money” and “Eli Stone” beyond their initial 13-episode commitments, according to a report in Thursday’s The Hollywood Reporter.
Although none of the shows have received an official “cancellation” from the network, the writing is basically on the wall. “Daisies” averaged 6.4 million viewers this season, “Money” had 6.6 million, and “Stone” had 7.9 million.
“Daisies” and “Money” suffered from short freshman outings due to last year’s writer’s strike.

In honor of the news that ABC is letting go of Dr. Erica Hahn on “Grey’s Anatomy,” ending her budding romance with Dr. Callie Torres – I have come up with a list of the 15 most awkward couples on TV right now.
Dr. Erica Hahn and Dr. Calle Torres (“Grey’s Anatomy”) - Unfortunately, Erica and Callie’s friendship-turned-romance was a disaster from the start.
