Work It Cancelled After Two Episodes

ABC's latest sitcom has been pulled from the network's schedule.

January 14, 2012

The new comedy Work It has been cancelled after only two episodes. ABC has pulled the short-lived series from its schedule effective immediately, replacing it with repeats of its more popular freshman sitcom Last Man Standing for the foreseeable future.

Work It, which followed two out-of-work men who dressed up like women to find employment, premiered on January 3 with a low 2.0 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic. Things only got worse for its second episode, which dropped 25% down to a 1.5 - prompting the network to yank it from the air.

The Last Man Standing reruns will likely air in the Tuesday 8:30pm time slot until the returning Cougar Town comes back sometime in March. The Courtney Cox comedy has been waiting to be slotted in for its Season 3 premiere, but has yet to nail down a confirmed date.

ABC cancelled WORK IT, I found the show to be original and funny. In it's place we get to see re-runs of last man standing. How stupid can ABC be?

Allen gregory what the hell was that crap some 7 year old hot for 40 year old cafeteria worker, (GROSS) more brain dead crap. and Tera Nova can't wait for that to get canceled stupid pc crap. and Hawaii five o remade updated crap NO body can compare Jack Lord's Steve Magaritt to the new dork oh and there is a girl in this one, most tv remakes don't work. outsourced good riddance.
i love seeing all stupid new shows that the networks and tv viewers think are good or are going to make it get CANNED. soon cougar town, lame stupid. and that stupid show whitney dumb and that new show with chelsee handler gag me.
and soooon i hope "how i met your mother" it's old and boring and lost it's punch.
even though i love two and half men since charlie sean left it's not that good i give it till the summer of 2012 or maybe one more whole season then CANNED. i blame charlie sean for destroying the show he is a selfish alcoholic and destroyed on of the best show on tv.

"work it" just a cheap remake of bosom buddies dumb stupid moronic lame, brain dead crap any body that thought this was real or phunny should have their head examined for HOLES.
at least the network was smart enough to pull it after two episodes. all we need now is to get all the "wife swap shows" off tv and then tv might be good.

what a load of crap Work It was so funny ...and surprise it like other shows didn't get a chance to even get started this is why i have gotten to not wanting to watch new stuff when it premieres......

What a load a BS. Work It was a decent show. It needed at least a half season to get going. Do we really need all those survivor, reality, and Kardashian shows on all the time? The tv exe's trash anything that doesn't bring in top ratings on it's first show. They're throwing away good shows, and keeping crap on the air.

They should have just left Man Up on the air in this time slot. At least it wasn't based on a concept so ridiculous that it made the show unwatchable. Work It was a terrible, terrible show. I really like some of the actors who were in it, and was thrilled to see John Caparulo get some airtime (one of my fave comedians)... but the show was so, so bad.

RIP, Work It. I will pretend I never knew ye.

My wife and I actually liked Work It, although I guess everyone else thought it was a ripoff from Bosom Buddies.
I agree with you Sunshine, give these shows a chance. Outsourced was an absolute riot and NBC cancels it. Instead they keep 30 Rock back on the air which used to be good now it is a terrible show, just saying...........
