NBC cancels ‘Southland’NBC has reportedly cancelled Southland ahead of its second season premiere.
The new season of the Ben McKenzie-fronted cop drama was originally due to drop on September 25, but was then pushed back to October 23.
However, production on the show is now being shut down after just six episodes and Dateline NBC will now take its Friday slot, says The Hollywood Reporter.
NBC has not confirmed when the six produced episodes of Southland will air.
Producer John Wells said: “I’m disappointed that NBC no longer has the time periods available to support the kind of critically-acclaimed series that was for so many years, a hallmark of their success.
“We remain extremely proud of Southland and are actively looking for another home for the series.”
Earlier this year, former Prison Break star Amaury Nolasco abruptly departed the project after filming just three episodes.
