Anchorwoman Axed After One Episode… Sort Of

Now this is a story that is truly worth of a WTF moniker.

In a record-breaking cancellation move, FOX (famous for cancelling shows within a couple episodes) has cancelled the latest comedy-reality series Anchorwoman, featuring a former WWE Diva’s attempts to become a TV news reporter. Some people say the show was so bad it had to be cancelled after the first episode aired. I disagree because when I read the show got cancelled, my first thought was “Wait a minute. The show’s cancelled? I didn’t even know it aired!”

So, this is news that came across some wrestling news site somewhere because coincidentally that’s the only place you could find this sort of hard-hitting information that you apparently never knew you needed… except you really didn’t. This was a show that I’ve heard nothing – and I mean NOTHING about – frequently other sites of non-wrestling media, nor did I ever recall seeing any ads for. Is it the sort of the show that even FOX is embarrassed to allow even a full season run?

The world may never know… save for the few sad folks who somehow caught this on air.

POSTSCRIPT (2023)
Greetings from the future… today! Doing a bit of digging during the process and it turns out that while Anchorwoman was indeed cancelled after its premiere on FOX, it was NOT after one episode. As a matter of fact, the premiere featured the first two episodes aired back-to-back. So in truth, Anchorwoman was axed after two episodes that aired on one night. It was made available for a time on the FOX website – including a number of episodes that never made air – before being taken down and promptly forgotten about.
