Fuhgeddaboudit: CBS Cancels Made in Jersey

Low-rated Friday night legal drama first to get the ax

CBS announced today that it has pulled the plug on its Friday night legal drama Made In Jersey, making it the first casualty of the fall TV season.

After premiering Sept. 28 to just 7.82 million viewers and a 1.1 rating in the adults 18-49 demo, Made in Jersey dropped to even less sustainable numbers the following week. Per Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, Jersey’s second episode drew 6.78 million viewers and a 0.8 in the demo.

Even CBS’s guaranteed demo wasn’t enough to keep Jersey a viable option in the 9 p.m.
