Drop Dead Diva lives! A month and a half after Lifetime cancelled the dramedy series, I’ve learned that the cable network has inked a deal with producer Sony Pictures TV to bring the show back for a fifth season. At the time of the cancellation, Lifetime insiders noted that that they were open to reconsidering the decision if Sony TV came up with a new financial model. After weeks of talks, I hear the two sides found a framework that made continuing Drop Dead Diva feasible for both of them.

ReplyDeleteThat post said it's "close" to being uncancelled. The deal has now been finalized and it is officially uncancelled.
ReplyDeleteNetworks are doing this quite often nowadays.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about quite often.. I can only think of this, Jericho and Unforgettable out of the last 100 cancellations
ReplyDeleteI'm happy for the fans ;-)
ReplyDeletethe killing also came back from the dead
ReplyDeleteCougar town did too, even though it was moved to a different network
ReplyDeleteI loved this news! I hope they get back that other guardian angel! This last guy was a dud!
ReplyDeleteTo be fair Cougar Town was never canceled to begin with, ABC let TBS purchase it but the creator mentioned in an interview they chose to move networks because they'd get more support and a sure renewal.
ReplyDeletelike sabrina the teenage witch said: WOOHOO!!
ReplyDelete'Uncancelled'. What a cool word.
ReplyDeleteDamn i'm so happy too.
ReplyDeleteWell, seems someone actually has a brain!
ReplyDeleteI'm so incredibly happy for this! I was still holding on, and it happened!!! PRAISE!
ReplyDeletebetter renew this for the next 15 seasons cause i will be sticking around!
