Boss cancelled....

No third season..

Kelsey Grammer's show 'Boss' canceled

“Boss,” the political drama starring Kelsey Grammer as mayor of Chicago, is coming to an end, Deadline reports:

“After much deliberation, we have made the difficult decision to not proceed with (a third season of) Boss,” said Starz in a statement Tuesday. “We remain proud of this award-winning show, its exceptional cast and writers, and are grateful to Kelsey Grammer, Farhad Safinia and our partners at Lionsgate TV.”

While the show has been canceled, producers are considering a two-hour movie to end the storyline, according to Deadline.

Grammer won a Golden Globe for “Boss” but didn’t get an Emmy. Asked recently about the snub, he said his personal politics may have been the reason. Grammer is one of a few outspoken Republicans in Hollywood.

I can't count how many shows that I liked got canceled!

Sometimes it really makes me angry & sad, especially when it's a new show and they don't give it a chance.

It was a pretty compelling premise--and well-acted (Grammer and his RW ideology, aside, he is a good actor)

No, it's because you're an over-rated one-note actor...now go play sports...a particular kind of sport that you just got divorced over.
