Fox’s patience with Ben and Kate appears to have run out.
TVLine has learned that the network is pulling the acclaimed, ratings-challenged rookie comedy from the schedule, effective immediately.
Beginning next Tuesday, back-to-back episodes of Raising Hope will air from 8-9 pm through February (except on Feb. 9, when Hope will lead into an encore of New Girl at 8:30/7:30c). Hope‘s one-hour season finale will air Thursday, March 28 following American Idol.
On Tuesday, March 3, Season 11 of Hell’s Kitchen will occupy the 8-9 pm perch, leading into New Girl and The Mindy Project.
Although a Fox insider maintains that Ben and Kate will return at a later date, make no mistake: today’s news has cancellation written all over it. And yes, it sucks.
