Why was FA cancelled?


Just curious. Why was Fat Actress canceled? Was it low ratings or was FA an intentional mini-series?

my god, i only saw 2 episode and thought they were hilarious. but i can see why it didn't reach a wide audience. Too bad.

reply

Yeah, it was a little pre-emptive when the DVD was released in Australia as "The Complete FIRST season", thus implying there would be more to come! I'm now seeing the set in bargain bins and cheap DVD shops everywhere!

Because she stopped being so fat?

reply

If that's why this show stopped, I wish Kristie would put the weight back on so they could do a second season.

This show was deliriously funny. I was devastated that they didn't bring it back after the first season.

I think it was only meant to be on for a season. Because on the last episode, she acomplished her goal. Great show too!!

reply

She joined Jenny Craig in 2005 ... lost a lot of weight.... so this show wouldn't make sense anymore as a result of that.
Right?

I think the ratings went down after the first episode or so.

Funny how the show was called a series. :-/ Maybe it should be re-labeled as a mini-series.

reply

maybe all dvds should be destroyed because i havnet seen anything so boring/annoying in my whole life. veronicas closet come baaaaaack

reply

Because she lost weight and 'Average-Sized Actress' just didn't have the same ring to it

If you have a problem with what I say, learn the meaning of a joke and shut up

May 2009 and Alley is fatter than ever before. She's on Oprah promoting some new weight loss scheme. She's batty as a loon, but she's still funny and I would love to see a new season of FA. FA did not deserve to be cancelled after just one season.

reply

Yea I agree. This show was pretty funny. If she didn't care so much about being so skinny, I think this show could have developed a good following. I definitely thought it was hilarious! But I guess, she would rather chose to be skinny than to be fat and have a successful TV show.

reply

There was a planned second season, but I'm not sure what happened? BRILLIANT BUT CANCELLED.

reply

Yep this show was great! Is it out on DVD? I hated to see it go.

reply

I just started watching it on Netflix. Brilliant show!
Kirstie is fantastic. Fat or not, I would love to see the continuation of this very funny show. :-)
