NBC
has canceled “The Playboy Club” after only three episodes. “The Playboy
Club” premiered to low ratings and then dropped for each of its three
subsequent telecasts, with Monday night attracting only 3.4 million
viewers. It’s the first cancellation of the new fall TV season. Despite
having relatively tame content, the show wasn’t helped by the
conservative group Parents Television Council, who vehemently protested
the show. The PTC released a statement saying they were pleased with the
cancellation. NBC will fill the Monday night slot with repeats of new
police drama, “Prime Suspect,” until Brian Williams’ new primetime
newsmagazine, “Rock Center,” takes over on Halloween night.
