ABC Cancels “American Crime”

Despite winning a bunch of Emmys and Golden Globes and telling stories that are relevant and seen nowhere else on broadcast television, ABC has cancelled John Ridley’s “American Crime”.

But fear not, 18 – 49-year-olds, because the network that apparently has a firm grasp on the smarts – or attention span? – of the average American TV watcher, they’re bringing back “American Idol”.

I think the word “irony” fits in here somewhere.

Dear ABC: I’ll give you three guesses where I won’t be on whatever nights “American Idol” airs and the first two don’t count!
