Tussle Over!!!! ABC Whacks KAREN_SISCO!!!!!

I am – Hercules!!

Susan lied.

ABC has pulled its plug on last fall’s best new show, “Karen Sisco,” despite ABC entertainment president Susan Lyne’s public promise that the show would be back this spring.

"Rather than give up, we're going to complete production on the remaining episodes and aggressively relaunch the series," the exec said in November.

Ratings-wise, the Carla Gugino vehicle did not perform well opposite NBC powerhouse “Law & Order.” Still, fans had hoped it would fare better in a less brutal slot.

The show was set to resume production next week, but a story in Friday morning’s Variety suggests network types were unhappy with the first of the proposed new scripts.

It’s unclear whether or not the three filmed but unaired “Sisco” installments will ever make it to air.
