Something we here at Best Years Online overlooked in January 2008.
TVGuide.com is usually pretty reliable on what they report and one concerned viewer asked Matt Roush over at TVGuide.com about the decision to cancel The Best Years. Keep in mind this was written in late January 2008 during the Writer’s Strike. (Although since it is a Canadian show I don’t know how a US Writer’s Strike would affect it.)
Here is the article:
Roush on Best Years
Question: I have been searching vigorously for any information on the return of The Best Years on The N. Rumors abound that the show was canceled; claims have been made that one of the show’s stars reported the cancellation on Myspace, but there is no proof that the Myspace report is legitimate. Can you use your know-how to unearth the real fate of this show? I am a huge fan of and have been signing the petitions for its return, but I think we both know how much success that really has. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.— Louis, Hazlet, NJ
Matt Roush: I checked in with someone at The N, who assured me that no decision has yet been made. Like most everything else in the land of TV, The Best Years (a title that hardly applies to 2008 just yet) is in strike limbo.
