Is The O.C. O-V-E-R? Fox Blasts Cancellation Buzz
Fox found itself unexpectedly thrust into damage-control mode on Monday when an otherwise benign write-up in the
Great Falls Tribune (Montana) suggested that production on
The O.C. had been shut down, effective immediately and forever. "
The O.C. has not been canceled," insists a show rep. "The show is in production on [Episode 11] and will continue production until it completes its season order [of 16 episodes]."
Elswehere at Fox, the network has cut back its order for Season 2 (there was a 1?) of
The Loop, from 13 episodes to 10, partly due to limited shelf space and the fact that at least three other series are in queue to premiere mid- or late season.
