WITHOUT A PRAYER

Aidan Quinn in The Book of Daniel
Tuesday brought news of not one, not two, but a holy
trinity of shelved series. Despite a riveting cameo by TV Guide's own former Party Boy, Daniel R. Coleridge, TNT has canceled
Wanted, while ABC has brought
Jake in Progress to a halt. (Think
John Stamos has called
ER yet to let them know he's available? Two words for you:
Ask Ausiello.) Lastly, NBC has slammed shut
The Book of Daniel, "due to many reasons," series creator
Jack Kenny reports in a message to fans at NBC.com. Now, before the American Family Association gets all full of itself, their efforts had little to do with
Daniel's demise, a reliable source tells us; rather, the ratings were just sinfully bad.
