And another one bites the dust.
It appears NBC has pulled the plug on “Next Caller.”
According to Deadline, the midseason comedy which stars Dane Cook has been cancelled. After filming four episodes, NBC executives decided that “creatively the series was not going in the direction they had hoped for” and halted production on the show.
