Abby’s Canceled After One Season

NBC has canceled low-rated sitcom Abby's after one season. The show averages just a 0.42 to-date, and even the NBC tradition of renewing at least one (low-rated) freshman comedy couldn't save it. Neither could the show's EP Mike Schur, one of the network's top names in comedy. Natalie Morales, Neil Flynn, Jessica Chaffin and Nelson Franklin star in the series as the owner of an unlicensed backyard bar and the patrons of the bar, respectively. This was a correct prediction for The TV Ratings Guide.

NBC Orders Abby’s to Series

NBC has given a series order to comedy pilot Abby's.


Abby's is a multi-camera comedy set at a bar. Natalie Morales, of Santa Clarita Diet and The Grinder, leads the series, and the supporting cast includes Neil Flynn from The Middle and Scrubs. Series creator Josh Malmuth previously wrote for Superstore and New Girl, and creator of Parks and Recreation and The Good Place Mike Schur is an executive producer.

The logline for the series, from Deadline: "Abby’s is an unlicensed bar in San Diego where the regulars enthusiastically enforce a unique set of rules that give them a sense of community and allow them to avoid the frustrating behavior found at other establishments." Universal produces the series.
