Just in time for the end of November sweeps, FOX has cancelled struggling drama Vanished, just a day after announcing that Vanished would take a breather for the rest of sweeps. (Make up your mind, guys.)The Gale Harold-led--oops, scratch that--the Eddie Cibrian-led serialized drama had been airing Friday nights at 8 pm and had only four episodes left to air from its original 13 episode order. (Producers had been told in advance that they would not be getting a back nine order and were told to resolve the storyline.)
The few lingering fans that remain of the series can catch the missing episodes on Vanished's MySpace page, where FOX will begin streaming the remaining installments on November 17th. Subsequent episodes will appear each Friday, with three episodes available at any given time. The series finale of Vanished will be released online on December 8th and then, well, vanish forever.
Meanwhile fellow, Vanished's timeslot will be taken over by fellow struggling freshman drama Justice, beginning December 1st, though the days for that series are definitely numbered. FOX neglected to give Justice any additional episode orders, instead bequeathing that privilege to fellow froshers 'Til Death and Standoff. Comedy 'Til Death received a full season order, while hostage negotiator drama Standoff received an additional order of six episodes, bringing its total this season to 19 episodes.

It was so good, and quite possibly the best show I've seen in a really, really, really, long time.
Thanks.
