According to sources (being reported on as early as yesterday) the first casualty of the new season has been announced. Kidnapped, the critically acclaimed by lowly viewed series, has apparently been canceled by NBC (NBC has yet to confirm this).
According to sources, the show will wrap after the original 13 episode order. A decision on where and if NBC will air the remaining 10 episodes should be known sometime today.
The series premiered September 20th to a disappointing 7.6M viewers. The second episode dipped further to 6.3M and the third episode, which aired last evening, dropped even further to about 5.2M viewers.
