According to Variety, The WB has shelved their primetime animated series, Baby Blues, which aired last summer. The series reportedbly will cost The WB $15 million.
From Variety.com:
"The WB is no longer feeling the blues -- "Baby Blues," that is.
Frog has decided to shelve the entire 13-episode second season of the animated laffer as well as six segs held over from the skein's first season -- even though all 19 episodes of the series have been produced and paid for, at a cost of more than $15 million.
WB execs moved to kill "Baby" following a successful 2001-02 comedy development slate, which resulted in five new live-action, adult-oriented half-hours being added to the net's fall lineup. With no other toon comedies in the Frog hopper -- and no other compatible shows in the offing -- "Baby" quickly became an orphan."
