As of last week it was to be canned. However, it seems that there has been a change of heart at NBC for the time being. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20020328/tv_nm/ratings_34

Did the actually come right out and say it was "cancelled"? I had heard they were shelving the remaining episodes (now 2 less than before), but I didn't notice that they said it was officially cancelled.

No, they didn't say it was canceled, only that they were taking it on hiatus. Their official line was part of the reason for doing that would mean there will be enough shows to run a full season when the new one starts.
I hope it stays on the air - I am *really* likin' it!

I like it too, but that's not a real popular opinion. :-)

Speaking of Slippery Pete. I just saw on Swedish TV one mr Peter Stormare promoting his new cd, I think it's his first one. He's probably one of the best known Swedish actors that actually made it in Hollywood. Addition to playing Slippery Pete in Seinfeld he's also starred in number of movies like Fargo, Jurassic Park: The Lost World, Dancer In The Dark to name a few.
I love his roles. His always this sort of mentally retarted person, who ends up in not so nice situations towards the end of the movie (like dead). Seeing his face in a motion picture immediately cracks me up, funny guy!
Anyway, don't you love actors who decide they want to sing?

This week "Watching Ellie" isn't on Tuesday. I hope it is just a week's delay until the next show. I like Julia-Louis Dreyfus and would hate to see her show cancelled so soon. Rusty

Yes it is, 8:30 EST. TV Guide doesn't list it, but NBC's site does.
They're airing a more interesting show called "Watching Paintdry".

The show is da bawmb. Julia is TERRIFIC in this role!
I just watched this week episode. The one where a dog gets a miniature ship glued to his ass. I don't know if the others episode were like this one cos this one really stinked.
In 22min, I didn't laugh a single time.

watching ellie wasnt on this week on tuesday. how did you see it?
This episode definitely aired, at least in my area. Prime time was:
- Will & Grace: Dyeing Is Easy, Comedy Is Hard (repeat)
- Watching Ellie: Weekend (new)
- Frasier: Bully for Martin (repeat)
- Scrubs: My Way or the Highway (new)
- Dateline NBC (assume it was new; one hour)
Watching Ellie: Weekend 07:30PM-08:00PM CDT Tuesday Apr 16 Ellie and Ben are finally able to spend an entire weekend alone, but while Ben is content to lie around and watch television, Ellie is privately disappointed that their time together isn�t more "magical." There�s plenty of excitement, though, when Edgar returns early to pick up his beloved dog from their care, and Ellie discovers that the pooch has accidentally glued himself to the model ship Ingvar is building.
