The network has canceled two veteran dramas, a freshman comedy and midseason drama: Veteran procedural "Cold Case" and "Numbers" will not be renewed. Jerry Bruckheimer's "Miami Medical" is likewise canceled, as is "Accidentally on Purpose," which mainly aired in the network's Monday night comedy block. The most surprising decision here is "Cold Case." CBS was on the fence on this seven-year-old drama for months. On Sunday nights, "Case" ratings were admirably stable, if fairly modest. "Miami" nosedived on Fridays at 10 p.m., then showed some signs of improvement in recent weeks once it was offered a lead-in from original episodes of "Medium." Last Friday, the momentum seemed to stall, with the drama backsliding once again to a 1.2 rating. "Accidentally" may end up with the highest average rating among any canceled show this season. As part of CBS' comedy block, the show posted a number that would have been perfectly acceptable in most time periods. But once CBS sample the show on less protected Wednesday nights, its ratings fell sharply, showing the network its Monday audience was mainly built on momentum. Ever since "Numbers" saw its episode count reduced, insiders have expected the show to get cancelled. -- Jason Carpio [email protected] Not sent from an iPhone -- TV or Not TV ....
