The Bionic Woman has NOT Been Cancelled

At least not yet, according to NBC, who told TVGuide that the show has not been cancelled, but has merely gone on hiatus due to not having any scripts to shoot because of the ongoing Writer’s Strike. Of course, NBC doesn’t say what will happen once the show finishes up its initial 13-episode order, including an expected 2-episode relaunch of the show in January 2008.

Usually, if a network decides to keep a show, they’ll order the “back end”, i.e. the remainder of the season’s worth of episodes. In this case, there has been no such orders for Bionic Woman.

Here’s what NBC told TVGuide:

Bionic Woman has not been canceled. Production was shut down due to the WGA strike. In addition, we have not completed the initial 13-episode order, which will be the first order of business when the strike ends.

Definitely no commitments there. It could go either way for the bionic woman, it appears…
