Last fall, CBS made a big push on The Crazy Ones, featuring the television return of Robin Williams as an ad executive.  Sarah Michelle Gellar was also on board as Williams’ daughter and business partner.  After debuting as the fall’s highest rated premiere, the ratings quickly dropped as the show tried to find its footing.  Which, in my opinion, it eventually did.  While it wasn’t the best show, I certainly found it enjoyable.

CBS, however, felt otherwise.  The first chink in the armor came in February, when the show lost its timeslot to the over-the-hill Two and a Half Men.  Finally, in a surprising move, CBS pulled the plug in May.  Between Williams and Gellar, the network was expecting a break out hit.  What they got instead was a steady, if unspectacular, performer, which will not be given the chance to build upon its improving first season.
