So what made the network cancel Sean Saves the World? Since its beginning, the comedy was struggling with the ratings with a 1.4 rating among adults and a viewership of around 4.4 million people for its premiere episode in October 2013. Further ahead, the ratings didn’t improve even when the show moved to the time slot of 9:30 p.m. with a series low of 2.6 million viewers.

Hayes, however, still maintains a relationship with the network through his Hazy Mills production Grimm, which has performed pretty well on Fridays and the impromptu Hollywood Game Night returns for a winter run. For record, this is the second comedy cancellation by NBC for their 2013-14 season run. Prior to Sean Saves the World, the network’s comedy Welcome to the Family was also discontinued after a couple of low-ranking episodes. And also, NBC’s decision comes on a day when the network orders the comedy pilot of a gay-themed One Big Happy, produced by Ellen DeGeneres. Well, the network’s entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt has often struggled with the gay-themed shows in the recent past. In the last season too, The New Normal by Ryan Murphy was also discontinued by NBC after only the first season.

So, are you disappointed with the cancellation of Sean Saves the World?

Megan Mullally will be joining her Will & Grace partner in an upcoming episode of his NBC comedy, but this time, they won’t be just buddies…if at all.

When Mullally appears in Sean Saves the World‘s 17th episode , she will be playing Sean’s sister.  There are no further details yet, but with Linda Lavin as their mother, I can’t imagine this episode will be less than hysterical.

The episode will begin shooting in early February.

The role marks Hayes and Mullally’s first on-screen reunion since Will & Grace left the NBC air almost ten years ago.  There were rumors of a Jack and Karen spin-off at the time, but nothing came of them.

What do you think?  Are you excited to see Megan Mullally on Sean Saves the World.  I know I’ve been looking forward to this news since the show’s premiere.

Sean Saves the World was recently picked up for five additional episodes, bringing it’s episode total to 18 for it’s freshman season.  A new episode airs this Thursday at 9 PM on NBC.
