I'd like to say I'm surprised by this, but I'm not. ABC has canceled Men in Trees.

It's been shuttled about from day to day, time slot to time slot, in and out of the line up so that it became a gypsy.

Men in Trees: Pilot (series premiere)
(S01E01) First of all, get Northern Exposure out of your head right now. This is not the same show. In fact, it's not really like anything else that's currently on television and that alone makes Men in Trees refreshing. The drama is low-key, the comedy is sweet and sometimes cute, and the characters seem to have depth. In fact, the characters are the best part of this show. We barely meet most of them in the pilot but we get the idea that they're not just small town simpletons, rather they're educated men and women with complicated pasts that no doubt include heartache and sacrifice. And Anne Heche is delightful, with the perfect balance of independence and fumbling fish out of water.
