Denise Richards? It’s Complicated
The New York Post apparently watches TV, because it has a story today based on a report from yesterday’s The Insider saying that E! reality series Denise Richards: It’s Complicated, has been canned.
The truth isn’t quite that simple. A representative for E! says that the show has not been canceled, but its future is still unclear.
"No, it hasn’t been canceled," the spokesperson says. “It performs well for us and decisions are still being made regarding a second season”
According to the network, the premiere episode of It’s Complicated was the third most watched premiere in network history, and has averaged over 1 million total viewers for each new episode the rest of the season.
Not great numbers, but respectable for cable.
If the show were canceled, the timing would certainly be strange, considering it is one of the two series produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions for E! (the other being Keeping Up With the Kardashians).
Seacrest just re-upped with Comcast last week, a deal which includes extensive first look rights for new series across the Comcast networks.
Presumably that was part of the contract because executives at E! liked the content he was providing them.

i like the show. we never think that celebrities are just like us and have problems like us. except for ours aren't broadcasted. i think denise is a good person and funny. i just wonder what the people look like that make fun of the way she looks or her weight. i think she looks good. as for her divorce issues and the children, i think people should back off. i went through a similiar divorce and let me tell you it took almost a year for my ex and i to work things out and exchange the children in a civil manner (even though we had ill feelings to each other). luckily ours wasn't played out in the press. that is hurtful to the children. denise, there is hope and try to let things said about u from your ex roll off ur back and be the best mother and let the children have a good life. charlie needs to do the same thing too. it is about the children and their happiness and well=being. lots of luck and again the show is great and so is her dad. i laugh everytime he has to deal with the animals or denise brings home another pig.
