FXX Cancels 'TOTALLY BIASED'

FXX, the newly-minted offshoot of cable network FX, has cancelled TOTALLY BIASED WITH W. KAMAU BELL, according to Deadline. It's final new episode will air tomorrow night.

The series faced a steady ratings decline since moving from FX to FXX, shedding most of its audience in the move. Per the report, the show has been drawing just over 12,000 viewers per show.

Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell, from Bell and Executive Producers Chris Rock, Chuck Sklar and Keri Smith Esguia, stars standup comedian W. Kamau Bell as he dissects politics, pop culture, race, religion, sex and the media from his own unique point of view. The show features Bell's commentary, live guests, sketch comedy and taped segments. A half-hour series, Totally Biased was shot in New York City before a live studio audience, and airs on FXX Monday through Thursday nights.

Previous guests included Don Cheadle, Rachel Maddow, John Oliver, astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Wanda Sykes, David Alan Grier, George Takei and musician/activist Tom Morello.

FXX is the new basic cable entertainment network launching on September 2, 2013. Geared toward a young adult audience, the schedule will feature original series, movies, and acquired series. The channel will be anchored by the acclaimed hit comedies It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The League, Legit, the critically acclaimed latenight strip, Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell, and the new animated series Chozen. At launch, FXX will be carried in more than 72 million homes. FXX and its sister channels FX and FXM comprise FX Networks, a business unit of FOX Networks Group.
