GO ON, Starring Laura Benanti and Matthew Perry, Cancelled by NBC

GO ON, NBC's comedy starring Broadway regular Laura Benanti, has been officially cancelled, according to The Washington Post.

Matthew Perry starred in the show as Ryan King, a recent widower and sports talk radio host ready to get back to work after the loss of his wife. Ryan's alpha-male boss, Steven (John Cho), has a different plan in store for Ryan, making him attend grief counseling before returning to the air.

A reluctant Ryan finds himself in a support group for "life change" where he meets an oddball cast of characters, including by-the-books group leader, Lauren, played by Tony Award-winner Benanti.

"Go On" was created by Emmy Award-winning writer/executive producer Scott Silveri ("Perfect Couples," "Friends"). Three-time Emmy winner Todd Holland ("Malcolm in the Middle"), Karey Nixon ("Free Agents," "Miss/Guided") and Jon Pollack ("Up All Night," "30 Rock") served as executive producers.
