According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Fox network has shelved the comedy series I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER due to weak ratings. The network has announced that it will air an expanded version of 'American Idol' in its place on Wednesdays during the month of April. The last new original episode of the sitcom will be broadcast on April 3rd. 

I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER was a family comedy starring Jaime Pressly and Katie Finneran as single moms, best friends - and former nerds - who fear their privileged and overly indulged daughters are turning out just like the mean girls who picked on them in high school. The series debuted last November on Fox.  

Broadway vet Katie Finneran's theater credits include a pin-up girl in Neil Simon's Proposals, Sally Bowles in the Tony Award-winning revival of Cabaret, and call girl Cora in The Iceman Cometh opposite Kevin Spacey. She also has appeared in My Favorite Year with Tim Curry and John Guare's Bosoms and Neglect and Smell of the Kill with Kristen Johnson. She won a Best Featured Actress Tony Award in 2002 for her role in the revival of Noises Off as well as a Drama Desk award also for best featured actress in that play. Most recently, Finneran won the 2010 Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical for Promises, Promises.
