It appears as though after finishing up its 13 episodes, Maria Bello and the cast will be saying goodbye to Prime Suspect. Although NBC has stood behind the police drama, despite low ratings, it appears their goodwill only goes so far. The show was left off the network’s mid-season lineup and probably won’t be picked up for any further episodes.
Prime Suspect has never caught on with viewers, garnering the lowest numbers of any show in its 10pm Thursday time slot. Beginning in mid-January, the new drama The Firm will be seen in Prime Suspect‘s place.
