'Sirens' Cancelled By USA After 2 Seasons EXCLUSIVE:USA Network has opted not to go forward with a third season of paramedic comedy series Sirens,from Fox 21 TV Studios,Denis Leary and Bob Fisher. Sirens was the first original half-hour comedy series to launch under USA's push in the genre following the off-network acquisition of Modern Family.It was soon joined by Playing House and Benched,two of which,Sirens and Benched have now been cancelled.It was a slow build out of the gate in Season 1,but Sirens developed a following from a loyal core audience and even showed ratings growth over it's freshman run,despite losing its Suits lead-in halfway through,earning a second season renewal. USA reaffirmed its commitment to Sirens in October when the network signaled a retreat from original scripted comedy.The quirky comedy,starring Michael Mosley,Kevin Daniels Kevin Bigley and Jessica McNamee,has been well received,with Season 2 getting even higher marks from some critics.Ratings-wise,there was no growth,and I hear the fact that the show could't find a big enough audience beyond its passionate fan base coupled with the fact that it is not owned by USA led to the network's decision not to go with a third season.Playing House,which also has enjoyed critical praise and small but devoted following but its owned by USA,was able to clinch a renewal with a new windowing introduced by the network where new episodes will premiere first on video-on-demand platforms,before airing on the linear USA channel a week later.Season 2 of Playing House debuts in August. In addition to Playing House,on the comedy front USA has six-episode Donny!a semi-scripted comedic series toplined by Donny Deutsch,set to launch in the fourth quarter. deadline.com/2015/04/sirens-cancelled-usa-2-seasons-1201414268/
