USA Cancels Freshman Comedy ‘Benched’

Bad news for fans of USA’s new comedy Benched: THR reports that the network has canceled the Damon Jones and Michaela Watkins-created series after its first season due to struggling ratings and USA’s shifting focus toward more drama shows. Benched debuted its 12-episode season in October and wrapped up in December. ABC Studios producers are reportedly looking for a “new home†for it, so there’s a small chance we might see more Benched in the future.
