That's almost certainly the case with BrainDead, the conspiratorial bugs-in-politics series from The Good Wife creators Robert and Michelle King. Its cancellation, as reported by TVLine, was basically assured not only by dwindling ratings - the viewership dropped from the premiere's 4.5 million to a late-season low of 1.7 million people - but also by the creators taking on the gig as showrunners for the upcoming Good Wife spinoff heading to CBS All Access. Though there was a four-season plan for BrainDead when it was conceived, it's hard to go anywhere without a creative team. Hopefully we get to see this talented cast land new jobs immediately.
