Did It Work?

Aside from pissing off the L.C.S. fans who are Canadians (who don’t get Comedy Central on their cable systems), was their any other negative fallout from cancelling the last episode of the reality show? From mediaweek.com:

NBC, which yanked the season (or series) finale of Last Comic Standing 3 at the last minute for two repeat episodes of Father of the Pride, did not benefit by the move. The animated double pop was fifth in the 8 p.m. hour in both the overnights (avg. 4.5/ 7) and adults 18-49 (2.4/ 7).

Fifth?! Nice one!
