"Red Band Society" is on the brink of meeting its demise. FOX has opted not to order more episodes from the freshman drama beyond the original 13-episode order. The show is expected to wrap up production on the first season in mid-December.
The show's fall finale is set to air December 3, but it's unclear whether or not the remaining three episodes will air and if it's so, when. Since FOX has not given a verdict on the series' future, there's still a possibility the show will get a second season.
"Red Band Society" starring Octavia Spencer opened to modest numbers, posting 4.1 million total viewers and a 1.3 rating in the adults 18-49 demo. The show's ratings have been stable, though, with its latest episode drawing 2.9 million viewers and 0.9 in the demo.
"Red Band Society" is the latest FOX's freshman whose future looks bleak. The network has canceled "Utopia" and reduced "Mulaney" episode order from 16 to 13. So far, "Gotham" is the only new series on the network which gets a full season order.
