‘Do Not Disturb’ Fall’s First Cancellation
September 26, 2008 by Chandra
Who didn’t see this coming, like, during the very first episode?
Entertainment Weekly reported the rumor first on Thursday: after just three little-watched episodes, Do Not Disturb will allegedly air no more due to Fox’s decision to cancel the series. Of course, since the unofficial confirmation came from some of those always unidentified “inside sources,” the network hasn’t had the chance to play catch up with a formal announcement yet. I reckon it won’t be long now.
This entirely expected outcome — it was only a matter of when, not if — follows right on the heels of a September …read more
Do Not Disturb: 1.02 ‘Birdcage’ Review
September 19, 2008 by Chandra
Original Air Date: September 17, 2008
It’s too bad. I really, really want to like Do Not Disturb because I really, really like Reno 911! player Niecy Nash. Unfortunately, however, the show isn’t doing anything so far to help me out in that department. If you thought the series premiere was a sign of bad things to come, it’s unlikely the show’s second episode will change that foreboding feeling.
Despite a few funny moments, the humor is nowhere near as plentiful and consistent as it should be on a sitcom. Plus, the overemphasis placed on the character Larry’s …read more
Do Not Disturb: 1.02 ‘Birdcage’ Photos
September 17, 2008 by Chandra
This is the one with “big” guest star Audrina Patridge of MTV’s fake yet popular reality series The Hills.
The plot doesn’t sound like it diverges much from last week’s Do Not Disturb series premiere, either, which primarily focused on adults behaving immaturely when it comes to sex-related stuff.
This time around, general manager Neal hangs a life-sized birdcage in the hotel’s bar to showcase female employees he considers attractive, which understandably and predictably gets the panties of Human Resources boss Rhonda in all kinds of twists.

Do Not Disturb: 1.01 ‘Work Sex’ Photos
September 9, 2008 by Chandra
Get a first look at “Work Sex,” the premiere episode of Fox’s new sitcom Do Not Disturb in the stills after the jump.
The series begins tomorrow night at 9:30pm EST, immediately after the third-season premiere of ‘Til Death, although the first episode isn’t the pilot, which was postponed until later. Perhaps network executives think having “sex” in the title and lots of naughty dialogue will make viewers come running. Maybe, maybe not…

Take a Closer Look at ‘Do Not Disturb’
Fox still isn’t sure whether its new Niecy Nash/Jerry O’Connell sitcom will be permanently called Do Not Disturb — it was previously titled The Inn, as well — but that hasn’t stopped executives from putting together a pilot and photos of the cast in character.
Take a look at the full crew in the above still, a few more snaps after the jump, and the preview clips already posted. Does this look like a winning combination to you?
