In what is being considered a remarkable victory for activists of Free Television, Ashton Kutcher's fashion model drama series The Beautiful Life: TBL was set free from The CW on Friday after only two episodes.
The show, which featured the ups and downs of fashion models, was said to have been close to gaining its freedom since it was first announced as a part of the network's fall lineup. The show had its own series of difficulties, with its star Mischa Barton falling ill, and an unsurprising lack of public interest.
Activists continue to rejoice in this small, albeit important victory, and are hopeful that other fall shows will join TBL in enjoying its sweet, sweet, freedom. Shows like ABC's Hank, The CW's Melrose Place and Fox's Brothers are said to be close to being set free as well.
The Beautiful Life: TBL will be released into a vast meadow of wild flowers and butterflies this coming Wednesday, according to network representatives.
Meanwhile, a candlelight vigil will be held tonight at the gate of Universal Studios, in honor of those shows still being held captive.
We'll bring you more as it develops.
