Well, this is one heck of a Thanksgiving bummer: ABC has decided not to go forward with its spinoff of The Middle centered on Eden Sher’s Sue Heck, TVLine has learned.
Heck starred as Sue Heck in all nine seasons of The Middle, which ended its ABC run in May.
The scrapped spinoff Sue Sue in the City, which received a pilot order from the Alphabet network in August, was to see Sher reprise her Middle role as adorkable daughter Sue Heck, as she leaves Orson, Indiana to pursue a career in Chicago.
The Middle creators Eileen Heisler and DeAnn Heline penned the pilot script and were set to serve as executive producers.
