Two shows are being given the boot this season as the Media Rights capital has paused production for two under-performing CW series, Easy Money and Valentine. These two shows will stop production for four to six weeks, Mrc announced on Monday. They added that the hiatus is in fact pre-planned and that they are giving the show’s writers ample time to work and catch up on the shows’ writing schedules.
Mrc’s spokesperson said that the company will push through with producing the 13 episodes of the Valentine and Easy Money orders. More importantly, the break will give Mrc the chance to study the performance of both shows, which have been very week in its initial run.
On Sunday, Valentine averaged only a million viewers and 0.4 rating/1 share among adults 28-49 while the previously well-received Easy Money garnered only 750,000 viewers and 0.3/1 in the 18-49 demographic, making the ratings drop by 25 percent from the premiere.

Bob Saget and British actress Jaime Murray have signed on as leads in two Mrc series for the CW.
Saget will star in Kevin Abbott's half-hour comedy "Surviving Suburbia," while Murray will play the title character in Kevin Murphy's "Valentine."
CW is expected to announce the castings at its TCA presentation Saturday.
"Suburbia" centers on Keith Stever (Saget), a well-meaning misanthropic family man in suburbia who is trying his best to be left alone.
Veteran comedian Saget, who narrates CBS' "How I Met Your Mother," is repped by UTA and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.
"Valentine," revolves around Greek gods living among us and centers on Aphrodite (Murray) who is running a matchmaking business with son Eros (Kristoffer Polaha).
Murray will play Grace Valentine, a reformed party girl, formerly known as Aphrodite, the goddess of love.
The actress, who most recently recurred on "Dexter," is repped by Gersh and Luber Roklin.
