It’s been kind of a slow news day, but hopefully this will brighten your weekend.

Having been yanked due to less than stellar ratings, Zap2It reports today that the remaining six unaired episodes of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip will make a return.  From the article:

The Aaron Sorkin drama, which arrived last fall as the season’s most hyped show and vanished from NBC’s schedule amidst sinking ratings, will move to Thursday nights at 10 p.m. starting on May 24, at least according to the network’s website for the show.

Not-so-coincidentally, that Thursday is the day after the end of the crucial May sweeps period and it comes a week after the upfront presentation at which NBC will reveal to advertisers whether or not “Studio 60″ has a future on the network next season.

I’ve made no secret that I think that Studio 60 was one of the best new shows of the season, but it just never managed to find a foothold.  I’m hoping beyond hope that the NBC upfront will have Studio 60 down for next season, and this will be an effort to gain some more viewers.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t look too promising, though.
