Culture: Reno 911 canceled: All short shorts must come to an end

  • Reno 911! was cancelled at 1:30 pm today. Won’t be wearing the shorts again.
  • “Reno 911” star Thomas Lennon • Announcing via tweet that his popular cop-show parody had been canceled. It lasted six seasons and spawned a funny movie with a great joke involving a dead whale. We’ll miss it, but are happy to see Lennon and Robert Ben Garant – talented alums of “The State” with writing credits on the hit “Night at the Museum” movies – get a chance to do something else. Garant admitted to his hometown paper that he would’ve kept doing the character forever if he hadn’t been forced to stop. Keep an eye out, though: They’re working on a new show. • source
