cw cancels aliens in america

Not sure who's really going to care about this news... but it's official: CW has canceled the sitcom Aliens in America. The comedy, about a Pakistani Muslim exchange student adjusting to life and high school in a Wisconsin town, got rave reviews when it debuted last fall, but never really caught on with viewers. Thus, the network is giving the show the boot: CW Axes Aliens in America. While I was always thought it was a funny idea, I never got around to checking it out. It seems a lot of people never did either.

No worries for star Adhir Kalyan, who played Raja. A couple of weeks ago it was announced that he's landed a recurring role on FX's Nip/Tuck. He'll play 16-year-old Dr. Raj, "a Doogie Howser-like character who studied plastic surgery": Aliens in America's Raja joins Nip/Tuck. You'll see him in the next new episode of the series set to air sometime this fall.
