NBC orders smaller serving of The Singles Table

It looks like NBC doesn't have much room for the mid-season comedy, The Singles Table. The network originally ordered 13 episodes of the show, but this week it cut that request down to only six episodes. The Singles Table is about a group of people who always end up at the 'singles table' together at their friends' weddings. John Cho (Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle) and Jarrad Paul (Monk) star in the series-- Alicia Silverstone was a late addition to the cast. Already, five episodes have been filmed.

What does this say about The Singles Table? Eh. It pretty much says it's not the best show ever. We all know that NBC is trying to cut costs at every corner, so the network is likely waiting to see whether The Singles Table is a hit before committing to 13 episodes.
