Pirate run through

From Hollywood Reporter:

LOS ANGELES -- CBS has scuttled Pirate Master, a low-rated reality series from Survivor producer Mark Burnett.

The show, in which 16 contestants searched for buried treasure, has struggled since its May 31 premiere, falling short of time-slot leader Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? on Fox. It marks the second flop for Burnett this summer, with his Fox series On the Lot also suffering in the ratings.

Not really a surprise. But, seriously, replaced by reruns seems a lame move to me. I want NEW content. Not something I saw 7 months ago. NEW CONTENT NETWORKS! HEED ME!
