Aussie TV Talent Show Canceled

Everybody Dance Now, an Australian free-to-air talent show featuring Kelly Rowland and Jason Derulo as on-air “coaches,” was axed three episodes in due to dismal ratings.

Not helped by a complex format, the show drew only 598,000 viewers nationally for its first episode.

The second shrunk to 350,000 – a quarter what similar talent quests including “Australian Idol” and “X-Factor” draw.
