After the cancellation Chi McBride joked "The Nine was the first show in TV history named after its audience." He also revealed that had the show gone on, his character would have been turned out to be behind the bank robbery in an attempt to get ahead of quickly rising debt.

User Reviews

Was canceled because of how bad it was shot

It's amazing to me how anyone watching the pilot to The Nine could have thought for a second about ordering this show.

The pilot was a visual mess, directed by a director who does not understand visual storytelling. To wit, shaking the camera at everything is not directing, it's just, well, shaking the camera at everything in sight.

Add to that songs that sounded like they were force-fed on the show by a team of deaf marketing executives, and you have a show that never delivered and never had even a prayer of delivering.

If that's what the creator of Without a Trace has in store, he should go back to his hit show.
