Only 6 episodes were made, so it's not even a season. Although full credit to the writers for wrapping the show up without leaving too many questions unanswered in the 6th episode.

Apparently ABC execs liked the show, and wanted to keep it going but it was getting slaughtered ratings wise by the Olympics coverage. The only hope is that one of the fall ABC dramas does horribly and they resurrect The Days.

It's a drama about a family called the Days. It's main attractions was that Courtnee Draper(one of the potentials in Buffy S7) had a minor'ish roll in it and the writing wasn't completely shit.

And yes, this is U.S. ABC. Most people probably didn't hear about it because the show was produced in a slightly different way. Instead of the network paying a license fee to the production company, the production company itself payed for most of the show in exchange for advertising time. This allowed them to take the movie route of having product placements in the actual TV show itself.

However, there were some downsides. It never had a major push advertising wise from the network, and also skipped showing a pilot a few weeks before the actual launch date to help create mindshare.

I'm in the US and I didn't hear about it. I need to watch more TV, clearly.
