NBC Cuts The Cape to 10 Episodes

NBC has cut its order of its struggling crime drama The Cape from 13 episodes to 10, clearly signalling the end of the series. The last episode is now scheduled to air on Monday, February 28th.

David Lyons stars as Vince Faraday, an honest cop on a corrupt police force, who becomes "The Cape" -- his son's favorite comic book superhero -- and takes the law into his own hands when he finds himself framed for a series of murders and presumed dead.

The conspiracy thriller The Event will return from its long hiatus -- the most recent first-run episode aired last November -- the following week in its timeslot.
