WWE star Chris Jericho posted a message on his Twitter page to explain why only five episodes of "Downfall" will air on ABC. "Downfall wasn't pulled or cancelled," Jericho wrote. "Due to a faster paced edited show, we simply ran out of contestants after the fifth show and didn't have enough material for a sixth show. We're gonna film more episodes in the fall. Sorry haters."

Powell's POV: Jericho is responding to a previous report from a TV website, which we cited on Dot Net, that claimed ABC did not intend to air the sixth episode. His explanation is logical. I am surprised that they are producing new episodes in the fall. No, not because I'm a hater, but simply because the ratings have been disappointing.
