It looks like NBC is not renewing WDYTYA next year.   :(   I hope the impact on Ancestry will encourage them to find another network in the US.

Some episodes were better than others, but I enjoyed them all.

I just heard that too.  :(

Disappointing, as it was good to have the variety of UK and US stories.

Perhaps the BBC would show the Australian series instead, I've found them somewhat more interesting than most of the US ... just had to purchase them on DVD from Australia. ::)
