Online Nation Television Program

This is "Online Nation" co-host Stevie Ryan outside her comfort zone: When the line on the teleprompter reads "revolting beverage," she delivers it by sticking her fingers in her mouth and gagging. A viral video of a cat she introduces triggers her to meow for effect, then to bark when the director requests that she go with it sans meow.

Three episodes and out: "Online Nation," a YouTube-inspired clip show that premiered Sept. 30, has been canceled, a spokesman for the CW confirmed Thursday. Instead, the CW will air encores of its new comedy, "Aliens in America," at 7:30 p.m. Sundays. Since Fox still says that the previously shelved "Nashville" will be back later in the season, "Online Nation" is the first official casualty of the 2007-08 TV season. -- Maria Elena Fernandez
