The CW's 'Online Nation' is the first to fall

11:03 AM PT, Oct 18 2007

“Online Nation” came and went as fast as Leave Britney Alone Guy faded into bellowing obscurity.

A spokesman for the CW confirmed Thursday that the network has canceled the 30-minute YouTube-inspired clip show. Instead, the CW will air encores of its new comedy “Aliens in America” at 7:30 pm Sundays, beginning with the pilot episode Oct. 21.

Since Fox alleges that "Nashville" is coming back, “Online Nation” is the first official casualty of the new season.
