People reported that "Bad Judge" received a negative review from Chapter president, Deborah Baker. Baker reportedly sent a letter to Steve Burke, NBC's CEO. She stated in the letter that the series was a:
"'step in the wrong direction, because it 'depicts a female judge as unethical, lazy, crude, hyper-sexualized, and unfit to hold such an esteemed position of power'".
ABC reportedly did the same thing before NBC did. ABC reportedly dropped "Manhattan Love Story" on Tuesday due to poor numbers of viewership, too. 'Manhattan' reportedly obtained 2.6 million viewers only.
'Manhattan' depicted the love story of a new couple. The actors who played the leading roles were Analeigh Tipton, from "Crazy, Stupid, Love" fame, and "Aquamarine" star, Jake McDorman.
