LOS ANGELES — Mischa Barton's return to the small screen was a short one.
The CW has canceled "The Beautiful Life: TBL" after just two episodes, Variety reports.
Production on the show was halted on Friday after the series drew just 1.1 million viewers in its second episode.
The network is expected to air reruns of "Melrose Place" in "TBL's" Wednesday night timeslot for the time being.
In an ironic twist, Barton had been rumored for months as a potential castmember on "Melrose" prior to "TBL" coming about. It's likely the former "O.C." star's name will once again be mentioned as a potential resident at "Melrose."
