"Life's a Tripp" cancelled? Could we be so lucky? Update!

"What? We're cancelled?"

According to Christian Post, Bristol's unreality show was just TOO bad for Lifetime to continue punishing their viewers with it:

Bristol Palin's short-lived reality series, "Life's a Tripp!" has been canceled by Lifetime, but lawsuits are still pending against the young star and the network. A local man has again sued Palin and Lifetime for capturing him on film and airing his words without explicit permission.

Okay well right now THIS is the only source I can find that says the show is cancelled. If anybody else finds more please send them our way.

I cannot imagine that it would necessarily surprise too many of us, though to be honest I kind of thought the Grizzled Mama had signed some sort of contract with Lifetime to air ALL of the episodes. Or perhaps the contract was just to make sure they aired the one last night where she scripted that her daughters had to spend the entire episode telling the camera how awesome she is, what a rock star she is, and how grateful they are to have her as their mother, because I'm sure THAT was the one that she cared about the most!

And you can see how ridiculous that sounded for yourself by watching the episode for yourself right here.

(Second half of last night's episode here.)

Update: ABC has a recap:

Since the announcement last week that “Life’s a Tripp” would be moved to 11 p.m. – placing it after a full hour of “Dance Moms” repeats — morale has been low around this recap blog. This new time slot is as cold as the Alaskan wilderness. 

Hard to believe we’re on the fifth episode already, but time flies when you’re having almost no fun at all and the network is blowing through the season so it can have more room in the schedule for that show starring Jennifer Love Hewitt’s cleavage.

Oh yeah, everybody just LOVES this show.

Update 2: False alarm, the show is not cancelled, apparently the editors at Christian Post are not exactly on the ball.  Here is how it has been rewritten now:

Bristol Palin's short-lived reality series, "Life's a Tripp!" has been canceled from its time slot by Lifetime and has been moved to a less prominent showtime, but lawsuits are still pending against the young star and the network.

Well good, now we get to watch the rotted corpse decay right before our eyes. Good times!
