《歡樂合唱團》第五季被縮減成20集

Bad news, "Glee" fans ... you'll be getting a little less music and drama this season.

給喜歡《歡樂合唱團》的粉絲們送上一個壞消息...你們愛看的這部美劇的集數(shù)被縮減了。

FOX has cut "Glee" Season 5 down from 22 episodes to 20 episodes, per The Hollywood Reporter. This is the first time that the network has decided to air less of the musical dramedy.

《好萊塢報道》報道，F(xiàn)OX電視臺把《歡樂合唱團》原定的22集縮減為20集，這是FOX電視臺這么多年來做的首個縮減集數(shù)的決定。

The official reason for the two episode cut is because of the production hiatus the cast and crew took after series star Cory Monteith's sudden death. The show's ratings have also been in decline; recent episodes have hovered around a 1.0 rating in adults 18-49.

FOX電視臺官方給出的縮集原因是因為《歡樂合唱團》男演員Cory Monteith的死給這部劇的拍攝進度帶來了影響。而這部劇的收視率也大降，最近幾集的18-49歲人群的平均收視僅僅維持在1.0左右。

FOX has already renewed the series for Season 6 (which will be its final one) so this won't affect the future of the show. It just means there will be two fewer episodes this season. There's also a chance the two episodes could be added to the final season.

FOX已經(jīng)續(xù)訂了《歡樂合唱團》第六季，所以這個決定對這部劇的未來影響還是不大，只是這一季大家將會少看兩集。另外也有機會在最后一季補上這兩集。
