Originally, it was supposed to debut on October 5, 2006, along with Notes from the Underbelly, but ABC made a last-minute change in its schedule by moving Ugly Betty to Thursday, thus replacing both sitcoms whose "buzz" was not especially promising.
Big Day was broadcast on Tuesdays at 9:00/8:00c. The timeslot was to be filled by another new sitcom that had a better "buzz," The Knights of Prosperity, but ABC moved that program to Wednesdays to make Big Day a priority. According to the ratings, Big Day turned out to be a ratings disappointment.[1]
When Big Day ended its first season on January 30, 2007,[2] only 12 of the 13 produced episodes aired leaving the 13th episode, titled The $10,000 Check, unaired.
On May 15, 2007, ABC officially cancelled the show after the network announced their 2007ā2008 fall schedule.[3]
