Jake in Progress was a comedy on ABC which began in the 2004-2005 season. The main character is Jake (played by John Stamos of Full House), a New York City publicist-to-the-stars who tries to change his womanizing ways as he tries to find the woman of his dreams. Stamos' co-stars in the show are Naomi (Wendie Malick), Jake's boss at the Magnum PR Agency; Adrian (Ian Gomez), Jake's best friend; and Patrick (Rick Hoffman), the performance artist who always appears at the most inopportune times.
Averaging only 5.5 million viewers in its first season, it was surprisingly picked up for a second season for 2005-2006. The season two premiere episode aired on January 9, 2006, immediately following the first episode of Emily's Reasons Why Not. Both did poorly in the ratings; ABC immediately scheduled a rerun of The Bachelor during their timeslots for the following week, reduced the order for new episodes of both series, and put them both on indefinite hiatus. [1] No additional episodes of either series have been aired, and ABC confirmed on May 13 that Jake had been cancelled.
