What ever happened to the tv show The Riches?

We loved the show and kept waiting and waiting for it to come back, checked their website - nothing. Forgot about it til just now. Does anyone know why it didn't come back?

    The ratings were one reason and the other was that since the writers went on a long strike, only 7 episodes were made out of the 13 that were ordered. Then since the writers were striking, the show just kind of died out since no new episodes were made.

    Hope this helps!

    A second season of 13 episodes was announced on May 8, 2007 by FX for broadcast in the first half of 2008. It premiered on March 18, 2008. Due to a long writer's strike, only 7 episodes were produced.
