According to TVLine, NBC has given The Playboy Club the boot after airing three episodes. This news comes on the heels of Deadline reporting last week NBC chairman Bob Greenblatt would give the freshman show a little more time to rebound before making a decision to place it on the chopping block. No word on if the peacock network will air any of The Playboy Club's remaining episodes.

Will The Playboy Club go down faster than the Titanic? Don't count the show out just yet. According to Deadline, rumors of the shows demise are just that, rumors. The site is reporting NBC chairman Bob Greenblatt will give all new series a bit more time to get their groove before pulling the plug. Also rumored to be on the chopping block are Free Agents and Prime Suspect. Deadline also claims the new Brian Williams news magazine show will scoop up The Playboy Club's 10 PM timeslot on Mondays if NBC decides to axe The Playboy Club. Williams' show isn't ready for debut as yet giving the freshman drama a bit of a reprieve. 

Tonight is the night of the highly anticipated NBC premiere of The Playboy Club, starring former Y&R and Sunset Beach star Eddie Cibrian, Amber Heard, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, David Krumholtz, Laura Benanti, Leah Renee Cudmore, Jenifer Lewis and former Guiding Light and Days of Our Lives star Wes Ramsey. Still recovering from the Zucker years, NBC is in desperate need of some successful dramas. Do you think this will be one of them?  Share your thoughts on the episode in the comments after it airs.

"Clearly 'The Playboy Club' is not going to be accurate. It was the tackiest place on earth. It was not glamorous at all," Steinem told Reuters in an interview. READ MORE
