That was a short run.
Bill Simmons' weekly HBO talk show "Any Given Wednesday" has been cancelled after only fourth months on Watch The War of the Worldthe air. The final episode will air next week, HBO announced Friday.

"We loved making that show, but unfortunately it never resonated with audiences like we hoped. And that's on me. But I love being a part of HBO's family and look forward to innovating with them on other ambitious programming ideas over these next several years -- both for the network and for digital," Simmons said in a statement.
It's not all over between HBO and the sports commentator. The cable network is reportedly still going to work on future projects with Simmons' media group, according to Variety.
This isn't Simmons first time dealing with a shutdown. He was the editor-in-chief of ESPN-owned Grantland, a blog covering sports and pop culture. ESPN did not renew his contract and closed the site in October 2015. In June, he launched The Ringer, an independent publicationwith a similar focus.
