CBS makes 'Pirate Master' walk the plank

Published Tuesday, Jul 24 2007, 10:14 BST | By Neil Wilkes
CBS has pulled the plug on sinking reality show Pirate Master with five episodes left to go.

The show - from Survivor guru Mark Burnett - debuted to disappointing ratings in May and has been haemorrhaging viewers ever since.

In the UK, Pirate Master was ditched from a prime slot on Sky One to a Monday, 6pm slot on sister channel Sky Three.

The remaining unaired episodes will air weekly on CBS.com every Tuesday, beginning today (July 24). 48 Hours Mystery replaces the show on the broadcast network.
