Hugh Jackman's wife and business partner Deborra Lee-Furness is "very disappointed" their risky TV series has been cancelled after just two episodes.

Viva Laughlin, in which Jackman played a ruthless casino boss, failed to impress U.S. critics or viewers when it debuted in America last week (18Oct07) - the show was cancelled on Monday (22Oct07) following terrible ratings for its second episode on Sunday night (21Oct07).

Australia's Nine Network also pulled the song-and-dance series after just one episode aired.

Lee-Furness says, "We are obviously very disappointed, but you have to take risks in this business.

"But, if I'm going to fail, I want to fail spectacularly, and it seems like we did."

The show was the first project for Jackman's Australian production company, Seed, which he owns with Lee-Furness.
