Help - Can't remember name of show

[Patti61]

There was a show on a couple of years ago that was centered around a diner/restaurant.. There was a character with a Jamaican accent and he had long dread locks.. The chef may have been a former boxer or ex-con I can't remember, but fancied the ladies, The storyline alwasy featured this group who hung out at this restaurant.

If "Union Square" was the 8th most populat show of the 1997-98 season, why was it cancelled?

[Bob's TV Treasures]

Critics absolutely lambasted that show.
However, I kind of liked it, too. I thought
it had potential.

[JulieSomoski]

Why was it cancelled? I'm sure it was only popular because it wsa a part of NBC's must-see TV, but still.

[treky]

because it got low ratings and, unfortunetaly, that's about all that the networks really care about; sometimes.

It was one of the many shows that NBC wasted in the 8:30 and 9:30 Thursday timeslot in the 1990's which is why NBC's sitcom slate now absolutely sucks.
