TORONTO – CTV has scrapped the sitcoms “Hiccups” and “Dan for Mayor,” as well as the reality competition “So You Think You Can Dance Canada.”

A spokesman confirmed Tuesday that the network has not ordered new seasons of the three shows.

“Hiccups” was the brainchild of “Corner Gas” creator Brent Butt and starred his wife, Nancy Robertson, as a wacky children’s author.

Another “Corner Gas” alum, Fred Ewanuick, was behind “Dan for Mayor,” about a slacker who winds up in office.

“Dance Canada” wrapped its fourth season earlier this week, crowning contemporary dancer Jordan Clark the new champ.

A spokesman said the latest season was the least-watched yet, with ratings down 31 per cent from the show’s inaugural year.
