LOS ANGELES, Sept. 21 (UPI) -- The syndicated TV news magazine "A Current Affair" has been canceled only six months after its resurrection.

The show will be replaced on Fox-owned stations in November with a half-hour show featuring Fox News Channel's Geraldo Rivera, called "Geraldo at Large," TV Week reported Wednesday.

"A Current Affair" staffers learned of the show's demise late Wednesday afternoon, TV Week said.

The new version of the show -- with Tim Green in the chair that launched the career of Maury Povich in the mid-1980s -- failed to catch on with viewers.

Topics: Geraldo Rivera, Maury Povich
