LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- ABC has ordered additional installments of its U.S. crime drama "The Forgotten," but not its supernatural show "Eastwick," sources told The Hollywood Reporter.

The entertainment industry trade newspaper said ABC ordered five more episodes of "The Forgotten," starring Christian Slater.

Although the network plans to run all of the 13 installments of "Eastwick" it had previously ordered, it reportedly isn't expected to pick up any more.

Based on the 1987 movie "The Witches of Eastwick," as well as the John Updike novel of the same name, the series stars Lindsay Price and Rebecca Romijn.
