LMAD's casting team just announced that they are taping 5 primetime shows this week! So they may be rushing production due to Loteria Loca's cancellation.
With the strikes I don't know why they can't just air the show instead of reruns, possibly move it to a different night and finish their run. They don't have to renew it for another season but they could just finish the the season with possibly Let's Make a Deal and the return of Lingo.
Also a surprising that they renewed Lingo for season 2 when they pulled the rest of season 1 off due to low ratings also.
