For fan of The Mysteries of Laura fan who ‘ship Laura and her ex-husband, Jake: The two were eventually going to get back together. Bad news for those same fans: That reconciliation will never happen, because the NBC drama was cancelled Saturday

Previously on The Mysteries of Laura, The Mystery of the Convict Mentor brings back their former Captain turned killer. He heard a lead from prison from a cold case he knows kept Laura up at night.

The last time we left them Captain Broderick was in hospital after a gun-shot wound left him fighting for his life, and professing his undying Amore for Laura and of course forgetting he even told her that because of his injuries.

The second-season renewal is for 13 episodes and comes as the series will undergo a creative retooling with più of a procedural focus on the crime element and less on the mom story that made the mostra a critical punching bag.

The ad very precisely demonstrates that Debra Messing plays both a cop AND a mom (but-but-but how can she possibly do both?!).
