Unofficial news surfaced this past week that Morning Musume's show "Haromoni" is being cancelled, and now it has been confirmed by Oricon. The Sunday afternoon show will ends its run on September 28.
The show started out as "Hello! Morning" in April 2000, but in April 2007 it changed its name and was reduced from 54 minutes to 24 minutes. Since then, ratings have continued to decline, resulting in the show being dropped from TV Tokyo's lineup. The program's replacement has not yet been announced. Link to article |

The new format was doomed from the start but the old format was just way too grueling for the kids. I'm sure they'll find some middle ground with a new variety show or AKB48 is going to scoop up all their fans with their new show.

Yeah, I do agree that the new format is worse, but I don't think sticking with the old format would've been any more successful. I don't think H!P is just going to give up, but ratings have been bad for a while and honestly, Morning Musume has been hit hard by the loss of key members and various scandals. And with all the competition now, it's only going to get harder.
