The CW ultimately did not pickup the revamped version, and the show was left without a home.<\/p>\n<p>If picked up by BET, the show would remain a half-hour, traditional sitcom.<\/p>\n<p>Because the options on the series&#8217; lead actors have expired, the studio would have to renegotiate pacts to keep the principals on board.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; &#8220;Glee&#8221; regular Jayma Mays will reprise her role of Charlie for a fourth season episode of &#8220;Heroes,&#8221;
