Now that Jamie Lynns Show Zoey 101 has been cancelled, one can only assumed Jamies parents may have to start counting their pennies, and downsize Big Time and look for a Double Wide Trailer as lucrative job offers will dry up for their darling daughter who may soon need to move in back with Mom and Dad. It is refreshing to know Kevin Federline, Britneys Ex is offering his support as mentor in these trying times for both of them, except Kevin's meal ticket (Britney's) is assured, versus the parents of Jamie Lynn Meal Ticket will soon vanish quicker than Britneys Buzzcut. But then there is always money to be made by the parents to the paparazzi and tabloids in photo ops, ultrasound video of the' baby, exclusive interviews and reality TV. Certainly a "Southern Peach" whose life like her big Sis has quickly turned the Pits.

Jamie Lynn Spears' TV axe

The fourth and final season of Jamie Lynn Spears' TV show 'Zoey 101' has been "canned".

(BANG) -

Jamie Lynn Spears' TV show has been "canned".

The 16-year-old star has already filmed the fourth and final season of kids' show 'Zoey 101' but now Jamie has announced she is pregnant TV bosses are concerned they will send out the wrong message to the young audience if the series is aired.

A show source said: "Nickelodeon bosses are still undecided whether to air season four or not. For now, it looks like it has been canned."

Jamie - who revealed she is expecting her first child with long-term boyfriend Casey Aldridge last month - initially received the full support of the network.

A spokesman said at the time: "We respect Jamie Lynn's decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn's wellbeing."

Nickelodeon also announced they were considering a 'Zoey 101' TV special about sex and love.

Meanwhile, it has been reported Jamie's former brother-in-law Kevin Federline - who is currently embroiled in a custody battle with Jamie's sister Britney Spears - has been offering his support to the teenager in her time of need.

A source said: "Kevin has long thought of Jamie Lynn as a little sister.

"He was heartbroken because he was concerned about what it would mean for Jamie Lynn's future. He just wants to be part of the support system."
