Cybill Shepherd: CBS canceled my 1990s sitcom Cybill after I rejected Les Moonves' advances

The Hollywood Reporter

Cybill, starring Shepherd and Christine Baranski, ran for four seasons on CBS from 1995 through 1998, when it abruptly ended on a cliffhanger with the words "To be continued..." Shepherd revealed this morning in an interview with Sirius XM's The Michelle Collins Show that Moonves came on to her while they were at dinner in the 1990s. "He was, well, he was telling me his wife didn't turn him on, some mistress didn't turn him on," Shepherd explained, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "And ... he says, 'Well, you know, why don't you let me take you home?' I said, 'No, I've got a ride.' And I had my car outside with a good friend of mine who is an off-duty LAPD officer." Shepherd said her show was canceled "quite shortly afterward." Shepherd thinks had she had gone home with him, Cybill "would have run another five years."
