The final chapter may have been written for CBS' "Tuesday Night Book Club." The reality series was pulled from the CBS schedule after two low-rated episodes, a network spokesman said Thursday.

The June 13 premiere drew about 5 million viewers, with only about 4 million tuning in for the second airing. In contrast, reruns of CBS' popular "CSI" crime drama franchise are drawing 11 million viewers and up.

The Tuesday reality show, which followed the lives of members of a book club in Scottsdale, Ariz., will be replaced by reruns of "48 Hours Mystery."

There was no word on whether the six remaining episodes of "Tuesday Night Book Club" will be aired.
