I caught bits and pieces of Proven Innocent. Given what I saw, I am not surprised at this result. The previews didn’t do it a lot of justice either (pun intended). While you have to give Fox credit for trying a traditional-looking drama after their older skewing traditional comedies, this one didn’t excite. Doesn’t mean they shouldn’t try this route in the future with a different, higher quality show.
