Bad news, "Glee" fans .

you'll be getting a little less music and drama this season.

给喜欢 欢乐合唱团　的粉丝们送上一个坏消息.

你们爱看的这部美剧的集数被缩减了。

FOX has cut "Glee" Season 5 down from 22 episodes to 20 episodes, per The Hollywood Reporter.

This is the first time that the network has decided to air less of the musical dramedy.

好莱坞报道　报道，FOX电视台把 欢乐合唱团　原定的22集缩减为20集，这是FOX电视台这么多年来做的首个缩减集数的决定。

The official reason for the two episode cut is because of the production hiatus the cast and crew took after series star Cory Monteith's sudden death.

The show's ratings have also been in decline; recent episodes have hovered around a 1.

0 rating in adults 18-49.

FOX电视台官方给出的缩集原因是因为 欢乐合唱团　男演员Cory Monteith的死给这部剧的拍摄进度带来了影响。

而这部剧的收视率也大降，最近几集的18-49岁人群的平均收视仅仅维持在1.

0左右。

FOX has already renewed the series for Season 6 (which will be its final one) so this won't affect the future of the show.

It just means there will be two fewer episodes this season.

There's also a chance the two episodes could be added to the final season.

FOX已经续订了 欢乐合唱团　第六季，所以这个决定对这部剧的未来影响还是不大，只是这一季大家将会少看两集。

另外也有机会在最后一季补上这两集。
