Nick Lachey's dreams of TV stardom have been dashed after a network decided not to pick up his new show. Lachey was working on a TV pilot about a newlywed professional baseball player for the WB. The network recently merged with another network, causing fewer potential new series to be given the green light.

A source says, "There are only so many openings on the new network. Nick's show didn't make the cut."

A source close to Lachey confirms plans for the show have been cancelled saying, "The network loves Nick - they just weren't into the baseball show. They're putting together another project for him."
