Is “Tru Calling” this year’s “The Ortegas,” the Fox show ordered but never heard from again last year? Could be. The network has decided to scale back on “Tru Calling” before the show’s second season has even begun. The Eliza Dushku drama won’t premiere Nov. 4 as planned and will be replaced by “North Shore.” The network also now only wants six episodes of “Tru” as opposed to the 13 it originally ordered. Fox also tinkered with other parts of its schedule. Oscar De La Hoya’s “The Next Great Champ” (he wasn’t so great on Saturday, getting knocked out by Bernard Hopkins) has received the TV equivalent of a standing eight count as it will leave the prime-time schedule Tuesday only to return 8 p.m. Fridays starting Oct. 22. {Sign On San Diego]
