Oxygen is not moving forward with a third season of The Glee Project, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Although the cable network declined to comment, sources confirm that a number of factors — not the least of which is that Glee itself hasn’t been renewed yet — contributed to the decision to shelve the reality spin-off.

Ratings also likely played a part. Despite favorable reviews and a passionate following, the series was a modest performer for Oxygen.

Meanwhile, negotiations to bring Glee back for a fifth season continue between Fox and 20th TV.
