(the previous part talks about a show using past simple)
...Due to the failure to attract viewers, this show had been closed after only 2 months since the day it was aired.
I feel that the above sentence should be rewritten as:
Due to the failure to attract viewers, this show was closed only two months after the day it was aired.
I think the second version is correct, but I can't tell for sure if the first one is or isn't wrong. So, are both of them correct? Which one do you think is better?
