I don't think the additional episodes would have been enough to save the show. I watched the whole thing and enjoyed it as a guilty pleasure, but the writing, the acting, and the CGI were all atrocious. But it's not because the story was bad; it was just executed in the cheapest, most cringe-worthy way possible.
I wish it had helped Kalen's career, though. She has some really good songs, and I was expecting at least a small boost in her popularity.
