It seemed like one of those shows at an end of an order block. Usually the network will greenlight X number of episodes, so they tend to write story arcs to fit in the episodes.

Probably edited a bit to make it close out a bit, but the original order was for 13 episodes. They stopped it mid production.

I really wish Fox wouldn't pull this crap. They have a great idea for a show, they put it on the air. It's great, then they pull it, and stick more "reality" BS and cookie cutter sitcoms on. Drives me up the wall.
Well, they had originally filmed it for the fall, but then at the last minute, pushed it off to the spring. I suspect that the strike got in the way of running more episodes.
And, even though it did well in its post-idol spot to start, it still hasn't been renewed.

Thats one possibility, but the timing doesn't quite support it. Production was closed down about 3 weeks before the strike started, with still 2 weeks left in the current writers contracts and talks still ongoing.
The short but simple news article reporting this didn't even mention the strike:
The Hollywood Reporter

Unfortunately it didn't hold onto its original success. Amsterdam kept falling and turned in ratings making Fox the least watched network for that timeslot. Quite a fall.

Fox manages to hook me all the time, and it really pisses me off. Kinda like Lucy holding the football.
