Modern Family on ABCWhen is your favorite ABC TV show coming back or, has it already been cancelled? What TV series have been renewed for another season? How many episodes have been ordered? Well, wonder no more. Here’s a list of all of the regular ABC series that have aired (or are expected to air) during the 2011-12 season (now roughly September 2011 – August 2012).

Using this “cheat sheet” you can tell where your favorite ABC program stands; how many episodes are in the current season, when it’ll be back on the air and, of course, if it’s already been renewed or cancelled.

If you can’t find a particular ABC program on this list, it may have been cancelled last season (2010-11) or perhaps the one before (2009-10).

Missing was so awesome! I agree with everyone else that it should be brought back! Now I basically have no shows to watch, thanks a lot ABC! >;( Missing was actually real and showed basically how real people would act if someone special/important to them or family was stolen. Out with the dumb drama of reality shows that take over everything on every channel, and in with REAL shows that have significance! Conitinue MISSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree! My husband and I loved watching Missing. I ususally DVR-ed it and watched it when I had alone time from my 1 yr old! I think the series should have been renewed at least for another season!

Bring back Missing and The River…..was wrong to let both of them end that way…leaving faithful followers wanting and needing more to the story…only to cancel both due to the popularity of Reality shows…we got to many of them anyways…wished we had one station left, besides the weather channel, that would say hell no to reality and yes to shows that actually mean something!!!!

Missing is one of the only programs I never. Please renew it!

There are only 3 shows that I watch and they are as follows in no particular order.
1- Body of Proof with Dana Delaney
2- Army Wives
3- Missing with Ashley Judd- You can’t be serious about cancelling this show.

Last season or maybe it was the season before their was a medical show in a jungle setting that I loved and guess what it got cancelled also. I don’t know who is making the decisions on what programs to have versus which ones not but please cut down on the REALITY SHOWS prior to getting rid of a REAL SHOW. At this rate you can probably tell that most of my time is spent watching Movies that I check out at the Blockbuster Kiosk versus watching TV.

Ashley Judd is a great actress, and did a damn fine job in “Missing”, along with her fellow actors. I think it is a mistake to cancell this after one season, it seems, it has places to go to continue the suspense. Loved it.

I totally agree with Kristie. That show was awesome, and so many of my family and friends thought so too. It always kept you on the edge of your seat. Missing left at such a great spot that it would be easy to continue the show. Hope they reconsider their decision.

I would really like missing to keep being aired. Missing is an amazing show and Ashley Judd is at the top of her game. The show was so suspenseful. We where entertained every minute.
