Cancelled & Renewed ABC TV Shows for 2011-12

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). For a list of cancelled shows from all networks, you can go here. It may also be possible that we missed something so feel free to let us know in the comments below.

Just went thru all the series that are cancelled. It is so sad that there are so many good shows going and yet almost all the “reality” crap isn’t.
So, I guess that we all need to pay yet another $30-$40 a month for the premium Movie Channels, right? They are still commercial-free just like cable used to be, remember? And they have alot of series going and $140 a month just isn’t enough for CBS, NBC and all the rest of the stations.
Now that is “reality”.

Who is in charge of these canceled shows? I am sick of all these reality shows ABC – you’ve cancelled Pan Am what a great cast and show. And the only show to discuss God!at all is GCB I LOVE THIS SHOW the cast they are FABULOUS. Plus THIS show has bettter ratings than Body of Proof and thats still on. I am through with ABC.!! Can Lifettime or Oxygen buy these shows they are FABULOUS!! Who cares what atheists think or relegion fanactics think……. tell them to watch SPARTACUS HA! HA! that will really give them something to talk about. GCB and Pan Am were excellent shows well-written and who ever cancelled them probably never watched them.. TOTALLY AGAINST ABC – GIVE A SHOW A CHANCE !!!

The River is cancelled? Why? That show kept you guessing and on the edge of your seat. Instead we get more dumb shows like the Biggest Loser, Americas Got Talent, and all of the other stupid reality shows on every single night. Time to get rid of the TVs and open some books.

Agree, can’t we please get back to good old fashion tv? I live reality every day, it is so nice to sit down and watch Revenge, Missing, Homeland and countless others, The Firm etc…. and get away from reality for an hour or so….someone please listen…..

Missing was the best action show ever. I looked forward watching it every week. You asked the wrong people who watched it in your poll. Everyone I talked to loved it. I think it was a stupid move. Ashley Judd is a great actress.

Forgot to add 2 more that have been on too long and are tiresome now – Batchleor and Batchleorette.

These are my picks to be cancelled – Scandal, Modern Family and don’t Trust Bitch in Apt 23. Do not watch them at all.

Carol and Lee May 27, 2012 at 9:20 pm

Please, can someone reply with the real reason as to why “Missing” was cancelled?????
Such a great show, the actors were superb and the show kept me on the edge of my chair. Take some of those stupid reality programs off the networks and leave shows like this one on!!

It’s simple. Not enough people watched.

I totally agree with Carol & Lee. This show had reinvigorated my interest in nighttime TV! The scenery, the characters, the twists and turns, and the cliffhanger of an ending… what happened???? Please continue this show!~

I never watched it but it looks like everyone thought it was great…was it really that good ?

Come On, cancelling Missing? Finally, there is a show on worth watching. Great story line with great actor’s. You’d think Wife Swap would be cancelled before Missing. Now, that’s bad t.v!! BRING MISSING BACK!!
