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).

Pan Am should be renewed!

I hope they Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice and Revenge. Revenge is one of the best new shows out there. Can’t wait till the next episode…just like The River…very good show. I would like to see Cougar Town, Pan Am, and Wife Swap canceled. Those are lame, boring shows. And I am very happy that Rookie Blue is being given another chance. Only thing that show needs to work on is the main female actor…Andi…and not making the show all about her. Everything bad that happens always happens to her and there are others that can take some action. That is my 2 cents worth. Oh and what happened to Off The Map? Another good show lost.

My husband and I love the show “Revenge” and hope it will be renewed. Need to get rid of all the reality shows that have become so BORING. I think “Revenge” should have received an A for one of the best shows on tv this past fall. It has a good storyline and is a thousand times better than the silly reality shows.

AFV is good, bring back EMHE, cancel all other garbage reality shows.

They should cancel all the stupid reality shows. Top of the list The Bachelor and Bachelorette. Both shows are just plain stupid. How times do you have to listen to them after each fake date I’m really falling for her or him. These shows are scripted so in truth there is no reality about them. What person with any intelligences can sit and watch this crap. And before you start saying don’t watch it. I don’t and nor does anyone else in my household. My daughters are for bidden from watching full grown adults act like Jr High kids fighting over a certain or girl in school. The IQ level of this show is near zero. Last years Bachelor was a convicted felon a drunk and a thief. What more is there to say about this show. Not a whole lot. Except Canel.

Last years Bachelor was a girl….so how do you know so much about something that you dont watch? You must Google stuff about the show…but yet you dont like it. Interesting.

Keep Revenge and Grey’s Anatomy, especially since you have as yet to bring back V and then I really would just have to turn off the boob tube altogether.

keep 101 ways to leave a gameshow, last man standing, and millionaire, but, for the love of god, kill off grey’s anatomy, AFV, the Revolution, and the bachelor(bachelorette)! reality tv is dead!

i agree with edy. ABC does not exist n my house any longer since u canceled V. It was a awesome series. Something I enjoyed watching. An u not only cancel it but u leave it the way u did. So many unanswered questions. If u could see me, ud see me giving u the bird!

I really like Charlie’s Angels and think the show wasn’t given a fair shot.

Reply

Eric January 30, 2012 at 10:57 am

Charlie’s Angels was a horribly written show and a horribly acted show. It deserved it.

I liked it.

Channels used to move shows around to try and save them.

I loved Charlies Angels. Wasnt given a fair chance. Actors and story line was great!

Is there a network called ABC? Since they took off V I took them off my watching schedule…so take that.

Reply

Seriously?

I watched the first episode of V and was surprised it stayed on as long as it did.

Reply

Ann February 19, 2012 at 11:15 pm

Sorry have to agree…V was horrible. Glad it is gone.
