What do you think? Which ABC Family TV shows do you watch? Which ones would you like to see come back next season?
Whatever happend to the good old days when tv was fun to watch and the shows were really show none of this reality crap with this one and that one and teen mothers what’s with that parents talk to your kids befor it’s to late. And bring back good tv no more of that reality tv it’s crap.
I liked Make it or Break it! I want to see it come back.. Bunheads is just starting to get good. It’s sad to see all these good shows get cancelled for crappy reality tv or trashy shows! Keep the good shows on for the viewers who do watch, just change the time slot and maybe these shows wouldn’t get cancelled..
I think Bunheads should definitely be renewed. I love the show. I almost stopped watching ABC Family after the cancellation on Make It or Break It. Now Bunheads is the only show I make sure I catch every week. If it can maintain its current ratings I don’t see it not being picked up for a second half at least. It’s ratings are 4th highest on the network beating Secret Life and Jane by Design.
Renew Bunheads!
Keep Bunheads. The banter between Mother and D-in-law is great.
New shows for 2011/2012 season? Aren’t we a little late for that?
[Hint: we’re about to start the 2012/13 season!]
Super Dave » Hint: “These are the shows that have aired (or would have aired) during the 2011-12 season — roughly September 2011 through August 2012.”
Bunheads is approaching the goodness of Gilmore Girls. Please give it a second season. It is a wonderful and intelligent show.
I so love BUNHEADS…Please renew!!!!!!!

Greek is teh best, but I also like Pretty Little Liars, Jane By Design, The Lying Game and Switched at Birth.
I liked nine lives of chloe king & loved miobi but they were cancelled. Now the only good shows on this channel are Pll,Jane by Design,Bunheads,Lying Game. I hope Bunheads at least gets more episodes(i doubt jbd will & tlg after its initial season two order).I was really hoping Secret Circle woulget to air on abcfamily.The Mexican telenova and the JLO lesbian pilots they picked up dont interest mr.I watched Wilfire too.abcfamily & CW are my favorite channels.
i love pretty little liars! it’s abc family’s best show!
There is quite a drop off in viewers after Pretty Little Liars and Switched at Birth. Kind of reminds me of the CW.
Love Secret Life, Melisa & Joey, Baby Daddy, and Jane By Design. I also love Switched at Birth and Lying Game. I would watch even more of this channel if they would bring back Chloe King, and Huge, and Make it or Break It. And if this network is smart they will jump on picking up Secret Circle and keep that running as well. The audience is perfect for this show. One can only hope.
Nine lives of Chloe king was such a good show. I was really loooking forward to season 2
