When 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).

What do you think? Which ABC TV shows won’t be renewed? Are there any that you wish would be cancelled?
I really liked Expedition Impossible.
I think it’s a bad move to cancel Missing and Harry’s Law these are my favorites also House”!!!!!! Please rethink these it seems that before long all we will be able to watch is the voice , American idol , Americas got talent, dancing with the stars or reality tv yuk!!!!!
Really ?!?! You cancelled MISSING ?!? That’s one of the best new shows that has come along in a very long time. Stop ‘dumbing’ down America and give us some quality shows. Most of the reality shows stink but you never cancel them. And if you didn’t shove so many shows down our throats at the same time, some of these excellent shows would survive. Please reconsider bringing back MISSING or at least film an ending episode or 2 hr movie special to clear it all up.
I can not believe they cancelled Missing! Best show that’s been on in a very long time.
I cannot believe GCB is cancelled, best show in a long time. How can you keep shows like the Bachelor. I love you GCB no matter what the network says, this was the only ABC show I watched except for my favorite morning show, GMA. WHAT were you thinking?
You cancelled Missing?? I think all exes need an IQ test! the fingers are not on the pules of what is considered entertainment…SHAME!!!!!
Is it me or does ABC have their head up their REARS? Desperate Housewives gone.. Missing didn’t even get a chance, but great show. Ashley Judd is excellent – the new peeps from ABC have to go. I loathe them and will not be watching ABC ever again, I have no interest in any of the shows they are playing – total lame!
I LOVED the show GCB and have been telling so many others to tune in. NOW I learn that it is cancelled. I am SO very tired to the reality tv shows!! A number of us actually enjoy the weekly sitcoms.
It’s too bad that a great show like Pan Am is cancelled. I, for one, enjoyed it as it was like watching history..nostalgic. And yet they keep on with mindless shows like The Bachelor & The Bachelorette, Wipeout… Hmmmmm..It’s all about target audiences
I wish GCB was renewed. I loved that show.
OMG -What are you CEO executive network people thinking of cancelling GBC,MISSING, Body of Proof, Castle, and Private Practice. They are the best shows you have had on for a long time. Which includes Grey’s and Scandal. WHY WHY take them off the air when they make you money. I promise you that if you take them off . ABC will go under .
OMG – What the heck are you CEO’s executive network people thinking. Taking off all the good show like Body of Proof, Castle , Private Practice, MISSING, GCB,
Carolyn » What list are you looking at? The first three have been renewed.
I truly cannot believe Missing is cancelled?! It’s only had a few episodes! Pan Am is another one I liked and I feel was never given a chance being taken off for weeks and then brought back. The stuff they keep on is so stupid. The dumbing of America?
