ABC Renews 6 Favorites (and a lot of Reality TV)
April 23rd, 2009
Taking much of the excitement and suspense out of next month’s annual Upfront, ABC announced today that they are picking up 12 of their current shows for next season. Which means actors on UGLY BETTY, GREY’S ANATOMY, PRIVATE PRACTICE, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, BROTHERS & SISTERS and LOST can relax and breath a big sigh of relief (Yes, we’re talking to you @michaelurie)
Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the likes of veteran stars such as Nathan Fillion, Christina Applegate, Bob Saget, Bobby Cannivale, Megan Mullally and Harold Perrineau — all of whom will have to wait until ABC’s May 19th presentation in New York City to discover the official fate of SCRUBS, BETTER OFF TED, SAMANTHA WHO, IN THE MOTHERHOOD, THE UNUSUALS, CASTLE, SURVIVING SUBURBIA and CUPID.
That is, unless they want to sign on the dotted line to be the next star on DANCING WITH THE STARS, THE BACHELOR or SUPERNANNY, all of which got expected pick ups for yet another season of ‘fun,’ alongside fellow reality show (read: filler) such as AMERICA’S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS, EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION and WIFE SWAP.

I’ve been a big Scrubs fan for years, but I think it is time for it to go. Esp since Bill Lawrence and Zach Braff have said they aren’t coming back. I’d like to see Better Off Ted and Samantha Who? get picked up. I watch Castle, but to be honest I’m not that into it. I mostly watch for Fillion.
