Renew/Cancel Odds for TV Shows Still on the Bubble
At this time last year, there were fewer than 40 broadcast shows still on the bubble. This year? Nearly 70. While The CW has given early pickups to nearly every one of its shows, the other four networks have renewed only a select few, leaving the fates of many series up in the air with less than two months to go before the networks make their 2017-18 schedule announcements.
To determine which of those shows look safe, and which are in danger of cancellation, we have surveyed a variety of experts. Below, browse the resulting renew/cancel odds for over 60 scripted shows still on the bubble (listed in alphabetical order).
Last fall, ABC attempted to introduce a new show, Notorious, into its TGIT lineup. An instant failure, that show is considered to be canceled, as ABC reduced its order from 13 to 10 episodes. Unlike that program, fellow TGIT member The Catch is a genuine Shonda Rhimes production. But in its second season, The Catch's ratings are even lower than those for Notorious, and are down over 20% compared to last season.
