May 12, 201213 yr Member Happy Endings better be renewed. It was ABC's second highest sitcom and yet they treated it pretty badly when they aired new episodes after Modern Family repeats. Yeah Happy Endings is becoming ABC's new Cougar Town LOL. But to ABC's credit when they air it after a new episode of Modern Family, it often bled a lot of the Modern Family lead in, just like Cougar Town before it. Happy Endings really isn't compatible at all with Modern Family or anything else on the Wednesday block (and neither was Cougar Town). Next season I would maybe pair up Happy Endings and B in Apt 23 and air them as part of a Comedy Block on a different night
May 12, 201213 yr Member Happy Endings works so hard to be "cute" and have all their self-aware quips that it's difficult to like or care about most of the people involved. I never had a lot of interest in the show, but my mother enjoyed it, until she got tired of how forced it was.
May 12, 201213 yr Author Administrator Malibu Country picked up. Yeah Happy Endings is becoming ABC's new Cougar Town LOL.

I do agree with putting Happy Endings and Apt 23 together.
May 12, 201213 yr Member As long as my Revenge has been renewed, I'm good. Although, I'm happy to see Jonathan Jackson getting his pilot picked up. Hopefully, Nashville will make better use of his talent than the Godawful soap that wasted him.
May 12, 201213 yr Member Sad about GCB but happy about Body of Proof..love the show. Glad Devious Maids wasnt picked up for so many reasons...I doubt ABC wants another Marc Cherry lawsuit on their hands...lol...and I just didnt see DM doing well. I am so sick of The Bachelor ...it is worn out its welcome long long time ago...the ratings suck....of course they dont have to pay that much for the crapfest that it is.....and Dont trust the B...how could they renew that show..the ratings were dreadful....they pulled in the same numbers as GCB.
May 12, 201213 yr Member Mistresses picked up. Never heard of it...lol....ABC programming sure sucks...lol
May 12, 201213 yr Member Last Man Standing renewed. I liked this show and the ratings were good but then the show lost steam and so did the ratings.
May 12, 201213 yr Member I liked this show and the ratings were good but then the show lost steam and so did the ratings. Pretty much this. Hopefully they can the show back on track. Plus being ABC's only multi-cam (lets pretend Work-It never happened shall we?) while leading off the night was bound to make things difficult for it and factored into the renewal. I imagine they'll pair it up with Reba's multi-cam Malibu Country and/or How To Live with Your Parents multi-cam/hybrid, which should help out all shows.
May 12, 201213 yr Member "Malibu Country" really does look like a rehash of the old Reba show, but I'm cool with that. I can't wait to see her back on TV, and this is the first network sitcom that I've actively looked forward to in yeeeeeeeears. "Nashville" and "666 Park Ave" are the only dramas that interest me, especially "Nashville." Connie Britton in a primetime soap about the country music industry? Oh yes.
May 14, 201213 yr Member Kind of surprised they passed on the Mandy Moore sitcom because as i remember it, they went after it pretty hard because she had almost went to another network. nashville looks interesting but i do not see it lasting. sad about GCB, but not surprised. It was a fun show, but nothing great and had a lot of issues. So happy Scandal and Happy Endings are back, my favorites ABC has to offer. I would be more happy about Cougar Town going to TBS but this season has been awful. I dont think they should touch Revenge. Leave on Wed at 10pm at least for another season to establish it further.
May 15, 201213 yr Member Revenge moves to Sunday at 9. Nashville airing at 10pm Wednesday. Last Man Standing moves to Fri at 8. Apt 23 and Happy Endings get cushy slot after DWTS on Tues. Some interesting moves. I hope it pays off for them.
May 15, 201213 yr Member Revenge is at 9? Damn it. Do they not know that's HBO/Showtime/AMC night? Sunday as totally gone to the basic cable channels now. They just have better programming.
