Sorry I was just going out, so I lazily didn't quote the post, I was asking "Brooklyn 911?" too, it was this one, not a question about whether it was being renewed, thanks for the answers though

AMC has renewed a lot of it's shows in the hope they'll grow, none of them really have.
I can think of only two or three shows in the past few years that grown massively in the middle of their run and sustained that growth, The Walking Dead, which started big anyway and only continued to grow, and Game of Thrones, which didn't exactly start small either.
Also, given ABC have just renewed Agent Carter, so it's not really true.”
Seem to remember Brooklyn was on the edge of cancellation before it got nommed for some awards.
