OMG nearly all my fave shows have gone this season.

Crowded has gone too, although I didn't hold much hope for it.

I feel sorry for Undateable. It did well for two seasons and then NBC screwed the show over by moving it to fridays. Of course it was going to do bad.

Undatebale and Heartbeat cancelled

Shocked about Sleepy Hollow. Expect the ratings to go even lower following what went down in the finale.
The sleep hollow renewal may be to increase the number of episodes so it sells better. Doesnt matter to me though as after the mess that was the third season i wont be watching season four

No surprise Heartbeat cancelled
Melissa George is too good an actress for a crap show like this, she deserves better.

That's a shocker! The finale was very much 'give no shits, our lead actress wants out, so burn everything' plot! They've irrevocably lost that key piece that made SH even vaguely watchable during it's terrible past couple of years. If there is no Tom and Nicole chemistry to look forward to, I see very little to look forward to in SH's next (and surely final) season! Overall, there does seem to have been a fairly wholesale grand culling in the past week, even those shows that had glimmers of hope have been cut, so something like Sleepy Hollow survives, which was all but a dead show walking for most of this year, is pretty unbelievable. They must be looking to hole-fill for Fridays with this, at best. No way does it even start the year in a primetime slot. It also alludes to a rather thin pipeline for Fox, with perhaps just not enough new prospects to be sure of filling up their schedule. Upfronts will be interesting this year.

I think the only shows not confirmed as renewed or cancelled now are

Rush Hour - most likely to be cancelled
The Mysteries of Laura
Code Black
Limitless - hopefully will be renewed on international sales
Criminal Minds Beyond Borders
The Odd Couple

CSI Cyber biting the dust is hard,y a shock. It's going to be a busy week round here I think.
Here's hoping that other CBS embarrassment Criminal Minds: Beyond Boredom gets kicked into touch as well, poor script and the acting is on a par with poor am dram.

Damsons new show won't last either, six episodes before cancellation.

My opinion is the opposite, I see nothing worthy of praise, Heartbeat could have been something but the eternally botoxed George brought nothing to the show. She should have stuck to Home & Away because that's her level.

Still some not decided by the main networks, however the schedules are almost full i would say.

I'm not surprised with Limitless as its a very unusual show as I'm watching at UK pace and some recent episodes have been very bizarre so I would be shocked if it continues on a major network though!

What a shame that a show that dares to be a bit different doesn't get renewed whereas cookie cutter procedurals like Criminal Minds continues to be renewed

The way some of these US networks treat shows makes me proud to be British.

It's not like the BBC are much better. They treat some of the Sunday night dramas with contempt.

And apart from Dr Who, they don't do scifi and mystery shows much better.

It hasn't officially been cancelled yet

and the reason why a show like Criminal minds continues to get renewed because it delivers good ratings, does well around the world and makes them money in syndication.

It's not rocket science why CBS are renewing it.

Looking at it from a financial view Criminal minds makes money for CBS locally and by having CMBB as well it adds even more plus it has a well known star in Sinese. Obviously CBS dont make money internationally from either as its ABC that makes the money here. So even though Limitless is wholly owned by CBS and has good international money coming in its not matching CM and CMBB locally plus add in local ratings and its an obvious financial decision.

Having said all that it still kind of sucks.

From what i have read Cruel Intentions may get picked up by NBC but for summer 2017. I kind of hope that it not the case but im not sure where NBC could put it in the fall or even midseason.

sleepy hollow renewed
I thought Season 3 was so terrible that I stopped watching so I'm surprised it's getting another Season.
