ABC went on a renewal craze on Thursday, ordering new seasons of Grey’s Anatomy, Quantico, Agents of SHIELD, Once Upon a Time, and seven other scripted series, along with a couple of reality renewals as well. These moves come two months before Upfronts in May, where most television networks announce the fates of their series, and ensure that the majority of ABC’s fall lineup will remain the same when the 2016-17 TV season kicks off.
In addition to the four shows mentioned above, other series that were renewed include Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder, black-ish, Fresh Off the Boat, The Goldbergs, The Middle, Modern Family, Dancing With the Stars The Bachelor, Shark Tank, and America’s Funniest Home Videos.
When it comes ABC’s veteran scripted series, Grey’s Anatomy will be entering its 13th season; Modern Family, and The Middle will be heading into Season 8; and Once Upon a Time and Scandal will be entering their sixth seasons. Meanwhile, The Goldbergs and Agents of SHIELD both scored Season 4 renewals; black-ish, How to Get Away With Murder, and Fresh Off the Boat will be entering their third seasons; and Quantico will return for Season 2.
The fates of Castle, Nashville, Last Man Standing, Dr. Ken, The Muppets, American Crime, Galavant, and Agent Carter are still TBD.
