In a stunning move, CBS has axed both Ghost Whisperer and The New Adventures of Old Christine.
Also gone: Gary Unmarried, Cold Case, Miami Medical, Accidentally on Purpose, and Numb3rs.
Medium and Rules of Engagement, meanwhile, have been renewed.
Fans may want to hold off on eulogizing Ghost and Christine for a day or two. There’s an outside chance that ABC (which co-owns GW and has long coveted Christine) may swoop in and rescue one or both.
“There’s a 50/50 shot that Christine will move to ABC,” says one source. A reprieve for Ghost appears less likely. Final decisions are expected later this week. In the meantime, my Bubble Show Scorecard has been updated.
Life Unexpected and One Tree Hill Renewed!
Finally, some good news!
After months of on-the-bubble torture, The CW is officially bringing both One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected back for more. Talk about a sweet reprieve!
More CW goodness to come in just a minute, but for now let's all celebrate these fabulous pickups...
ABC News: Matthew Perry Is Back; V Gets Pushed; FlashForward Is Dead
If only we FlashForward fans could've seen this day coming months ago, it would have saved us a lot of time and heartache.
ABC has announced its official lineup for 2010-11, and along with the news that FlashForward is most assuredly and really gone (as rumored), V has been pushed back to midseason (?!), and Mr. Chandler Bing (hooray, Matthew Perry!) is coming back to your living room, here's what you need to know:
ABC is holding some of its most buzzed-about new series for 2011. Along with Perry's Mr. Sunshine (about a stadium owner turning 40), Steve McPherson and friends decided to hold Shonda Rhimes' new series Off the Map (doctors practicing at a remote clinic on a tropical island--it's Grey's meets Lost!) till midseason.
In the fall, ABC will be unveiling Body of Proof (Dana Delany as a medical examiner--undoubtedly less hazardous than living on Wisteria Lane), Better Together (a sitcom about couples starring Joanna Garcia--holler!), The Whole Truth (Jerry Bruckheimer legal drama that shows both sides of a case equally), My Generation (a dramedy about high school classmates and their lives 10 years later...Didn't Jason Ritter already do that one on CBS?), Detroit 1-8-7 (the dark comedy series with Michael Imperioli as a homicide detective that's shot docu-style à la The Office) and the one that sounds giddy good: No Ordinary Family, a dramedy about a family with superpowers from Greg Berlanti (Brothers & Sisters, Everwood, Eli Stone) and starring Julie Benz and Michael Chiklis.
ABC also picked up an "alternative" series for fall, Secret Millionaire, which follows filthy rich people volunteering in poor communities, and one more midseason offering: Happy Endings, a comedy starring Elisha Cuthbert (mountain lion!) about a couple who break up at the altar and have to divvy up their friends.
