Upfronts: Renew and Cancel Rumor Mongering – Continued!

Posted on 13 May 2008 by Robert Seidman

Update: 9:00am PDT 5/13/08: I’ve been continuously updating this list as best I can. And at this point the ABC information is pretty rock solid — and Oprah’s Big Give will not be back either! Things are looking dire for Moonlight as I read the tea leaves but I have not seen anything official as of this writing.

Update: 1:10PDT May 12: Moonlight switched from the Renew list to the Cancel list — still just a rumor, but that’s the most recent available info.

There’s more jibber jabber than anything official, but to keep you up to speed on what I’m reading the following shows have been (or are at least rumored to be) picked up or dropped. I’m just updating the list. Some of them are official, while others (Moonlight, Reaper, Eli Stone) are just rumors and speculation! Not on the list (because I didn’t see a title is another Ashton Kutcher (in addition to “Opportunity Knocks) production that he’s doing with — Tyra Banks for ABC. “It combines ‘Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” with ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire’ and is right in our brand,” Steve McPherson, ABC Entertainment president said said.

Scary brand, no?

Adds/Renews:

Drops/Cancels:

Other:

CBS considering picking up Back to You

I put this in the comments, but will just stick it here as well in regards to Peter’s request to separate fact from rumor: Technically nothing is definite until it’s been announced formally by the networks. It’s easier to say that Reaper, Moonlight, How I Met Your Mother and The Unit are the least definite, and everything else probably is (but by no means definitely is) true.

  4. Julie, did you see something official? If so, please link to it. I just saw CBS picked up “Old Christine”, but have not yet seen anything official re: Moonlight.

    CBS habitually has sucky TV shows; For the first time they have a great show MOONLIGHT on their hands and they want to throw it away? I refuse to believe it. :(

  6. Mark says:

    personally i refuse to watch a single new show next year after this disaster of a season. I think 60% of the new shows I watched got cancelled.
