The TV Chick

UPDATED 5/18: No shows on the bubble anymore!

A lot of the shows I wanted to be renewed have been (Parenthood, V and Chuck to name a few). However, I am still waiting for a Life Unexpected renewal (as are a lot of us!) I would be shocked if it didn’t get a second season, and I know it would upset a lot of people. It was just announced today that Law and Order is canceled, which is a little surprising given the fact that if it went one more season, they could have beaten a big record. I can’t say I was watching too much of it anyway, but it is a big institution. As for new shows, Law and Order: LA (LOLA) should be interesting. No Ordinary Family has gotten a lot of buzz as has Friends With Benefits. I also (like many) miss Arrested Development, and I’m excited to see the new offering from Mitch Hurwitz and Will Arnett. One thing is for sure, I am looking forward to the 2010-2011 season!
