The Alphabet has begun its process of setting things up for next week’s Upfronts by renewing all the shows everyone knew would be renewed: MODERN FAMILY, GREY’S ANATOMY, THE MIDDLE, CASTLE, DANCING WITH THE STARS, SHARK TANK and THE BACHELOR, as well as this season’s new hits ONCE UPON A TIME, SUBURGATORY and REVENGE.
That still leaves a sizable number of bubble shows, including SCANDAL, DON’T TRUST THE B___, HAPPY ENDINGS, PRIVATE PRACTICE and BODY OF PROOF still dangling for at least another day.
