  1. BBC America announced today that Orphan Black has been renewed for a third season. 10 new episodes of the drama have been ordered for a return in 2015. The show, which is BBC America's second original drama, wrapped Season 2 last month.
  2. Showtime announced today that Penny Dreadful has been renewed for a second season. The freshman drama premiered just last month, where it has since been met with critical praise and healthy ratings, averaging 4.8 million weekly viewers across all platforms. The network has ordered 10 new episodes of the series for Season 2, with an expected return in 2015.
  3. According to the couple she lived with in Texas. Ann fell in her bathroom early this morning and hit her head causing grave damage. We're told she never regained consciousness. Her roommate says Davis had been pretty healthy for an 88-year old woman -- and her death was a total shock. In fact, she even walked downstairs to say goodnight before going to bed. Davis played the housekeeper Alice Nelson for the entire original run of "The Brady Bunch" from 1969 to 1974. She also filled the role for countless other TV movies and reunions. She last played Alice for 5 episodes of "The Bradys" in 1990. Ann was very close to some members of the church she attended in Texas and it has been reported that they are currently planning her funeral arrangements.
  4. Canadian network Space has renewed freshman series Bitten for a second season in 2015. The supernatural drama, which airs on Syfy in the States, has been picked up for 10 more episodes that will begin filming this summer. The series is popular up north and has become Space's #1 original series of all time. US fans will surely be pleased with the news, as the show's return to Syfy appears likely - though no official statement has been made as of yet regarding a stateside pickup. (Source: Space)
  5. It was confirmed today that Two and a Half Men will be ending its run after its upcoming twelfth season. CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler made the announcement at the network's press presentation to discuss their fall schedule. Show creator Chuck Lorre is said to be creating a "season-long event" to conclude the series, which will be ending in 2015 after over 250 episodes.
  6. TBS has cancelled Men at Work after three seasons. The comedy premiered in 2012 and aired 10 episodes each season for a total of 30. The show's finale aired this past March.
  7. CBS has cancelled Intelligence, pulling the plug on the freshman drama after just one season. The mid-season show premiered in January and aired a 13-episode season, concluding in March.
  8. ABC has renewed Nashville for a third season. The country music drama has continued to be a decent performer for the network, garnering fairly steady ratings week to week. Over its two seasons, the show has won critical acclaim and amassed a loyal following of fans. Music from the series has also been steadily released featuring songs sang by the cast. The Season 2 finale of Nashville airs this Wednesday, May 14. Look for Season 3 to return this fall.
  9. NBC has cancelled Dracula, axing the new drama after one season. The show aired for a short 10-episode run during 2013-2014, but drew lackluster ratings over the course of the season. Dracula joins Believe and Crisis as other recently-cancelled NBC freshman dramas.
  10. CBS has renewed The Mentalist for a seventh season. The once-ratings heavyweight has seen its viewership dip in recent years, falling to series lows in Season 6, which concludes May 18. It is rumored that the show will return for one final season of 13 episodes, short of its typical order of 22 or more.
  11. ABC has renewed Last Man Standing for a fourth season. The Tim Allen comedy has experienced continued success on Friday nights, where it has been airing since moving from Tuesdays after Season 1. Look for Season 4 of Last Man Standing to premiere this fall.
  12. TBS has renewed Cougar Town for a sixth and final season. The Courteney Cox comedy has been airing on the cable network since its move from ABC in early 2013. The show will conclude its run with 13 episodes that will air in early 2015. During that time it will surpass the 100-episode milestone.
  13. CBS has cancelled Hostages after one season. The freshman suspense drama ran for 15 episodes during 2013-2014 but failed to draw significant viewership during its run. With the storyline effective wrapped up in the show's final episode, many already expected that it would not return.
  14. CBS has cancelled new comedy Bad Teacher. The mid-season series premiered just last month and has only aired three episodes. Ratings have been average thus far but clearly not at levels the network would like to see in its time slot.
  15. CBS has cancelled The Crazy Ones after one season. The Robin Williams comedy got off to a strong start when it premiered last September. Four weeks into its run it ranked as the season's #1 new comedy, causing the network to pick up the full season of the show. Things, however, got worse during the second half the season. Ratings started to dip, and by its finale fell to less than half of what it pulled in during its early episodes.
  16. NBC has renewed About a Boy for a second season. The freshman comedy has been enjoying a successful run since premiering in February after the Olympics. Adapted from the book and movie of the same name, About a Boy has been one of the network's best-rated comedies this season, airing along side other newbie Growing Up Fisher in the 9:00pm hour following The Voice.
  17. NBC has cancelled Believe after one season. The freshman drama premiered in March but failed to attract viewers in its Sunday night time slot. Nine of the show's 13 episodes have aired thus far, and it appears the remaining four will air as scheduled. The finale is currently scheduled for June 1.
  18. NBC has cancelled Revolution, opting to pull the plug on the sophomore series after two seasons. The show's Season 2 ratings have been lackluster, and far below its Season 1 numbers. Revolution got off to a strong start when it first premiered in 2012, debuting with a strong 4.1 rating in the adults 18-49 demo and staying at a 2.6 or above for the first half of the season. Viewership dipped for the back half but stayed at a respectable number to warrant a renewal. The show's second season has been a different story, with its premiere starting at a 1.8 and falling as low as 1.1 for its most-recent episode this past Wednesday. Revolution's series finale is scheduled to air on May 21.
  19. ABC has cancelled Trophy Wife after one season on the air. The freshman comedy premiered last September for a 22-episode run that will conclude next week. The show faltered in the ratings in its 9:30pm Tuesday time slot, where it aired following the just-renewed The Goldbergs, which drew significantly higher ratings.
  20. ABC has cancelled Suburgatory. The satirical comedy has been an average performer for the network over its three seasons. Though its most recent season had its episode order reduced to 13 and premiered midseason for the first time in its run. Suburgatory's series finale is set to air next Wednesday, May 14.
  21. NBC has cancelled Community, opting not to bring the show back for a sixth season. The news comes just one season after show creator Dan Harmon's return to the comedy. Harmon was brought back as showrunner in Season 5 after being ousted the season previous. The show aired a total of 97 episodes since its premiere in 2009. The series finale aired last month on April 17.
  22. NBC has renewed Hannibal for a third season. The Bryan Fuller series, which is concluding Season 2 later this month, has been a modest performer for the network on Friday nights. It will likely continue to air in the midseason as it has so far, with April and February premieres respectively. Though no details have been announced, another order of 13 episodes appears likely.
  23. NBC has cancelled Crisis after one season. Since its debut, the show has struggled with low ratings in its 10:00pm Sunday time slot. The action drama premiered in March for a 13-episode run. Eight of those episodes have aired thus far, leaving five remaining. The show's finale is currently scheduled for June 1.
  24. The CW has cancelled freshman series Star-Crossed after its first season. The sci-fi drama premiered this February for a 13-episode run, but low ratings failed to convince the network to pick the series up for another season. The series finale is scheduled to air this coming Monday, May 12.
  25. The CW has cancelled The Tomorrow People after its first season. The sci-fi drama aired a full 22-episodes, but its initially strong ratings fell throughout the course of the season. The show aired its finale this past Monday.
