[Reality-TV-Fanatics] ABC Schedule

 

Courtesy of my friend Ryan Witalison:

 

No major changes really with ABC from last season, returning shows pretty much stayed where they were with the new shows coming in to replace the shows that didn't return. The Biggest change comes on Friday as they have dropped the genre experiment from last season to return to a Comedy hour. American Idol, For the People, Splitting Up Together, The Fix, Grand Hotel, Whiskey Cavalier, and Schooled will also air in the Midseason. Marvel's Agents of SHIELD was also renewed for a shorter 13 episode but it was made clear that they are not considering it the final season, in fact, they made it clear that they could continue the show for years this way. The Bad news for fans is they will have to wait over a year to see what happens next as the show will return after Avengers 4 comes out in May, thus they avoid the whole Thanos fall out.

While too early to predict I do feel The Rookie won't last the season, the 10 pm Tuesday slot is a death slot and shows are either canceled and pulled from the lineup or they finish out their order and than we har it's canceled months later.
