  • See ABC’s TV Show Cancellations and New Fall Lineup

    MuppetsFor ABC, it’s all about staying the course.

    At its TV upfront presentation to advertisers today, the network unveiled a fall schedule that is mostly unchanged from its current one. The handful of new shows that it ordered will just plug into slots where canceled series used to be.

    Those canceled shows are: “Cristela,” “Forever,” “Resurrection,” “Revenge,” “Selfie,” and “The Taste.”

    For the 2015-2016 TV season, ABC’s new dramas are: the FBI thriller “Quantico,” which will take the Tuesday slot occupied by “Forever”; the soapy “Oil”; and biblical saga “Of Kings and Prophets.” “The Catch,” another Shondaland production, will likely fill in when “How to Get Away With Murder” takes a midseason break.

    As for comedies, “The Muppets” return to primetime, along with a reboot of “Uncle Buck.” Ken Jeong’s “Dr. Ken” takes over the Friday night slot left open by “Cristela.”
