2026 Renewal/Cancellation Scorecard: What's Coming Back? What's Already Canceled? What's On The Bubble?
TVLine's annual Broadcast Renewal Scorecard brings with it a glorious mix of hope, heartbreak and relief.
In the coming weeks and months, executives at ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC will make decisions about which shows are good to return for another season... and which will follow "Doctor Odyssey" to the big TV graveyard in the sky.
To help you monitor what's staying, what's going and what's tenuously riding the "bubble," we present you with an easy-to-browse list.
We'll be updating this future forecast regularly with the latest industry intel, so we strongly suggest you bookmark this list and check back for updates.
FYI: The scorecard does not include unscripted series or international acquisitions. (The CW, which is down to one last homegrown original — "All American," entering its final season — has been excluded.)
The eight levels in TVLine's annual renewal scorecard are as follows:
