CBS Central CW Central ll TV Scorecard: Which Shows Are Returning? Which Aren't? Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory), Ali Larter (Heroes) and Eliza Dushku (Dollhouse) With the networks poised to begin unveiling their plans for the 2009-10 TV season, we thought it time to begin keeping tabs on exactly which shows have earned a pick-up, which have already gotten the hook, and which are still in a state of limbo. We're focusing on the major broadcast networks, to keep things simple.
The Not Yet Renewed category includes some no-brainers — yeah, as if CBS would snuff any of its CSIs! — but until each network announces their double-secret, official prime-time plan, each of those shows shall remain put, before being assigned a different fate.
The list of series awaiting renewal breaks down each show's outlook for earning a spot on its network's line-up — GOOD, FAIR or POOR, based on ratings performance, the latest buzz and other considerations (such as Jay Leno claiming five NBC prime-time hours for himself). Those designations can change daily (or even hourly) throughout the coming weeks, depending on new intel.
Check back often — and follow TV Guide on Twitter — for renewal/cancellation updates as they happen.
