The multicamera trend could be seen in today's cancellation (https://twitter.com/Snoodit/status/994683611562496000) of single-camera comedies The Last Man on Earth, The Mick and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. "This upfront season, the Big Four broadcast networks are reinvesting in multicamera comedies a year after a wave of cancellations that left only a handful on the air," says Lesley Goldberg. "The news follows a pilot season that saw the genre explode, jumping to 16 orders compared with seven a year ago, with many expected to get the series pickup call. By the end of upfronts 2017, ABC, NBC and CBS had collectively ordered only four multicamera comedies to series. This year's tally, after only a handful of comedy pickups, has already matched that number with more expected."
