Because of the recent cancellation of Last Man Standing (owned by 20th Century Fox TV) should fans of The Middle be afraid for that series's future as well? Because The Middle is owned by Warner Bros.Television, I fear ABC will just dump it after its season 9.
The cancellations of LMS and 2 Broke Girls last May shows us that outside studios' shows WILL get treated like crap no matter what; they will get themselves shafted in favor of shows that are owned by a network's in-house production studio, whether they are inferior to the outside-studio shows or not. It's a good thing Black-Ish isn't inferior to The Middle, and now they're both going to air on the same night next fall.
Is The Middle going to have a proper series finale when the time eventually comes, though, or will it be just fine without one?
