ABC Renews 'Americas Funniest Home Videos' For Some Inexplicable Reason - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

ABC is picking up this morning where it left off last night. After renewing reality series Dancing With The Stars, The Bachelor and Shark Tank last night, this morning the network continued with the pickups of two other long-running reality series, America’s Funniest Home Videos and Wife Swap. The 13-epsisode order to Wife Swap includes both regular and Celebrity Wife Swap episodes. Now in its 22th season, AFHV has been a solid anchor for ABC on Sunday, providing lead-in support to breakout hit Once Upon A Time. Last Sunday, it shot up 33% week-to-week to a 2.0/7 demo rating to dominate the 7 PM hour and rank higher than any series on NBC that night. Wife Swap has been on ABC since 2004 and introduced a celebrity version earlier this season.

Because it does well. 2.0 18-49 rating at 7pm is excellent, that beats 60 Minutes easily. Once NFL is over, it is #1 at 7pm. So your title makes no sense because that isn't what Deadline wrote.
