Lessons of the 2017-18 season: Shows that were surprisingly renewed last year were unsurprisingly canceled this year
In examining "the many losers (and few winners) of the TV season," which concluded on Wednesday, Kate Aurther points out that shows that shouldn't have been renewed a year ago were pretty much all axed this year. "Last year, Fox should not have renewed The Exorcist and The Last Man on Earth; ABC should not have renewed Quantico and Designated Survivor; CBS should have killed Superior Donuts; and NBC should have canceled Taken, Shades of Blue, and (haters, get back!) Timeless (the fate of which for Season 3 we still don't know — possibly because NBC executives are scared of its fans like I am)," says Aurthur. "Now, all of those shows (except for Timeless, as of now) are gone. Lessons learned, right? Wrong: I can see the future, and in the future, people will wonder why NBC renewed A.P. Bio and Good Girls, and ABC renewed For the People."
