EW has listed its yearly "Renewal Scorecard" for television and fanboy favorite "Human Target" is stuck in limbo. The labeling is pretty straight forward, so here are some shows that may or may not be around for another season:

ABC
FlashForward: Could go either way
V: Could go either way

FOX
24: Could go either way
Dollhouse: Already canceled
Fringe: A safe bet
Human Target: Could go either way
Lie to Me: A safe bet

NBC
Chuck: A safe bet
Heroes: Could go either way

CW
Supernatural: A sure thing
Smallville: A sure thing



ecksmanfan: I only included shows that fit the "theme" of CBM, for a complete list, check the link below.

As for the shows, I hate to see Human Target go. I think they've done a great job with it and have enjoyed watching it. The same can be said for Dollhouse. Heroes...cancel it. It's gone way past its prime and either needs a MAJOR overhaul or just end it.

I like Human Target okay. It still wouldnt suprise me to see it get cancelled. Thats par for the course with FOX.

LEEE's gonna lay a brick.

@SHHH- Pretty much all the shows you'd expect to get renewed, are. The CSI and Law & Order Shows, Family Guy, et al. There were one or two surprises, like 24.

It'd be a shame if this show got cancelled. I can only hope for the best

24 is only on the bubble cause of contracts etc.....not ratings. but they'll make room for CSI: OMOHA and LAW and ORDER: ANIMAL CONTROL.

I was hoping to see CSI: Backwoods Mississippi this season. Oh well, maybe next year.

I love how Caruso has another pair of sunglasses underneath.

What a fkn doorknob.

Flashforward has to stay long enough for me to find out who suspect zero is.

I hate to say "I figured that would happen", but "I figured that would end up happening." I keep watching, but each week disappoints me. The last episode was the stereotypical corrupt cops and bad guy has to turn over evidence to take them down" theme....okay...and they took another plot twist in the show from a Leverage episode. It's just not doing it for me. Sorry Lee. Maybe there's hope and the show will get better and make the cut. I want to see it succeed, but based on what I have seen so far, the list is probably spot on with this one.

Damn, I havent even started watching this yet!

It would be a pity to lose FlashForward but I'm glad that Supernatural, Chuck and Lie To Me are all ok! I dont really care about 24 anymore...its been going downhill since the end of season 5!

Guys, check out my VENOM/CARNAGE Fan Cast! Just click the link!!! :)

I didn't even start watching, it's cancellation was destined before it even aired. Mark Valley is cool, but the filming style and lackluster special effects are not how Fox operates.

Is "Safe Bet" referring to being renewed or canceled? I don't like that Fringe is "borrowing" so heavily from "X-Files" for their filler episodes, but their arc episodes are top notch.

"Flash Forward" is a great show, I can't wait to find out what happens, if people don't care anymore it is because of ABCs week year long hiatus.

"Flash Forward" and "Fringe" make up my Sci-Fi Thursday lineup.

What the hell V got high ratings but ABC does not seem to want to give it a chance.

Magicfingers - 2/16/2010, 8:56 PM
NOOO! How come these networks always cancel a show once I start to get into them (eg. Knight Rider... SHUT UP!).
Human Target is one of the few shows on this season that I try my hardest not to miss.
@teabag, ecksmanfan, & superdog- LMFAO!!! LOVE those CSI comics. "CSI: OMOHA and LAW and ORDER: ANIMAL CONTROL." OMG that made laugh so hard I started to cry.

if Smallville and Supernatural get cancelled, does that mean the CW wants to be a teenage drama channel full with MORE bad programming? then the channel might get canceled!

peterparker420 - 2/16/2010, 11:15 PM
V is an AWESOME show!..and how
"could it go either way" It starts AGAIN
on MARCH 30th! SO I think it got picked up for
another season, If you meant depending on
THI years rating them I understand what you mean!
ecksmanfan
ecksmanfan - 2/17/2010, 12:14 AM
I just went off what the article said. I know that V drew excellent ratings initially but went downhill rather quickly.

i wouldn't be surprised, i thought human target was pretty bad. which sucks, because i was excited for it.

Damn it. I'm enjoying Human Target but that should have been my first indication that it might not last. And of course V and Flash Forward are questionable they haven't been on TV in ages and V had what 4 episodes???? I feel like if thay fail that's more the networks fault than anything!
