Here Are the Survival Odds for Your Favorite Prime-Time TV Shows

With 38 programs in limbo, who will live to see another season?

Mark your calendar for Mediaweek, October 29-30 in New York City. We’ll unpack the biggest shifts shaping the future of media—from tv to retail media to tech—and how marketers can prep to stay ahead. Register with early-bird rates before sale ends!

With mere days to go before the annual rite of spring turns the broadcast TV business into a moneyed round of show-and-tell, the fate of dozens of legacy series remains up in the ether. Of the 85 scripted shows that have aired at least once since the season began, 38 remain in a sort of existential limbo. (For the non-mathletes among you, that’s 45 percent of the overall stash.)

And while ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox won’t show their hands until Upfront Week, we’ve figured out which of your favorite shows will live to see another sunrise and which ones are fated to become worm food.
