It’s that time of year again: This week kicked off the 2017 broadcast upfronts, in which NBC, Fox, ABC, CBS and CW officially announce their new fall schedules. An antiquated practice in the age of streaming and year-round premiere dates? Perhaps — but major advertising dollars are still up for grabs.
Which shows will stay and which ones are gone for good? Many announcements have already been made, but there are plenty of shows in limbo. Here’s what we know so far from the major broadcast networks. And even though cable and streaming systems operate on their own schedules, we included the current status of some fan-favorite shows at the bottom:
