I've expressed my surprise at Agent Carter's demise in the recent Marvel thread, so I've had time to come to terms with that.
As for Sleepy Hollow, I don't know how I feel. That was one of my wife's and my favorite shows these last few years. It wasn't Fargo or anything but it was good for what it was, even if they settled up all the major arcs at the end of season 2 and had to introduce a new villain and mythos for season 3. Once we got past the jarring transition of Pandora randomly showing up to catch the Horseman in her box as the opening scene of the season, it seemed to go along well. I particularly enjoyed the Crane-and-friends episode where he was trying to find how to get Abby back during her exile in the catacombs. Little did I know that Nicole Beharie was being pushed out behind the scenes. So little did I know, that when Abby died in the season finale it felt like some show-killing bullshit. I'm still pissed about it, and I'd be kinda glad if Sleepy Hollow gets the axe, no matter how interesting their setup for season 4 with Crane looking for the new Witness may be. Sleepy Hollow started off with an interesting enough premise that the whole reason I watched was because people on here were talking about it, and it got to the point where it senselessly killed off one of its best characters. We'll probably watch if it comes back, but if it doesn't, that might be for the best.
I'm both surprised and not surprised the Muppets only made it one season. Also, Castle needs to go because when I think about how long Fillion has been on that show, it makes me realize how long ago Firefly was, and then I feel old.
Person of Interest is a fav - but when it didn't come back until May - I knew we were done.
5.0 has been renewed, so no, it's back. I saw that for sure. I was also surprised at the NCIS: LA renewal.
Last Man Standing does worse than the Muppets (Which I think the Muppets is horrible and like Last Man standing - but whatever) But LMS is on Friday so I bet it lives.
We'll be back right after order has been restored here in the Omni Center.

Very much this. There's pretty much no chance that it will see any increase in ratings after being away for almost a whole year--this is a show that requires a knowledge of what's come before. But, man, what a great series it's been, and highly recommended for a binge watch or whatever to anyone who hasn't seen it.
Muppets was the one prime time show I could watch with my daughter. LMS is crap. Carter would have been better if they just went to Shield instead of fucking around with old Hollywood. No one gives a shit about Hollywood except Hollywood.
LMS pretty much only exists to push Allen's insane right wing racism. I can't think of any other redeeming value that it has.
I'm pretty sure Agent Carter will be back, as Hayley and ABC have said they'd be open to it between Hayley's other show. I can't imagine why it wouldn't as it a) gives a break during the AOS hiatus and b) can be used to sell the MCU.
As for Sleepy Hollow, I wasn't too fond of the second season but I thought the third season was much better, with the exception of killing of Abbie.
Castle should definitely go if Beckett isn't returning; Castle without Beckett is like, well, the ending to HIMYM.

I am also going to miss this show. Much like CSI:Miami before it, it was simplistic eye candy with some good action & scenery. They also got a good number of recognizable guest stars because lets face it, who is turning down a few paid days on Oahu ?

it's renewed. It has been renewed. Did I mention it was renewed?

Good to read that Review will have a final season. I love that show.

I am glad that Review will be coming back but also so so terrified because they put Forrest so far through the ringer last season I have no idea where they can go from here.
So does this open the door for Mockingbird and Hunter to return to AoS next season, or are they gone for budget reasons?
George Michael weighed his options. Maeby had chastised him for not taking risks, and what would be a bigger risk than perpetuating a lie about software just to ignite the passions of a woman? Of course it would be a lie, and since Maeby wouldn't know it was a lie, he wouldn't appear to be taking a risk. Perhaps the bigger risk was to tell his father he was lying, that he came up with it because he wanted his father to leave so he could enjoy what remained of his senior year. After all, he wondered, wouldn't that be the course of action taken by an overtly sexual man, a man who owns a pair of matador pants? He had not responded now for 41 seconds according to his unfailing internal clock, and it was time to come clean.
I've been an occasional-at-best P&R viewer. The finale was the first episode I've watched this season. And I loved every minute of it. Best finale ever? Not by a long shot. But it was one hell of a guilty pleasure.
