Does it mean that History Channel has a chance to pick it up since the miniseries originally aired there and that they were already successful with their scripted shows? How could the History Channel justify airing it? It's set in modern day.

Re: Upfronts 2013 Glad NBC passed on the modern 'Hatfields & McCoys', it had disaster written all over it. thompsoncory wrote: The script for "Sleepy Hollow" is A.W.F.U.L. I can't believe they picked it up.  Ah damn, hope it works better on-screen than on paper.

Re: Upfronts 2013 I wish ABC would announce SOMETHING - even the obvious renewals.

Re: Upfronts 2013 When will The CW try something different? Clearly the shows they go for aren't really working for the most part.

Re: Upfronts 2013 thompsoncory wrote: "Carrie Diaries" and "Nikita" have been renewed. So happy for "TCD"! Carrie was a huge shocker. Word is that Nikita's order is only for 6 (to 10) episodes? Do you have info on that? The Nikita renewal is no brainer for syndication $$$ though it will be fun to see it's ratings probably settle in a regular run of 0.2 and 0.1.

Re: Upfronts 2013 Another no-brainer: ABC has picked up Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to series.

Re: Upfronts 2013 Wow I hope that is true. They could team it up with the Following, and I guess it would be like that with about 15 episodes.
