 The OC? The War at Home? What About Brian?
THE LOOP?!
Well... I think this is good, mainly because FOX and ABC are actually giving these shows a second chance to find better ratings. Let's face it, The OC and The War at Home are HARDLY ratings winners. What About Brian is barely a blip on the radar. And The Loop? I don't recall it doing well out of That 70s Show.
But, as I said, giving these shows a little more time to find an audience is good. It sucks when any shows are cancelled after a handful of weeks. I'm talking more about The Loop and Brian. I'm not sure how many chances The OC has been given. The War at Home is just barely a compatible series to air out of The Simpsons (ratings-wise).

Fox renewed The Loop?! The War at Home?!
Gross.
I'm shocked ABC is actually keeping What About Brian, maybe they're actually giving it a chance to possibly grow.

Yeah ABC surprised with Brian. I knew that that Mick Jagger sitcom thing would make it to the schedule

Most of the new shows sound awful, that might have played into why they renewed some shows that were not expected to be. As bad as they are they might be better than what is coming.

If they renew WHAT ABOUT BRIAN then it's stupid not to renew COMMANDER IN CHIEF, which got higher ratings and has much more promise. And they should bring back CRUMBS. It didn't have a chance to do bad enough for them to have a reason not to renew it. They need to finish airing it in the summer. And I hope CBS doesn't cancel COURTING ALEX.

Wow, The OC, The Loop, and What About Brian. Strange choices to stay the least.
All 3 won't make it past midseason though. What About Brian will be gone in the first few weeks like John Stamos' show(forgot the name. hah.)

the only reason I can see for keeping Brian is to place Grey's Anatomy right before it on Monday nights. It should get canned by February at the latest.
