Have others been keeping an eye on which shows have been renewed?

I have been going to http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/the-renew-cancel-index/ (has some annoying pop-ups on occasion) to see which of my fave shows are coming back or have been told to hit the bricks. Most renewals/cancellations won't come until May, but a few have already been renewed/canceled.

Why cancel Harry's law"....It is a very good television show. Tikki May 2012 #6
It isn't getting high ratings. Kathy Bates is apparently really pissed off. Behind the Aegis May 2012 #7

Whitney is the worst show ever, but it gets renewed.
Prime Suspect canceled
Awake probably canceled
Harry's Law probably canceled
At least SVU is renewed.

CW cannot cancel Ringer- it's my only guilty pleasure. Have to see Siobhan get what's coming to her.

Oh, because it's actually something different than your normal TV drama. Got it.

I am really what will happen with "Ringer." It is possible they may do what they are doing with "Fringe" and renew a short season (13 episodes) in order to wrap things up.

The "Friday night" and "Sunday night" moves of established shows usually signals the network is trying to kill it off.

And it's the only show on NBC that nearly hits 10 million. Very sad for us here at my station. Harry's Law is a winner for us. The Demos are ancient - and that's all NBC cares about.

There is another show that is falling on similar fate on ABC - Body of Proof. That show constantly wins the 10p Tuesday time period in Households, but loses to either NBC (Parenthood - not Fashion Star) or CBS (Unforgettable) in the Demo (18-49). I hope Body of Proof sticks around - I like Dana Delaney and the show in general.
