So Glee which continues to get worse and worse as the season progresses has been renewed for two seasons, while Smash which continues to get better as its season progresses, has been unofficially cancelled?

Bewildering. I'll probably stop watching Glee after this season. It's become unwatchable.

For more on what "broadcast network" tv shows are being renewed and what one's are being cancelled to date? Go here:

Pretty much all the flist's favorites are being renewed or are sure bets as far as I can tell.

Didn't know that about Patrick Stewart - although it makes sense and at the time, I seriously didn't expect it to make it more than 3 seasons, after all the original hadn't.

It is bewildering that Supernatural of all things is in its 9th season.
Non-serial prime time series actually can last several seasons - such as NCIS, CSI, etc. Although that admittedly does not explain Supernatural or Glee for that matter.

I remember worrying each year about Buffy's renewal and Angel's - there were always thisclose to being cancelled. The good ole days.

Now we have two extremes - tv shows who are lucky to make it to 13 episodes let alone 22 without being prematurely yanked (Firefly, Caprica, Last Resort, Red Widow, Smash, Dollhouse, Zero Hour, 666 Park Avenue...Lone Star), and tv shows that seemingly last forever...with no end in sight. (see Grey's Anatomy, Supernatural, HIMYM, Two and a Half Men, CSI, Bones, NCIS, and annoyingly the Bachelor (sigh why? why can't it go away? whyyyy??) ).
