Not to be left out of the shocking news category, ABC dropped a couple of bombshells of its own over the past few days. The first was the announcement Last Man Standing was canceled. Contrary to conspiracy theories, the simple truth was the show was produced by FOX and aired on ABC; ABC was no longer willing to pay the license fee for programming not made in-house. This was why so many programs across all networks got the axe this year. The second bombshell was Quantico was renewed with a short episode order. The program was regularly at or near the bottom of the network's ratings chart, but it's made by ABC, so take from that what you like. ABC also managed the coup of taking American Idol away from FOX, the reality show will start on its new network next season.
