Ratings Roundup for the Week of April 18, 2021

ABC had a quiet week last week. Still no announcements for renewals or cancellations, but that should be coming in the next week or so. More on that later. Home Economics, Rebel, and Big Sky all lost a tenth from the previous week. All three should be renewed, but don't be surprised if they are pushed off to the Spring schedule. Things are really not looking good for Mixed-ish. If it gets renewed, and that could be a big if, expect a final season announcement tacked on to that renewal. Black-ish is doing slightly better, but if one goes, it's likely both of them will. The Rookie gained a tenth, but its renewal is guaranteed, regardless. The same is true for A Million Little Things. Grey's Anatomy, Station 19, The Goldbergs, The Good Doctor, and The Conners, should all be safe for another season. Call Your Mother is likely cancelled. 
 

CBS has made most of its renewal decisions already. News of renewals for All Rise, SEAL Team, B Positive, and United States of Al should be coming soon. Clarice is likely done. No real movement ratings-wise of any shows last week. A fair mix of specials, reruns, and the Academy of Country Music Awards all helped the network eke out the last few new episodes it has to get through May sweeps with some respectable numbers. 

NBC has some decisions still to make. Manifest is in its third season and will be renewed. Law & Order: Organised Crime will be renewed. Young Rock has done well and Kenan has done well enough that both should get a second season. Debris has been holding at steady numbers, but those numbers are low. Chances are it will be cancelled. Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist and Good Girls are also likely done. 
 

FOX announced last week that The Moodys was cancelled, no real surprise. The Masked Singer, Game of Talents, 9-1-1 and 9-1-1 Lone Star are likely renewed. The Resident should get another season. Prodigal Son's future rests entirely on what the network has planned for the fall. From the numbers, it's most likely cancelled, but if there is a hole in the schedule, the show might squeak another season, but that's a faint hope at best. 
 

The CW has announced most of its renewals. Kung Fu will be renewed. Whose Line and Penn & Teller: Fool Us are also likely renewed. 
 

So when is Decision Day for your favorite shows? Upfronts are the week of May 16. This is when the five networks will present their Fall schedules to advertisers. Most networks will make a final blast of renewal news the week before upfronts. If there's no renewal news and your favorite show is not on the Fall schedule, that means it was quietly shuffled off to endless repeats in syndication.
