Some of your favorite shows, some shows you’ve never seen, and a few shows you haven’t watched in years will be back on ABC next season: The network has ordered renewals of Modern Family, The Middle, Grey’s Anatomy, Castle, and first-year series Once Upon a Time, Suburgatory, and Revenge. Variety opines that “none of the renewals is a surprise.”

According to Deadline, Happy Endings, Last Man Standing, and Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 are expected to get picked back up as well. Private Practice could get a thirteen-episode order, while Body of Proof and Shonda Rhimes’s Scandal may return. More Dancing With the Stars and Shark Tank (what is Shark Tank?) are forthcoming, as well. And lest ye forget, TBS scooped up the sorrowfully mistreated Cougar Town early Thursday.
