ABC has been hush, hush about which of their current shows would be on their fall schedule next season with the new ones, but tonight they broke their silence. The best of their shows to get a renewal is The Goldbergs that will be back for season 2. The only other comedy to get the good news tonight is Modern Family. While only 2 of their sitcoms got the happy news today, 6 of their dramas will be resurrected on their lineup in a few months. They are Castle, Resurrection, Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, Once Upon a Time, Revenge and Agents of SHIELD. And did I mention The Goldbergs that is bringing families together will be back for a totally rad second season!
There are several shows that are still waiting to find out their fate and tomorrow we should know about the futures of Trophy Wife, The Middle, Suburgatory, Mixology, Super Fun Night, Nashville and Last Man Standing. I am assuming that Dancing with the Stars and Shark Tank will also find out tomorrow that they too will be back on the schedule come September.
Which shows are you most happy about and which ones are you worried about?
UPDATE: ABC also picked up The Middle. While the news was good for The Hecks, two of the other ABC shows’ casts took to Twitter to say more than “heck” because their sitcoms were cancelled. ABC is divorcing Trophy Wife and getting sober so it no longer needs Mixologoy.
UPDATE 2: ABC also cancelled The Neighbors. It would’ve been interesting to see what they would’ve done with a third season after the way they ended the season, but it felt like it could be a series finale too. Thank you to everyone who worked on that fabulous show.
UPDATE 3: ABC picked up Dancing with the Stars for a 19 run. Here’s to hoping they get Gibbler.
UPDATE 4: ABC is still swimming in the Shark Tank, laughing with America’s Funniest Videos and they gave another rose to The Bachelor.
UPDATE 5: ABC moves out of Suburgatory.
UPDATE 6: It won’t be a Super Fun Night for the cast of that show because they won’t be back for a second season.

If you are wrestling with something to watch tonight, then I highly recommend you check out The Goldbergs on ABC at 9p.
Return of the Jedi is finally coming out and Adam (Sean Giambrone) wants to be one of the first people to see it. Back in the ’80something, if you wanted to catch the first screening of a film, you had to camp out. So Adam asks his mom if he can do it and she says only if it his sister does it with him. Well Erica (Hayley Orrantia), doesn’t want to do it but does because Adam blackmails her. Now they are off to hang out with other Star Wars fans for a few days to see the third movie in the biggest franchise in movie history. When Adam goes to the bathroom, Erica’s friends walk by and invite her to hang with them. So she leaves the line and they lose their place and now he won’t get to see it until Sunday. So their relationship is deep doo doo and doesn’t look like they will ever reconcile. Will things get back to the way that they were? Or will Adam only have one sibling in his like?
When it comes to that other sibling, Barry (Troy Gentile), has been recruited to join the varsity wrestling team. Something he agrees to do because he thinks that jacket will get him the ladies. Only thing is that he needs a parents’ approval and his mom (Wendi McLendon-Covey) will never agree to that. So he asks his dad and Murray (Jeff Garlin) is more than willing to help him out because he was on the team when he was in high school. So Murray and Pops (George Segal) come with a great plan to hide the fact from his mom, only problem is that he is such a moron, he almost blows it on day one. Since it is Barry, she finds out about his secret and does the most embarrassing thing she has ever done to him during the show’s run so far. If you have been watching The Goldbergs since episode 1, then you know the sMother has done some horrifying things to her kids so this must be pretty heinous.
What is it? You just have to tune in to see it because you will be calling your mother on Sunday thanking her for not being a Beverly.
And believe me you don’t want to miss this episode because I love it so much, I’ve already seen it like 10 times. This episode will be on an endless loop on my DVR after tonight’s airing. I think my DVR might actually crash because I will be watching it so much. It is so rare to love an episode, let alone a show, as much as I do The Goldbergs, but it is worthy of not only my admiration but yours too.
So please tune in for one of the greatest sitcoms ever! And I am not just saying that because they actually showed the classic videogame Pitfall on it tonight. That is just another benefit of watching The Goldbergs, it helps you remember the best things about your childhood like it is today and not yesteryear.

Do the Truffle Shuffle cause The Goldbergs take on The Goonies tonight! |

The Goldbergs are finally back with all-new episode tonight at 9p on ABC and you don’t want to miss this episode that is a true treasure.
Adam (Sean Giambrone) like most boys in the ’80s (and since) are obsessed with the movie, The Goonies. He is so into it that he can’t stop watching it. One day, when his dad (Jeff Garlin) assigns his brother, his sister and him to clean the attic, Adam tells his siblings that he will be up to do it after he finishes watching the movie. Barry (Troy Gentile) and Erica (Hayley Orrantia) are upset with their little brother, so they come up with a plan to get back at him and it is Goonies related. They create a fake map to a treasure; knowing their little brother will want to find it and they are right. Adam gets his friends together and each one of them will play a different person from the film to help him find the treasure. What is the treasure? Like I am going to tell you, but I will tell you to watch this cute episode that will bring a huge smile to your face several times.
I sincerely forgot how happy this show makes me; but once I watched this episode, I quickly remembered. I’ve said this before and I will say it again, The Goldbergs is the best new sitcom of this century. Sorry to shows like Modern Family, How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory and New Girl, you ain’t got nothing on The Goldbergs! Television has been missing a good family sitcom since Everybody Loves Raymond went off the air, and The Goldbergs has filled that much needed void.
To quote Cyndi Lauper’s song from The Goonies to reference The Goldbergs, “It’s good enough for me, Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.” BTW I am also referencing The Goonies ‘r’ Good Enough because I can’t get it out of my head since I saw the episode.
BTW this is not the first time that the show’s creator, Adam F Goldberg, has taken on The Goonies, he also did it on his sitcom, Breaking In. If you haven’t that delightful episode or the show, you can watch it on Crackle for free. It is worth binge watching whether you have already seen it or this will be your first time. It different than The Goldbergs but just as brilliant and fun.

Would you eat George Segal’s meat? |

Wendi McLendon-Covey Tweeted this photo of her TV pops, George Segal, on the set of The Goldbergs, and it is so yummy that I just had to share it with you. Well that and to remind you that The Goldbergs is back on ABC tonight at 9p and you don’t want to miss the best new show of the season.
Then at 10p, ABC is debuting its new crime show Killer Women. Tricia Helfer plays Molly Parker, a Texas Ranger who always gets her man, or in the case of this show, her woman. On tonight’s season premiere a woman walks into a wedding and shoots the bride dead. Turns out the killer has connection to the groom, so they think that is why she did it. But Molly doesn’t think it is such an open and closed case, and she is right. Will she be able to prove this woman’s innocence before she is convicted of a crime she didn’t commit. Tune in to find out in this cop show that even women can enjoy tonight and for the next 7 Tuesdays at 10p on ABC.

Before Adam F Goldberg created a show called Breaking In, he was breaking into in showbiz in Trial and Error. How yummy was the 20 year old in that 1997 movie?
