Overall, and I have to say this begrudgingly because ABC axed Happy Endings, but they have the Fall 2013 line-up for so far. Most of their new programming looks promising, and will do well because of fan favorites. I still am baffled (pissed off) that ABC kept The Neighbors and let go of Happy Endings. With that said ABC has kept most of their shows on the same night, smart move. Moving shows around can be jarring. This network has done well with their shows where they are. While Sundays are difficult for Once and Revenge the shows have massive followings, so changing them to change them makes no sense.
One of the most interesting things about this line-up is the way Tuesday is brand new! ABC has started off wisely with Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, which will probably be one of the highest rated shows of the season. Putting two comedies on after this, which may not get huge numbers was smart! Well played ABC.
The mid-season replacements are the returning comedy Suburgatory and the new comedy Mixology,The dramas are all and they are Killer Women, Mind Games, and Ressurection.
