Oh, the horror. ABC has renewed alien series V.
Because of its rating boost in recent weeks, the show has been picked up for a 13-episode second season full of non-aliens and non-plots. (Sigh.) I guess an undressed alien princess really will get you results.

ABC wasn’t so gracious with its other shows, axing Better Off Ted, Scrubs, FlashForward, Romantically Challenged and brand new series Happy Town. Apparently, ABC is pulling it from the schedule for the next few weeks, and will fill its slot with a Primetime special on May 19 and a showing of Transformers on May 26. Transformers. Oh, that’s got to hurt.
