ABC on Thursday revealed the fates of all but one of its scripted series.

The network has renewed 9-1-1 (Season 9), Grey’s Anatomy (Season 22), The Rookie (Season 8), Shifting Gears (Season 2) and Will Trent (Season 4).

They all will join previously renewed fan-favorites Abbott Elementary (Season 5) and High Potential (Season 2), and the forthcoming 9-1-1: Nashville (starring Chris O’Donnell), on ABC’s 2025-26 primetime schedule.

That leaves just one bubble show: Doctor Odyssey. The Joshua Jackson drama has been averaging 4.9 million weekly viewers, demonstrating just 77% retention out of 9-1-1 — only slightly better than what Grey’s did in the 9 pm time slot last season. Sources tell TVLine that ABC remains engaged in creative conversations about a potential Season 2, and its fate will be decided at a later time.

Out of the six dramas that ABC has aired this TV season, Will Trent ranks No. 2 in audience, trailing only the aforementioned freshman hit High Potential, averaging a hair over 7 million weekly viewers (with Live+7 playback). 9-1-1 ranks third, The Rookie is fourth and Grey’s ranks last (behind Doctor Odyssey).

Shifting Gears, meanwhile, is ABC’s most-watched comedy (of three) thus far this TV season, and ranks No. 3 amongst all broadcast sitcoms, trailing only CBS’ Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage and Ghosts.

TVLine’s handy Renewal Scorecard has been updated with ABC’s five pickups. Which shows are you most excited to see return to the lineup next season?
