I thought FOX's Past Life was a goner (didn't expect it to return).

Thanks for pulling this together.

It was canned. They are burning off the remaining produced episodes.

[kstublen]

Thanks for posting the list.

I really can't wait for Futurama! I just finished re-watching the entire series, including the movies. Looking forward to new seasons of Leverage and Burn Notice as well. The only new shows from the list that I'm going to check out are Louie and The Good Guys.

[DJariya]

I'm looking forward to Persons Unknown. It's a 13 episode mini series.

The trailer looks fricking awesome.

KStublen: I would recommend Dark Blue on TNT in August. I think it's totally up your alley. I thought season 1 was alot of fun. The plots are standalone, so it shouldn't be hard to catch on. The final 2 episodes of season 1 are airing on May 4 and 5 at 2am if you want to set your DVR and try it.

Is the premiere of The Good Guys another Fox "sneak peak" ala Glee last year (we're only getting the pilot with the series premiering in the Fall)?

It looks good, I'm hoping it's not something Fox doesn't have any faith in and thus the summer-ish premiere date.

No, FOX specifically greenlighted The Good Guys as a Summer show. They want to program original shows year around.

No it appears to be running all summer. Season finale is scheduled for August 30th.

I think I'm done with Entourage and I'm definitely done with Weeds. The only two I'm really looking forward to are True Blood and Mad Men.

Any chance you could update the list and just mention which shows were Canceled and just having their episodes burned off (i.e. Past Life, Happy Town etc.). Might be helpful for those who don't remember the show and may or may not have a Series Recording already setup for it.
