Moving decisively into the Post-Strike Era that began with today's Return of The Showrunners Parade on Hollywood Blvd., ABC has already picked up nine—nine!—of its series for next season, giving Desperate Housewives, Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Brothers & Sisters and Ugly Betty full orders, while giving 13 episode each to newer shows Private Practice, Pushing Daisies, Samantha Who? and Dirty Sexy Money. Curiously absent from this list: Cavemen, an indication that the network's groundbreaking sitcomfercial experiment may have finally come to an end. [THR]

Gasp! Pushing Daisies will be back! I feared it wouldn't be. Oh yay. There IS a Santa Claus.

Yet another case of art imitating life. Survival of the fittest you damn dirty apes!

I see an opening for a "Cop Rock" revival.

@heidiho: Yes, but can the great buzz machine creak back to life? Call in the NPR critics, stat!

@heidiho: I thought Dirty Sexy Money was done for, too. I'm craving more silly rich people antics.
