Fall TV cheat sheet: What's in? What's out?
Go ahead and bookmark this page now, because over the next few weeks, as the networks begin finalizing their fall schedules (starting with NBC on Monday), you're going to want to come back often as I update this list of the shows that are likeliest -- and unlikeliest -- to be renewed. (If you can't wait for the page to refresh, you can stalk me on Twitter.) Oh, and don't bother looking on this chart for, like, Dateline or any show with the name Howie in its title; I left off the ones that bore us.
