    That means they will keep all comedy hours most likely and have only one other newbie as spackle. Pretty risky considering how badly it went for them this year. Should have kept Suburgatory as spackle again

    I am guessing Manhattan Love Story will be kept as a midseason replace. That show tested OK, unlike the other comedies which had good buzz, Pity as I like Analeigh Tipton and the concept of the comedy, I was rooting for it to be picked up thinking of it as an underdog.

    Wow, this is really something:
    This is a fairytale ending for Alonzo’s Cristela, which had been a true Cinderella story this season. It was sold to ABC last summer with penalty. But with several high-profile multi-camera sitcoms landing pilot orders at the network, including two from 20th TV – The Winklers starring Henry Winkler, and Kevin Hart’s Keep It Together – Cristela didn’t make the cut. However, 20th TV brass and 21 Laps/Adelstein, led by Becky Clements, took the $500,000 penalty, a fraction of what a normal pilot costs, and used it to shoot a presentation with ABC’s blessing (the network called it “proof of concept”). Cristela ended up filming a full-length pilot on the stage of Last Man Standing using that sitcom’s crew, led by director/co-exec producer John Pasquin, with two days of rehearsal and prep time, doing the blocking in a windowless room using paper plates and metal chairs. Cristela, originally not even budgeted to get a testing or a photo shoot, tested through the roof, with Alonzo, who has no previous acting experience, scoring higher than Allen, New Girl’s Zooey Deschanel and The Crazy Ones’ Robin Williams. What’s more, Cristela snagged the only multi-camera comedy pickup at ABC for 20th TV, edging The Winklers and Keep It Together.
