Good news for Middle fans hoping for a renewal. Although not official this pretty much guarantees a renewal and it's ratings are good enough to earn that renewal.
Of the established ABC series, Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, Once Upon a Time, Modern Family and The Goldbergs are fully expected to come back. The Middle also is looking good, with the cast led by Patricia Heaton locked in with new deals (co-star Charlie McDermott is in first position on CBS pilot Super Clyde but is expected to be part of The Middle in some way), as is Tim Allen Friday comedy Last Man Standing.
