I know someone who had an audition for The Chase last weekend, so if they're already taping that's a very quick turnaround from casting for a show that only needs 36-ish(?) contestants per season. I might have expected another week or two more for people to book their travel and accommodations, at a minimum.
I take that back, they may not be taping just yet, but parts of the production are underway at least, given all the news coverage about the writers striking.

Per Deadline, ABC has moved the returns of PYL and Pyramid up to May 26th, and pushed Card Sharks back a week to June 16th. No reason is given in the article.

The Card Sharks move is probably because ABC is airing the final two episodes of the season, if not the series (it has not been renewed yet), of A Million Little Things on 6/9.

Over on Twitter, Chad Mosher revealed a new bonus space in PYL.

May not be for the summer, but Supermarket Sweep and Celebrity Wheel of Fortune have been renewed...

Considering all the reality shows ABC  renewed today,  it is probably bad news for Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

Noticeably absent from the list of shows renewed so far - The Bachelor.

They're probably waiting to see what happens with Bachelor host Chris Harrison.

Such as what, exactly? He didn’t commit a crime.

ABC just picked up A Million Little Things for a second season, which puts the question, "Then why bother with airing the last two episodes back-to-back?" back on the table.

He stepped away from the show due to a controversy involving one of the Bachelors having a racist past.
"I just wanna give a shoutout to my homies in their late-30s who are watching this on Paramount+ right now, cause they couldn't stay up late enough to watch it live!"

Now celebrating his 21st season on GSF!

  Crime Scene Kitchen is on Fox, so maybe too much McHale?
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.
