So, does this mean that the Good Wife is the only show getting cancelled?
I wonder why some shows get 2 hours for their season finale and others don't.

At least it looks like HF-0 gets a 4th season!

They're listing H5-0 as "a safe bet" right now which is a step below "a sure thing" (which is a step below "officially renewed"). I don't think I've seen anything official regarding its renewal yet.

... and got the cart before the horse, so to speak, because I thought it was just more than it really is.

I wish they would give all the shows longer than an hour for their season finales. They just have too much to cram into their regular time slot.

Wonderful news... I can't wait until Season 4!
