Suburgatory And Revenge Get Full Season Orders From ABC, Happy Endings Gets Script Order

ABC has made the wise decision to give full-season orders to two of their most promising shows this fall. Comedy series Suburgatory has been given a full season order, as has drama series Revenge, which has become the ultimate guilty-pleasure obsession for yours truly this fall.

Suburgatory airs on Wednesday nights and stars Jane Levy and Jeremy Sisto as a father and daughter who move from the city to the suburbs and are trying to adjust to their new life. Revenge is a drama that stars Emily VanCamp as Emily Thorne, a woman who moves to the luxurious Hamptons for the summer and is secretly plotting to ruin the lives of the wealthy residents who were involved in conspiring against her father years ago. You can read our recap of last night's episode here.

Deadline posted the news, adding that in addition to full seasons for Revenge and Suburgatory, ABC has given a six-script order to Happy Endings. That’s not as good as a full-season pick-up but, at the very least, it shows ABC is considering moving forward with the comedy series, which is currently in its second season and slowly but surely getting into a (very funny) groove on the network. Hopefully ABC sticks it out with that one as Happy Endings only seems to be getting better with each episode.
