ABC Solidifies Its Fall Drama Schedule

ABC has solidified their final fall schedule, as reported by The Hollywood ReporterThe network announced the official premiere dates for several of their scripted dramas this November, including Grey’s Anatomy. 

ABC’s schedule is set to stay more or less the same as what was previously announced, with one exception. Though it was revealed that the Cobie Smulders (How I Met Your Mother, Avengers) led series Stumptown would be renewed for a second season, its cancellation was just announced due to the inability to make its planned launch.
