Not Dead Yet is based on Alexandra Potter’s 2020 book Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up, and was created by David Windsor and Casey Johnson. The two serve as executive producers alongside Rodriguez, Wonderland Sound and Vision’s McG, Mary Viola and Corey Marsh. The series also stars Hannah Simone, Lauren Ash, Rick Glassman, Joshua Banday and Angela E. Gibbs.

Also among the shows renewed was The Conners. In 2018, a short-lived revival of Roseanne, the critically acclaimed series that aired from 1988 to 1997, returned to ABC with its original starring cast. The series revival was initially considered a success but was abruptly canceled after Roseanne Barr came under fire for a controversial tweet about President Barack Obama’s senior adviser Jarrett. John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Lecy Goranson, and Michael Fishman returned to ABC later that year for The Conners, which followed the family after the family matriarch’s death. Fishman exited the series after its fourth season, but the remaining core cast is still on board and returning for the upcoming season.

The Conners was renewed for 13 episodes with an option for 9 more. Werner Entertainment produces the sitcom.

Other ABC Renewals and Cancelations

The Conners and Not Dead Yet join several renewals made by ABC, including scripted series like Abbott Elementary, Grey’s Anatomy, Station 19, Will Trent, The Rookie and The Good Doctor, and unscripted series like America’s Funniest Home Videos (which returns for its 34th season!), The Bachelor, Bachelor in Paradise, American Idol, Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, Celebrity Jeopardy! and Shark Tank. Fans of Home Economics and The Rookie: Feds still await for news regarding the future of those series.

Last week, ABC canceled three of its dramas: David E. Kelley’s Big Sky, the Hilary Swank-led Alaska Daily, and the thriller The Company You Keep, which starred Milo Ventimiglia as a con man who falls for a CIA agent. Alaska Daily and The Company You Keep each aired for one season, while Big Sky’s cancelation follows its third season. While viewership numbers for the latter’s first season were high, ratings dwindled during its second and third seasons.

Ventimiglia and Swank won’t be offscreen for too long as they both have projects currently in the works. Ventimiglia is next set to appear in the action thriller Land of Bad, opposite Russell Crowe and Liam Hemsworth, while Swank is set to star in three upcoming films: Ordinary Angels, Mother’s Milk, and N.A.R.
