Cancellation League Update

Hello, everybody! Did you know that we currently have 21 contestants who have chosen 35 shows? Speaking of that:

Patrick and helent, please report to me ASAP. I made a mistake in allowing you to have Criminal Minds on your ballots. It's not on the fall schedule. You are locked in for the show if/when it comes at mid-season, but please chose another fall premiere/return. If you'd like a show whose cancellation has been pre-announced, the following are available:


How to Get Away With Murder -- two openings left
Madam Secretary -- two openings left
The Good Place -- one opening left

Everyone's ballots reflect most if not all of the preliminary points. Please let me know if there's something I missed or you'd like to appeal a ruling. I will watch all the promos as soon as possible and check Metacritic for scores.

The following newcomers are not on anyone's ballot: Mixed-ish and Batwoman. Please remember that if they aren't chosen, they are eligible to become kitty shows.

Contestants are still welcome, although they won't have early bird privileges.
