ABC shares their upcoming 2018 – 2019 primetime lineup, and we’ve got the details, including previews of their EIGHT new series.

On May 15, Channing Dungey, president of ABC Entertainment, unveiled the network’s new lineup during Upfronts 2018 at Lincoln Center’s David Geffen Hall in New York City.
While I’m still in my feels about Scandal ending, that show surely ended on a highpoint! (If you haven’t already, make sure to take a look at my fave OMGGGGG moments from Scandal‘s seven seasons.) Similarly, I was also sad to see Once Upon a Time go, but they certainly paid homage to Oncers with that series finale.
In the 2018 – 2019 season, a total of eight new series have been announced, including the one-hour dramas A Million Little Things, The Fix, Grand Hotel, The Rookie, and Whiskey Cavalier, as well as half-hour comedies The Kids Are Alright, Schooled, and Single Parents. Our faves like Rachel Bilson, James Roday, Adewale Akinnouye-Agbaje, Scott Foley, Lauren Cohan, and Nathan Fillion will be back on our TV screens and we can’t wait!
