Cougar Town
Maybe it's time to start preparing the #SaveCougarTown hashtag?
ABC released its midseason schedule Friday, but the Courteney Cox-starring comedy was conspicuously absent. Sources tell TVGuide.com that Cougar Town will still return in the spring, though an official premiere date has not yet been set.
