TV Scorecard: What's renewed? What's canceled?

Nayar has inked a two-year deal with ABC Studios and will continue acting as executive producer, while also taking over the role of showrunner for the show's third season. (Revenge hasn't officially been renewed yet, but is expected to be in the coming weeks.)

Previously, Nayar worked as an executive producer on ABC's Body of Proof and CSI: Miami.
