ABC Fall 2010-2011 Rating Rankings: Now real change in top 3 shows?

ABC canceled 50% of it’s scripted shows. With reality hits like Wipe Out and Dancing with the Stars, the top 3 scripted shows on ABC, doesn’t really change at all. Modern Family, Grey’s Anatomy and Desperate Housewives remain on top of the food chain.

Modern Family had a season average of 4.8, Grey's Anatomy second with a season average of 4.3, while Desperate Housewives rounds up the top 3 with a 3.8. Cougar Town and Castle followed with a 3.1 and 3.0 respectivly

Body Of Proof is ABC’s Rookie of the Year, while ABC’s Rookie comedy of the year, “Mr. Sunshine”, won’t be back next season. NBC may be getting a lot of crap, but ABC also canceled ALL their now shows with exception of Body of Proof, who outperformed some of their veteran shows and Happy Endings, who battled through and managed to overcome the odds.

Should be interesting to note that “Mr. Sunshine” is one of this season’s top 10 ranked new shows this season, while Happy Endings barely cracked into the top 20.

Either way, here is a complete ranking of ABC’s scripted shows: (New shows in BOLD and canceled shows in yellow)
