ABC Family Sets New Lineup, Cancels Kyle XY, Renews Greek
February 1st, 2009 | 2 Comments | Email | Share | TweetABC Family renewed college dramedy Greek for a third season and family drama Lincoln Heights for a fourth season with 10-episode pickups while canceling sci-fi mystery Kyle XY after three seasons.
Following the success of The Secret Life of the American Teenager, the network picked up three new female-oriented series, comedies Ruby and the Rockits and 10 Things I Hate About You and drama Perfect 10. All three received 10-episode orders. The network still hasn’t decided on the renewal of The Secret Life of the American Teenager, the order size still being determined.
Ruby and the Rockits, from ABC Studios, is a multicamera comedy starring Patrick Cassidy as a former teen idol who has chosen to lead a quiet life with his wife and two sons. But when his former Rockits bandmate and brother (David Cassidy) shows up unexpectedly with his newfound teenage daughter (Alexa Vega) in tow, the family’s life becomes anything but normal.
Based on the feature of the same name, 10 Things I Hate About You is a single-camera comedy about the Stratford sisters – the strong-willed Kat (Lindsey Shaw) and social butterfly Bianca (Meaghan Jette Martin). Carter Covington penned the pilot, which was directed by the film’s helmer, Gil Junger.
Set in the world of competitive gymnastics, Perfect 10 follows a group of teen Olympic hopefuls as they train and prepare for their day in the spotlight. The hourlong drama was created by Holly Sorensen, who is executive producing.

those new shows they greenlit sound stupid i can’t belive abc family got rid of kyle xy
for those dumb shows bring back kyle xy it deserved a better ending one more season.
I really hope they renew secret life of american teenager. I feel this show really hits home especially how teenagers are in this day and age. I am a mother of 2 girls one is a teenager. we watch this show together and basically she learns more and more after every episode. now all shows have to have that gretty drama and all the negativity. I am happy ABC family has a family show like this because it show boys and girls what happend when you do not take protection like you should with a little extra in it. I really hope they do renew it.
