LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - For broadcast series still hoping for a renewal, the past week was rough sledding.

CBS' "Shark" and ABC's "Women's Murder Club" returned to post about a 2.0 rating among adults 18 to 49, joining low-rated outings by fellow "bubble shows" "Moonlight" (CBS), "Boston Legal" (ABC) and "Reaper" (The CW).

But with most scripted series struggling from a writers' strike ratings hangover, the networks seem inclined to give some of the lagging shows a second chance this fall.

Here's how things stand:

* "Men in Trees": Producers of ABC's drama were recently told the show will not return for a third season. Last year, the show scored a surprising early renewal, but in April it averaged only about a 1.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic.

* "Boston Legal": A recent episode of "Legal" hit a series low, but, then again, what show hasn't? Given a strong lead-in, "Legal" tends to hold a reliable number. It's also an Emmy darling. A likely pickup.

* "Reaper": The word on CW's cult-favorite supernatural comedy-drama has turned unexpectedly positive. Though recent episodes have pulled about a 1.1 rating, the CW needs a suitable Thursday night partner for "Supernatural" because next season is expected to be the last for "Smallville." Plus, after adding DVR use, "Reaper" ratings often climb more percentage points than any other series, and CW executives are fond of the show.

* "Shark": Another network might be inclined to give this drama another chance, but CBS sets a high ratings bar for pickups, and "Shark" has a tough time clearing it. Industry oddsmakers are pessimistic about a fall return.

[NikeGurl]

Ok...I guess that's good news. Any idea on when we will hear for sure?

[Shawna]

may 12 th at the Cw upfronts

[NikeGurl]

Well I'll be keeping my fingers crossed til then

[Shawna]

all the buzz is that we shouldnt worry but Yet i am

[Shawna]

er Ausiello: It's official! Reaper has been renewed. Multiple Reaper insiders confirm that the show is looking like a go for a second season. Per one source, Dawn Ostroff is leaning toward bringing it back for 13 episodes as a mid-season replacement.

Also read about it at the Hollywood Reporter (confirming that Reaper will be a midseason replacement for Smallville) and from Variety:

CW gives 'Reaper' another shot
Network orders 13 episodes of cult drama
By CYNTHIA LITTLETON
Variety May 12, 2008

"Reaper" has earned a reprieve.

CW net has given a 13-episode midseason renewal to its cult-fave drama about a slacker guy who's forced to work for the devil, thanks to a Faustian bargain made years ago by his parents. Frosh series from ABC Studios has a cadre of loyal fans but has otherwise struggled, ratings-wise.

Renewal decision went down to the wire, coming hours before CW's 2008-09 sked presentation in Gotham on Tuesday morning.

"Reaper" stars Bret Harrison, Tyler Labine, Missy Peregrym and Ray Wise as the Devil.

We did it everyone! The fans have spoken and Reaper lives! See y'all in season two!

But who knows

but the devil son deal is crazy

[gillian]

Yeah, if it's true that's seriously NUTS.

[Shawna]

i keep my ear to the ground:lol: bc its suicide if it Sock

[gillian]

The show needs Sock. He's basically what makes it so hilarious.

[Shawna]

Hes the reason why i watch

[NikeGurl]

I think that Sam's parents are demons....

[gillian]

Definitely seems likely after the way his Dad survived that...

[Shawna]

Idk wtf :lol: I love the show tho ,cant wait for the dvds

[nicnac]

saw an advertisment for next weeks show, the one were they find out sams the devils son but on the ad they say its the final epi, is that right??

[Shawna]

Finale'--the season ,new ones start in late october in the US

[Sparker]

oh man i love reaper!
sock kills me!
he is soooooo funny
and ben and the marriage
poor guy
lol
oh well he found the girl of his dreams in the end
:)
and totally agree that Sam's parents are demons!

[Dean's Baby 67]

Reaper kinda reminds me of a funny version of Supernatural :lol: I love the things they get into! Sock is so hilarious!

[*Andrea*]

Yea it kinda is, when does the new season start(exact date?)

[Dean's Baby 67]

We need to figure that out.

[Sparker]

lol yeah we do. I mean then we know when the other shows generally start.
although i heard somewhere one show comes back September 1st. i forget which one but that means that most of them will start to come back that week!

[NikeGurl]

I don't think Reaper will be back until January-ish. It's one of those mid-season shows. I'm wondering when Season 1 will be out on DVD. Gossip Girl will be out August 19th.

[Sparker]

really cause Reaper started when Gossip Girl did...so i think it will come back on then.

[NikeGurl]

Apparently Reaper will be out on DVD November 4th (http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Reaper-Season-1-Box-Art/10355)

[Sparker]

YAY that's exciting!
more DVDs i have to buy. gosh. lol

[Krysie]

[Sparker]

yup!! dude i can't wait for this show to come back on!

[Krysie]
