"Saturday Night College Football" also returns.
"Our passion for great storytelling is at the core of everything we do," said McPherson. "Finding and supporting writers, directors, producers and actors who share that passion is critical to our success. Our shows are the product of these collaborations, and we are thrilled to add 10 new series to our schedule next year."
For the 2009-10 TV season, ABC claims five of the top 15 highest-rated TV series in Adults 18-49 with "Grey's Anatomy," "Lost," "Desperate Housewives," "Dancing with the Stars" and "The Bachelor," including two of the top three scripted programs.
