It?s impressive when a first year drama gets a super early renewal. Man I can?t wait for Monday so that new episodes can start again. There were also hints dropped at the winter press tour that NBC may have asked ?Heroes? creator Tim Kring to do a spin-off of the show.

Other shows also renewed: ?My Name is Earl,? Survivor,? Rachel Ray?s Show (renewed until 2010), and ?Ugly Betty.?

Also word on the street is that ?Scrubs? will come back for a final season. If for some reason NBC decides not to renew it, Touchstone (owners of the show and ABC) will bring it to ABC. The only thing up in air is whether Zach Braff who?s contract runs out.
