We've set our clocks ahead an hour, but which shows will be springing forward with us, and which ones will we have to leave behind? CBS fans got plenty of good news in March; the network renewed new drama series Tracker and NCIS: Sydney for second seasons, returning drama Fire Country for a third season, and comedy Ghosts for a fourth season. NBC wasn't to be outdone, handing out new seasons for Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., and Chicago Med.
Meanwhile, FX's Emmy-winning Hulu series The Bear is reportedly coming back for a fourth season, which is expected to film back to back with Season 3. Hallmark's The Way Home has been renewed for Season 3. Prime Video's Upload has been renewed for a fourth and final season, and Netflix's live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender will return for Seasons 2 and 3, with the plan being that the third season will be the last.
As for those shows that won't be seeing April, first up was Netflix's The Brothers Sun, which won't return for Season 2. They really canceled a show starring Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh during Oscars month! Pete Davidson later bowed out of more Bupkis, and just before we turned the pages of our calendars, Hulu drew a chalk outline for the murder mystery Death and Other Details.
Check out all the TV shows that were renewed or canceled in March below.
