The list is missing my faves, The secret life of the american teenager, 10 things I hate about you, ruby and the rockits! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.191.77.84 (talk) 22:24, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
ABC is also the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the Australian equivalent of the BBC. It could also be the title of other broadcasting compaies around the world. We need to avoid the already hefty America-centrism of the wikpedia.
Here, here. The world is not contained within the USA.
Secondly, should not List of ABC shows be merged with this article?

Just like every other List of programs page (CBS, FOX, NBC), this page is not to have an updated weekly guide per WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a directory. Per #3 of this policy says that Wikipedia is not a TV/Radio Guide. I have bolded what I refer to: For example, an article on a radio station generally should not list upcoming events, current promotions, phone numbers, schedules, programme lists, etc. The midseason schedule that does not have to be updated constantly is OK: although mention of major events or promotions may be acceptable. Please do not re-add the weekly schedule. -- Wikipedical 18:10, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
I have removed the weekly schedule -- AGAIN -- as it violates WP:NOT. Wikipedia is NOT a TV Guide. If posters continue to readd it, I will suggest this article go to AfD, for said violations. --Mhking 00:55, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

With primetime shows that are only on once a week, if they are scheduled to air anytime within the next 2 weeks of the current day (since that's the timeframe that all of the major listings sites use) then they should be included on the list, since you can see the date when they're gonna air.
Anything after 2 weeks, then it's fair to hold off, especially if it's a brand new show.
With daily programs...I'll give you holding off putting one on the list if it's replacing another (like when The Revolution replaced One Life to Live) until it ends it's run.
But with a weekly show, since primetime schedules can change on a dime, if a show is on the listed schedule, it should count on the currently airing list.
I think that's fair.
Vjmlhds 03:27, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
I think we can work together here...primetime shows within 2 weeks go on the "current list", beyond that (especially if it's a new show) goes in the "upcoming list". And we wait until a show has aired it's advertised finale before removing it from the list.
Daily shows--we wait till one expires before putting in it's replacement.
Good enough for me.
Vjmlhds 13:49, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Look again at my last post...I said we wait until a show's finale has aired before we remove it. That goes for primetime or day time.
Vjmlhds 14:23, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Yes, Missing has been cancelled.
But it still has one more episode to air on the 17th. So let it air, and after the final credits, then it can go bye-bye from the list.
Vjmlhds 04:02, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
I wanted to hear from you guys about two specific topics. One concerns exclusively the List of programs broadcast by American Broadcasting Company article. The other concerns all three articles: List of programs broadcast by American Broadcasting Company, List of programs broadcast by CBS and List of programs broadcast by NBC.
1) I was possibly consider removing Litton's Weekend Adventure from the List of programs broadcast by American Broadcasting Company article. The reason is that although this block runs exclusively on ABC local stations, it technically isn't a ABC network block (unlike NBC's Qubo and CBS's Cookie Jar TV).
2) If a primetime show has aired its final episode but is still airing reruns, should that show remain on the said article or be removed? Personally, I think it should logically stay on the article because that show is still airing on the said network even if it has expired all new episodes. NBC currently is running 1980s episodes of Babar on Saturday morning and nobody ever considered to take that show off the list. Yet, when it's a primetime show, it is automatically deleted once it has aired its final episode with total disregard about the reruns that are still airing. I don't think it makes sense that it's okay for a Saturday morning show that airs reruns to stay on the list but not for a primetime show.
Note that I don't mind the status quo for either topic. But I just want to hear what you guys think to see if some changes should be implemented for one or both topics. Thank you. Farine (talk) 05:44, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Vjmlhds 06:10, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
Well if you really want my opinion, my answer to #2 is simply no, on the basis that once a primetime show has aired its final original episode, it no longer has any reason to count as a primetime show. If the same network airs a cancelled program as part of a programming block that airs outside of primetime hours, that's different. If you would like additional input from me, let me know, but for now I need to leave for work before I'm late... Davejohnsan (talk) 16:10, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
Davejohnsan, apparently you are opposed to the original consensus that what reached between me and Vjmlhds at 01:16 on 30 June 2012. That's perfectly okay. However, you have not proposed any alternative suggestion. Do you have any suggestions or are we gonna go with the original consensus that was planned between me and Vjmlhds on Friday? Farine (talk) 05:50, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
Just a little reminder:
Last Resort and 666 Park Avenue have both been cancelled, but as long as they're playing out the string, they stay on the board.
Vjmlhds 17:15, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
I'm not sure whether to add The Pinkertons to this list, but I know it is airing on select stations nationally, and there is no official page for it.--JeSuisFame (talk) 18:56, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
Promoting content that has not appeared on the station is WP:UNDUE weight as well as being non encyclopedic and purely promotional in nature and needs to be removed.-- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 14:01, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Tell me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't Scrubs be in the comedy-drama section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mike Weber02 (talk • contribs) 04:24, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
Soap operas are their own genre category of show. They are not primetime dramas. That is why they are placed in their own category on articles like this (and equivalent articles for other networks). They are listed in their own category for both current and former programming, including in this article. -AnonWikiEditor (talk) 05:36, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
If it is believed this long running special has been canceled, then please provide the source(s) stating as such. Otherwise it should not be removed (and it should never be completely removed anyway - even if it was canceled, it should be moved to the former programs section further down the page, not removed from the page entirely). -AnonWikiEditor (talk) 10:29, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
