Series will have a new showrunner
Recently, ABC was in the verge of issuing renewal and cancellations among the TV series of the network.
"Quantico" is one of the most fortunate series whose fate has been sealed after ABC confirmed its season 3 installment. Further, the network will also reveal the different fall schedules on the upcoming Upfront presentation of advertisers.
As the Priyanka Chopra terrorism drama returns on TV, it is expected that it will have its new showrunner. Meanwhile, the production of the forthcoming series will still happen in New York. On the other hand, there are also rumors that the series writers' room will be transferred to Los Angeles but it will be confirmed by the production once a new showrunner will be in place.
"Quantico" has been a consistent breakout since it debuted in fall 2015 despite its dramatic drop of ratings in season two.
The series may have known to lose its momentum but it was able to make up due to its dense narrative and heavy serialization.
ABC picks up popular TV series
In line with the renewal news of "Quantico" season 3, some TV series were also fortunate to be renewed for another season. The network also renewed "Black-ish," "Agents of SHIELD," "Modern Family," "American Housewife," "Fresh of the Boat," "Speechless," "The Goldbergs," and "How to Get Away with Murder."
Meanwhile, some other shows were not fortunate to be given with another installment.
The network just canceled certain series like "The Real O'Neals," "Imaginary Mary," "The Catch," "Dr. Ken," "Last Man Standing," and "Secrets and Lies."
