Television is a cutthroat business. Now that Hollywood has transitioned from pilot season to a year-round process for streaming networks, they’ve had to ax shows from the air after just one or two seasons. 2026 has already seen a handful of fan-favorite TV series — new and long-running productions — get cancelled. But luckily, others have been renewed!
From beloved medical dramas like the Chicago series to the Emmy Award-winning Abbott Elementary, it’s clear that some shows will survive.
Below, Hollywood Life has rounded up the list of TV shows that were renewed this year.
The Paper
The Paper has officially been renewed for Season 2 at Peacock. The mockumentary comedy, created by The Office veteran Greg Daniels and set inside a struggling Midwestern newspaper, received an early renewal before its first season even premiered in September 2025.
