SitcomsOnline Digest: Pair of Popular Broadcast Sitcoms Renewed for Third Season; Malcolm in the Middle Movie in the Works?

 Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! It's a busy week this week (both with new series and news), and we're hearing news about renewals for two popular broadcast network comedies, news about a possible Malcolm in the Middle movie, and more. Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

  • Ghosts has been cleared for a third season on CBS. (Variety)
  • Another unsurprising renewal this week is one for a third season of Abbott Elementary. (Deadline)
  • Frankie Muniz announced this week that he is now a full-time NASCAR driver (that wasn't quite big enough to have it's own story, but more on that here), but he may need to take some time off because there may be a Malcolm in the Middle movie on the way. (Entertainment Weekly)
  • Uncoupled won't get a second season on Netflix. (Hollywood Reporter)
  • Carole Cook, a Lucille Ball protege who had her own career that never quite ended, has died at age 98. (Deadline)
  • Even though they have been actively removing content and cheapening the product, HBO Max has decided to raise the cost of a subscription effective immediately. (Variety)
  • All in the Family is getting a new home at MeTV starting in February. (SitcomsOnline)

WEEKLY PLANNER (JANUARY 14 - JANUARY 20)

  • The Night Court reboot, which we hope is as good as the original, debuts with two episodes on Tuesday night on NBC.
  • That '90s Show debuts Thursday on Netflix.
  • Wednesday brings a new season of grown-ish to Freeform.
  • CBS Monday night comedies Bob ♥ Abishola and The Neighborhood return Monday night for new episodes.
  • Decades has a binge of Family this weekend.
