Orphaned references in 2017–18 United States network television schedule

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 2017–18 United States network television schedule's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "CBS Renewals":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 04:56, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

The 2017 reboot of Charmed cannot be added without a reliable source.

Agents of SHIELD

A number of editors have labeled/relabeled the time in the season when this show will run (so far late fall, mid-season and now winter, a clear indication editors are guessing at when it will run) because one editor insists on putting it back in the table after two or more reverts. I've checked a number of sources, all of which say it will run later in the season, with no definite start date or time in the season. This season, that's true of a number of shows; CBS announced today it is holding Elementary and Code Black, among others, for later in the season; NBC did the same with Timeless, an increasingly common practice (and that's just the ones I can recall off the top of my head). Proffered sources say:

"Returnees “Agents of SHIELD” and “Quantico” are also on deck for later in the season, along with a host of new series..." [1]

"S.H.I.E.L.D., meanwhile, will take over the Fridays-at-9 time slot once Inhumans wraps its eight-episode run (and ABC confirms it has received a full 22-episode order.)" [2]

Neither is specific about when that will be. Once ABC announces its return date, we can add it to the table. Until then, it should remain out, along with all the other shows waiting for later premiere dates. --Drmargi (talk) 17:19, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

The difference with the examples you have mentioned (Elementary, Code Black, Quantico, etc.) is that none have been given timeslots in midseason, which SHIELD has by multiple sources [3] [4] indicating that SHIELD "will take over the Fridays-at-9 time slot once Inhumans wraps its eight-episode run". Since it's not confirmed by a RS that it will start in the fall, winter should be used. How is this different from Chicago Med?- Brojam (talk)

It has a time slot, yes, but not a return date. Do you have a reliable source that it will be winter versus late fall? No. You can speculate when that return date might be by estimating the date of the first episode based on the calendar for the eight episodes of Inhumans, assume that ABC won't pre-empt one or more weeks, assume ABC won't pull it early, and assume that ABC will return SHIELD the week after Inhumans finishes (versus January, after the holiday shows), etc. but that's purely WP:OR. The difference between that, and Chicago Med, or any of the shows coming back after football, is we have a return date, and they appear on the announced network schedule. That's not the case with Agents of SHIELD. And really, what's the rush? It's coming back. We know that. When we have a date, we add it to the table and label the time of the season accurately, not guess at it. That's always been the practice. --Drmargi (talk) 18:21, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Chicago Med does not have a return date. All it is says is that it will also return in midseason, which could mean November or as late as January. - Brojam (talk) 18:40, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

Question/Clarification on first cancellation of the season

Me, Myself, and I is shown as the first cancellation of the season after CBS announced it on 11/2. However, Ten Days In The Valley was pulled from the lineup on ABC October 27th. The only difference between them is that CBS did not announce the date that the remaining episodes would air and only said it would be in the future while ABC gave a start date to airing the final episodes to TDITV.

Any opinions on which of these two shows should really get the listing as the first cancellation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.151.192.3 (talk) 18:52, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

@139.151.192.3 "Me, Myself, and I" is the first cancellation. "Ten Days in the Valley" has not been canceled. From the article that says that it's moving days and taking a hiatus "ABC took a step toward canceling underperforming new drama series Ten Days In the Valley, shifting it from Sunday to the low-trafficked Saturday night after four episodes." 74thClarkBarHG (talk) 20:23, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Why is the page semi protected until May 14. Is it either vandism or disruptive editing? Player2847582 (talk) 22:08, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

The history log shows it as disruptive editing. (Until next time... Anon e Mouse Jr.) Anon e Mouse Jr. (talk) 23:43, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
