Following the highly buzzed live episode, which drew a steady 4.21 million viewers and a 1.3 in the demo, NBC has decided to air all of next season live. It’s as yet undetermined whether both coasts will get live airings, as they did with the trial run, or whether they’ll go with the _Saturday Night Live_ model. The question also remains whether _Undateable_ will be able to attract the star power it did for its original episode. The live airing attracted Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Kate Walsh, Victoria Justice, Ed Sheeran and more. Check out all the shows that have been renewed and canceled [here](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/05/08/canceled-shows-list). **More to come**: We’re in the thick of a frantic annual three-day period of TV broadcasters making big decisions, so expect more series orders today—and perhaps some verdicts on existing shows as well.
