ABC Announces Fourth Season Finale

ABC has issued the press release for the fourth season finale of The Middle. Marion Ross (Happy Days) guest stars as the Vice Prinipal at Brick's school.

"The Graduation" - As graduation day approaches, tension begins to build between Frankie and Axl when he ignores her requests for answers about The Graduation party she's planning for his special day. Meanwhile, Sue hopes that the sixth time's the charm as she once again attempts to pass her driver's test; and during his final days of elementary school, a forgetful Brick is reminded by Vice Principal Dunlap (Marion Ross) that he's the class historian and is responsible for putting together a slideshow highlighting the last four years of school for the school assembly, on the Season Finale of "The Middle," WEDNESDAY, MAY 22 (8:00-8:30 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

"The Graduation" was written by Tim Hobert and directed by series co-creator & execeutive producer Eileen Heisler. With The Middle's fourth season wrapping up thoughts of course turn to the question of a fifth season. Following last year's trend of avoiding early renewals, ABC has not yet officially renewed The Middle for next season. The show's chance of renewal is, however, practically a certainty, so don't worry much! ABC will be confirming its fall schedule at the UpFronts next week, so we will receive official confirmation very soon.
