ABC reportedly close to renewing The Middle

ABC is reportedly close to issuing an early renewal for The Middle, according to TVLine.com. The renewal would bring the show back for its fourth season this fall.

TVLine's report indicates ABC is set to issue early renewals for Modern Family, Once Upon a Time, Revenge, Grey's Anatomy, Castle, Suburgatory, Last Man Standing and Happy Endings along with The Middle.

The renewal would not be surprising as The Middle's ratings have increased this year to an average of 8.90 million viewers per episode.
