‘Dancing With the Stars,’ ‘The Bachelor’ and ‘Shark Tank’ Renewed by ABC

Renewals for "Dancing With the Stars," "Shark Tank" and "The Bachelor" come after "Modern Family" and other scripted fare receive go-ahead for further seasons

"Dancing With the Stars," "The Bachelor" and the Mark Burnett-produced "Shark Tank" were greenlit for renewal by ABC on Thursday.

The renewals hardly come as a surprise; "Dancing" and "The Bachelor" remain solid draws for the network, with "DWTS" frequently winning most-watched status against its competitors.
