Full Season Pick-Up: "Fresh Off The Boat"

ABC's "Fresh Off The Boat" began its Season 2 with a 13-episode order. Season 1 of the show premiered mid-season, and eked out a renewal after an initial 13-episode run based on its relatively strong performance on ABC's historically weak Tuesday night.
This year, the show was supposed to benefit from its lead-in, "The Muppets," which the network believed would be a hit. Instead, its ratings have declined substantially each week. For the past two weeks, "Fresh Off The Boat" has outperformed it.
ABC recognized the strength of the comedy, ordering an additional nine episodes, which gives the comedy a full 22-episode Season 2.
