The prime-time soap "Dirty Sexy Money," fantasy forensics series "Pushing Daisies," the "Grey's Anatomy" spinoff "Private Practice" and Christina Applegate comedy "Samantha Who?" will all be back for a second season.

The other pick-ups aren't a surprise: "Desperate Housewives," "Lost," "Grey's Anatomy," "Brothers & Sisters" and "Ugly Betty."

The rest of ABC's fall schedule will be unveiled in the next few months.

Television writers could be back at work as early as Wednesday if members of their union vote to end their walkout because of a tentative contract deal. It's still unclear how much of this current season can be salvaged for favorite shows.

Good news that Pushing Daisies is renewed. but Bad news is that we won't see a new episode until the fall.

And seriosuly, they must really be pushing for Samantha Who? Christina Applegate must really have some high power lawyers or a really high influence. After all, there was some broadway show that closed in record time she was supposed to be in. She either broke her leg, or took ill and couldn't perform. But she pleaded and pleaded that the show went on with her in it. It closed a couple weeks later, I think. All and all, she was better in Married with Children.
