The network has a number of new unscripted series it could slot there - including The Awesome Show, Ellen's Game of Games, Genius Junior and The Handmade Project. The network also hasn't made any decisions about the futures for The Brave and Great News beyond their initial 13-episode orders. Meanwhile, The Good Place once again taps off its season at 13 episodes.
