We're very near the holiday break now, and some shows are already leaving us, but there's still plenty to talk about in TV. The Big Bang Theory once again set a record, dominating the whole week, while The Walking Dead slumped but still stayed on top, and Last Resort and 666 Park Avenue got some unwelcome news.

It looks like we'll never find out the dark mysteries behind Last Resort and 666 Park Avenue. ABC has canceled both new shows due to low ratings and opted not to pick up the back nine episodes. That means both shows will end after 13 episodes, with ABC planning on airing all the episodes.

We're about two months into the 2012-2013 TV season, and it's getting easier to tell which shows will be sticking around and which ones probably won't make the cut. On ABC, both 666 Park Avenue and Last Resort are struggling, while Elementary is making a case for another season at CBS. Meanwhile, there is no question at all about the futures of The Walking Dead and The Big Bang Theory.

With a solid bit of ratings data in the books, ABC has made a decision on two of their freshmen series—the awesome Last Resort and scary soap 666 Park Avenue. So what's the latest?
