USA TODAY’s 24th annual TV survey needs your opinion. What shows are on the bubble?

It’s time to save your favorite show. h USA TODAY’s 24th annual Save Our Shows poll asks you to pick your favorites among 25 endangered sitcoms and dramas fighting for survival on the major broadcast networks. Don’t worry: Fan favorites such as “Grey’s Anatomy” and “This Is Us” are safe, even if a contract or two needs signing. h But this year’s list of series hovering “on the bubble” between renewal and cancellati­on includes a long-running comedy (“The Goldbergs”), a cult favorite (“Manifest”), newer entries from Dwayne Johnson’s “Young Rock” to “All Rise” and last year’s winner, “Zoey’s Extraordin­ary Playlist,” which won extraordin­ary support from a record 67% of 2020 respondent­s – and a second season. For some shows, it’s simply too soon to tell how they’ll perform: NBC’s “Law & Order: Organized Crime” and CBS’ “United States of Al” premiered only last week. h Also among this year’s crop: ABC’s “For Life,” a drama based on the true story of Isaac Wright Jr., a wrongfully convicted Black man who became a jailhouse lawyer to help himself and others. “It’s a relevant show that needs to be seen,” says series star Nicholas Pinnock, who hopes for a third season. “There’s more to the story; we’re not finished yet.” h Which will stay and which will go? You can have your say, for a limited time, before the networks make their own calls ahead of their 2021-2022 schedule announceme­nts in mid-May. Choose your favorites at
