ABC orders full seasons for REVENGE and SUBURGATORY

Rejoice, REVENGE fans!  The new vengeance-themed  soap has been picked up for a full season.  That means 22 glorious episodes of watching the beautiful Emily VanCamp wreak havoc on those filthy-rich Hamptonites.  What could be better than that?  What's that?  The brilliantly satirical SUBURGATORY was also picked up?  That'll do the trick!  The Jeremy Sisto comedy also received a full 22-episode order.

REVENGE's latest episode garnered a 2.7 rating in the adult demo with 7.9 million viewers.  SUBURGATORY did even better, raking in 8.9 million viewers with a 3.1 rating.  Both of these shows came in first place in their time slots, with SUBURGATORY beating NBC's WHITNEY by a landslide (which has also been picked up for a full season), and REVENGE edging out the long-standing CSI in the all-important 18-49 ratings (though CSI still drew in more total viewers).

Seriously, that's gotta be enough good news, right?  Say what?  Sophomore comedy HAPPY ENDINGS just got an order for six more scripts?  That's fantastic!  Great news all around for ABC (especially as the over-hyped yet subpar CHARLIE'S ANGELS has just kicked the can).

How do you feel about REVENGE getting a full season?
