Q: When does the new season of "Major Crimes" start? I have not been able to find any information about the regular season.

This is a little awkward. There's a simple reason you can't find any information about the next season of "Major Crimes": there won't be one.

The TNT procedural series -- which started as a spinoff of the network's popular series "The Closer" but became a long-running, established hit in its own right -- ended earlier this year after six seasons on the network.

HUMANS, on AMC

While Max (Ivanno Jeremiah) deals with the consequences of his decision, Laura (Katherine Parkinson) finds out she doesn't know everything in this new episode. Elsewhere, Joe (Tom Goodman-Hill) discovers a secret.

Q: What has happened to "Scorpion"? It's been pre-empted and now "Elementary" is in its time-slot?

Author:

"Pre-empted" is, unfortunately, putting it mildly. "Scorpion" has been canceled.

The show has been underperforming in the ratings for a while now, so the decision wasn't a big surprise to people who track these things.

Indeed, even series star Katharine McPhee, who played Paige, the more socially well-adjusted member of Team Scorpion, seemed less than surprised. She took to Twitter just hours after the cancellation was made official to offer a resigned farewell.
