‘No Ordinary Family’ and ‘Better with You’ earn full season pickups

Michael Chiklis and his superpowers will be around until at least May: ABC announced today that it gave a full-season order to No Ordinary Family as well as the new comedy Better With You. The Chiklis drama has averaged 9.5 million while the comedy with Joanna Garcia has lured 7.3 million.

Meanwhile, ABC picked up additional episodes of Detroit 1-8-7, the new cop drama that’s averaged 8.9 million, and the returning drama Brothers & Sisters. ABC only ordered 18 episodes of the latter show before the start of the 2010-11 but decided to pick up four more today.

No word yet, however, on the future of The Whole Truth, the new ABC drama that’s only averaged 5.3 million viewers (ranked No. 69 among all primetime shows) and a 1.5 rating/4 share among adults 18-49 (ranked No. 72). ABC is probably waiting to see how the next original episode performs this Wednesday. If yanked, Truth will become the fourth cancellation of the 2010-11 season, behind Fox’s Lone Star, NBC’s Outlaw, and ABC’s My Generation.
