According to TVLine's Kimberly Roots, the USA Network has expressed interest in picking up Happy Endings for a fourth season in the event that ABC cancels it. Here's an excerpt from the article:
Sony TV, which produces Endings, has approached a few networks about continuing the crew’s shenanigans; our sister site Deadline reports that USA Network has expressed interest.
The news is a welcome surprise for fans of the quirky ensemble series, which was exiled to Fridays — often a harbinger of cancellation — last month. Its first Friday broadcast drew 3 million total viewers and a 0.9 rating with the 18-49 demo (and its second that evening fared worse), falling below its average Tuesday-night numbers.

My thoughts: I for one really hope that this works out and the USA Network does pick Happy Endings up for a fourth season, because at this point I'll be beyond shocked if ABC renews the show given how low the ratings have been this season. I would absolutely hate to see Happy Endings get canceled. If you ask me, Happy Endings is one of the funniest and most underrated comedies on TV right now right along with It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, New Girl, Cougar Town and Rules of Engagement. I still love Modern Family, but season four has been extremely lackluster so far.
When I see the ratings that Modern Family still manages to get even in its fourth season, it really makes me think that Happy Endings, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, New Girl, Cougar Town and Rules of Engagement are all far more deserving of Modern Family's high ratings. That being said, I really do hope that this works out, but I'm going to try my best to not get excited about this news until it's official since anything can happen in the entertainment industry and this could very easily not work out in the end. If this does happen, I will love the USA Network even more than I already do since White Collar and Suits are two of my favorite TV shows.
