At its peak, Shondaland's ABC empire had five shows running on the network, but now it's down to just three. Part of that may be down to Shonda Rhimes' focus on her mega-deal with Netflix, and another part might just be that many of the shows aren't all that great.

While Grey's Anatomy keeps on going and will outlive us all, How To Get Away With Murder has figured out how to get away with murdering its story, and Station 19 remains stationed at the network, For The People is the latest Shondaland series to bite the dust. The legal drama struggled to attract viewers in a crowded marketplace, leading to its cancellation after just two seasons and 20 episodes.
