On the train wreck that is FOX, Home Free rose to a 1.0 A18-49 rating, which is pretty good enough to get renewed. The show has been steady in the ratings, and it is now the highest FOX unscripted program of the summer season, just above So You Think You Can Dance?, which experienced a ratings decline. I think Home Free would be renewed by a slim margin, but don't expect for it to premiere in the regular season.

This week, America's Got Talent was renewed for a twelfth season by NBC. No surprise there.
