ABC Family fans rejoice! The network made the announcement today that we’ll be getting more episodes of “Switched at Birth,” “The Fosters,” and “Twisted.”
The network has ordered a third season of its award winning drama “Switched at Birth,” and has given back-order pick-ups to the critically acclaimed and successful summer hits, “The Fosters,” and “Twisted.” The series will premiere alongside “Pretty Little Liars” in January 2014.
“ABC Family has always been a home for groundbreaking storytelling with iconic characters and families and we’re thrilled to have ‘The Fosters’ and ‘Twisted’ join our line-up as breakout summer hits,” said Michael Riley, President ABC Family. “We are very proud of the original series we continue to foster, bringing real and relatable characters to life for our viewers and know they are destined to become part of the zeitgeist alongside “Switched at Birth” and “Pretty Little Liars.”
“It’s thrilling to count our two freshman series, ‘The Fosters’ and ‘Twisted’ among our stable of strong, must-see, must-tweet series,” said Kate Juergens, Executive Vice President, Original Programming and Development and Chief Creative Officer, ABC Family. “‘Switched at Birth’ is like no other show on television and we are so proud to have it as part of our family. Adding additional seasons and episodes of our returning series spotlights how well our programming resonates with our audience.”
