Fox has renewed freshman serial killer thriller The Following for a second season, plus is ordering additional seasons of three comedies — a third round for New Girl, a fourth season for Raising Hope and a second season for The Mindy Project.

Not on the pickup list (for now): Glee. The acclaimed comedy musical is expected to return for a fifth season, but negotiations between the network and studio are still ongoing. Long-running procedural Bones was renewed for a ninth season back in January. Friday night straggler Touch is not considered likely to return for a third season, though Fox says no decision has been made.

With The Following, Fox will continue its cable-sized-seasons strategy, ordering another 15 episodes instead of the usual 22-episode full season.

All the shows Fox picked up today were considered likely to return, though the recent numbers for Raising Hope and Mindy Project are below the levels that Fox would have likely found acceptable a year or two ago. The Following has averaged 11.7 million viewers and a 4.0 rating among adults 18-9 when including seven days of DVR playback. New Girl has averaged 6.4 million viewers and 3.5 rating; Mindy Project has 4 million and a 2.1 rating; Raising Hope has 4.5 million and a 2.0 rating.
