Still, the decision to limit Conviction’s Season 1 episode count doesn’t bode well for the future of Hayes Morrison and her fellow CIU partners, and it’s apparently up in the air where the show will end up on ABC’s schedule, with its current spot not cemented.
ABC has decided not to give Conviction an order for a back nine episodes, according to Deadline, though all of the 13 ordered episodes are planned for airing, so no one has to worry about the drama getting axed after its just-aired fifth episode.
