Glee returns from hiatus this week, if you didn’t get the message from the non-stop promotional barrage FOX has had about its return the past few weeks. The rest of the week is filled with tons of season finales.

The season finale of Undercover Boss is tonight. It has been renewed for a second season with the promise of female CEOs going undercover next season.  Monday night is the season finale of Life Unexpected, which has not been doing too great in the ratings, but CW seems to like the show’s quality enough that it might be renewed.  On Tuesday night, Melrose Place will have its season finale. The ratings have been very weak so I would be surprised if it was renewed. Both should be announced in May at the latest.

There is a bit more hope for Human Target getting renewed since it could potentially fill the void of 24 going off the air after this season.  The season finale is on Wednesday along with the series finale of Ugly Betty that ABC successfully killed by moving it around to death spots on its schedule.
