Will There Be a Seventh Season of Rules of Engagement?

This spring, Rules of Engagement has been consistently scoring ratings of about 2.5 out of Big Bang Theory episodes, either in the 4's for originals or the 2's for repeats.  In the fall, its ratings were higher (in the 3's); however, TBBT would frequently hit a 5.0, and viewership levels were much higher.  It was a bubble show last year, but was renewed because Shit my Dad Says had a slightly lower rating than it did.  Now, compared to what CBS is airing during May Sweeps, ROE has the lowest rating of any comedy and is airing out of the highest-rated one.  However, Rules could actually finish this year slightly up when compared to last year.  Also working in its favor is the fact that CBS will probably expand their comedy time, because their comedies rate so much better than most of their dramas.  I think that Rules of Engagement will be back.  I will give it a 80% chance of returning.
