Although it’s frosty winds have begun to gnaw at our vulnerable morning skin, winter is still a season away. There’s still plenty of time to chop wood, replace the screen windows and rake the leaves. There’s no reason to rush into winter rituals, for once it arrives, it will overstay its welcome by several months. Winter is exciting. It’s something to ard to the impending winter and all the new possibilities it will bring, take it all with a grain of salt.

For fans of the hit series “The Fosters,” this may prove more difficult. The show returns for the second half of its debut season in January. Once again, it’s another reason to look forward to the frigid months, one that won’t necessarily fade as they drag on. Each week, new episodes will get viewers through the week as they plan their weekly schedules, keeping consistent with its allure and entertainment. And for those of you who simply cannot wait for the show to return, despite the blankets of pillowy snow that will come along with it and will quickly turn into disgusting sludge, a handful of details from production help calm the angst.

And what’s better to hear than an entire second season? According to TVLine, the first half of Season 1 ranked the No. 1 new cable series of the summer with viewers 12-34, prompting ABC to sign on for more.

“The Fosters has demonstrated its ability to build an audience, and the creative team’s compelling storytelling assures us that there will be more growth in upcoming seasons,” said ABC Family CCO Kate Juergens in a statement. “The show’s dynamic cast and groundbreaking storylines resonate with our core viewers and leave them wanting more.”

Season 1b premieres in January, with a second season lurking around the corner.
