Found the list (from back in February):
Pickups Return Fall's Most Successful Series: "Brothers & Sisters," "Desperate Housewives," "Dirty Sexy Money," "Grey's Anatomy," "Lost," "Private Practice," "Pushing Daisies," "Samantha Who?" and "Ugly Betty" Receive Pickups for '08-'09 Season

Some of the shows on there are not going to return till next fall or have only a handful of episodes so ABC did early pickup. BL got a decent number of episodes left so they wanted to see how they all did and so far so good.
All the rumors that I'v read are that while 1 or 2 people inside ABC may have there doubts about the show...BL will get given a 5th and final season.
