2008 Fall Schedule

It's that time of year again - the networks are announcing their plans for the fall. This post will have the schedule as it currently stands, updating through the week as the various networks give out their plans.

It might wind up being a weird one, this year - NBC did their upfront a couple months ago without pilots, and the fall will probably see a lot of shows from last year "relaunched" after the writer's strike delayed them . And we still don't know what sort of monkey wrench the SAG/AFTRA negotiations/potential strike will throw into things.
