And, since it's the end of the season, let's see how things have shaken out: Well, Fastlane survived a full season and may get a second. Oliver Beene managed to get an episode or two shown during sweeps, but the prognosis isn't good. On the other hand, that Thursday lineup never aired, Push...

"Andromeda" is not on a broadcast network, so it doesn't have a national timeslot. Thus, it ain't on the list, but I think it is continuing on (in fact, given "Andromeda"'s unusual production schedule, it may have started shooting already).

Well, I sample a lot, but half of the new shows I listed will probably get dropped (voluntarily or otherwise :)). It comes from having no taste - I know some people who limit themselves to/exclude certain genres, but I'll try just about anything, and I have trouble dropping things before...

Okay, we've got the list, now what do you plan on watching? For me: Sunday: "Futurama", "The Simpsons", "Charmed", "Alias", "Malcolm In The Middle", "Law & Order: Criminal Intent", "Angel", "Boomtown" This is nuts. "Charmed" has always been a guilty pleasure of mine, but it managed to pull...

...And Fox. This schedule really drives me nuts; there's a lot of high-level talent involved, but nothing new that grabs me. "Firefly", for instance, is getting a new pilot (and has already had recasting and reshoots), despite the one it has being the most expensive ever. Joss Whedon has a...

Updated with UPN. They've apparently given up programming Friday night but won't admit it. Not much to say; UPN still strikes me less as a real network than as a group of syndication blocks. I worry about "The Twilight Zone", because it's from the guys who did MGM/Showtime/Sci-Fi's "Outer...

Funky co-incidences so far: ABC and WB each have a show about a guy in his thirties somehow being thrown back in time to when he was in high school, "Do Over" and "That Was Then". Supposedly, the presentations to advertisers were extraordinarily similar. CBS and ABC both have scheduled...

Actually, I think "Stargate SG-1" will be Fridays at 9pm ET, with "Farscape" on at 10pm. Also, it appears that "Firefly" is being bumped to midseason - pilot problems; Fox apparently wants more action. I'm wondering if this could push the cost of the pilot over $20M. Supposedly, Fox is...

Updated with CBS. Like NBC, CBS is doing fairly well and not losing a lot of stalwarts. Glad to see "The Amazing Race" and "The Agency" returning. I've got to admit, I'm disappointed in the new shows. Understand, most of them look like good shows, but there were three lines in the...

What, you mean people weren't watching "Dark Angel"? :D I can't see them putting "Firefly" on Friday, though - that show's about as pricey as "Dark Angel", and Friday doesn't pull in the audience to pay for it. (And we're already watching "Farscape") It almost has to go on Sunday or Tuesday...

Updated with ABC and WB. Sunday at 9pm is looking brutal, especially if Fox puts "24" there (I don't imagine they'll put "Firefly" against "Angel" - why shoot yourself in the foot?) Anyway, looks like ABC's gonna implode. I actually like the idea of putting "Drew" on Mondays before football...
