The ABC and My Network TV Fall 2006 Lineup

Its all up now, or at least I have it done.

ABC

First the Cancelled Shows. Here are the lengths of the shows

Night Stalker: 10 Total Episodes, 6 aired

Rodney: 2 Seasons, Apox 37 Episodes

Sons & Daughters: 11 Total Episodes, 1 unaired

As expected Dr. Grey and company are no longer going to be "Cozy in the Rocket." Cause ABC is moving the show to Thursday nights very likley aganist CBS's Titan Crime Drama CSI. Can CSI give The Who's famous line to the Medical Interns???? Invasion is the last of the alien invasion dramas to fall like flies, proving that if you don't watch any of the shows you truly can stop any Alien Invaders...at least on TV.

So what is taking Grey's place??? "Brothers and Sisters" which finally gives the former Ally McBeal (Calista Flockhart) some work. Joining her are former Alias cast members Ron Rifkin (but not before we see him get his...Alias fans hope), and Balthazar Getty (Another one Busted not now but soon). "What About Brian" still has a chance to prove itself as it remains of Monday nights. Speaking of Brian, J.J. Abrams has a new show for the Alphabet Channel "Six Degrees" and while Brian is closer to the kitchen sink, Degress has its quarks that might top the quarks that 'Lost' and 'Alias' are known for. ABC builds on the Soap Opera takeoffs by remaking the hit Telenovel for American audiences called "Betty The Ugly," which will face off with 26 beauties and Howie (Deal or No Deal), and very likely Jennifer Love Hewit (Ghost Whisper).

Return to the ABC screen is "George Lopez," and Dancing with the Stars. The later will air Tuesdays and Wednesdays respectful. Also returning is EM: Home Editon, Wife Swap, Supernanny, and The Bachelor just to name a few.

Allright I had my say now click the links

ABC's New Shows

The Prime TV Grid for ABC Fall 2006

My Network TV

The NEW Number SIX network, and this one is related to FOX, in fact the former UPN affliates that were owned by parent News Corp are the key affilates for this new network. With UPN and The WB merging into one animal called The CW, News Corp had to block Indy TV's big comeback. ABC might be adapting a Telenoval for the American market, but My Network TV wants to BRING IT into the American Market and add to the types of TV formats allready. The term however will be called "short dramatic series." This could be a new kind of TV that might be around for years to come. If that is the case old Daytime Dramas like 'The Young and the Restless,' 'General Hosptial,' etc etc etc etc might finally be heading into TV history.

Check out the first two 'Short Dramatic Dramas' for youself. Just click here.

Hump Day it will by The Eye's turn...CBS that is. "King of Queens" is good to go for a ninth season, but it will not start until January 2007. I don't go into work until the afternoon. I could have it done before that time.
