Free Ride: 6 Episodes

Head Cases: 6 Episodes produced, 2 aired

Killer Instinct: Apox 13 Episodes Produced, but 9 aired

That 70's Show: 8 Seasons, 200 Total Episodes

The OC gets a fourth season, and don't forget that 'American Idol' and '24' will both return in the Winter/Spring. Also 'The Loop' gets another shot, and that too will happen in Winter/Spring 2007.

Brad Garrett gets a sitcom of his own away from the Raymond universe and out of his shadow as well (Till Death). The soon to be former Jack Bristow (Victor Garber) will go from playing Spy and Spy Games to playing Lawyer (Justice). FOX attempts to get into the late night game (AGAIN!!! Remember Joan Rivers, and Chevy Chase???) with Spike Feresten as their man. Who knows they might have got it right for once. Look at how MADtv gave SNL a run for the viewers.

In the spirit of '24' and 'Prison Break,' FOX will give us 'Vanished.' In this show a team of FBI agents investigate the disappearance of a Senator's wife. This is not "Without a Trace" however as the team find outs about a few rats pulling some strings. 'Standoff' is a drama about a group of hostage negotiators and they might be falling in love with each other too.

FOX will sandwitch 'American Dad' between 'The Simpsons' and Dad's sister show 'Family Guy' in hopes that it will become a Sunday Evening manstay for years to come.

Simon Cowell attempts another series outside of Idol once again. This time he takes a page out of the 'Dancing with the Stars' book. This would be ala 'Singing with the Stars,' but the official title would be "Duets." Does anyone remember a sitcom called 'Duet?' If you don't it was on FOX during its infant years.

Here are all the new shows on FOX this fall.

The Fall FOX Primetime Grid

The Planned Prime Time Grid for January, but it can change depending on the trends.

The CW

Which shows DID NOT get their photos. If you watch 'America's Next Top Model' (which will be on The CW for sure) you know that if you don't your photo, you are out of the game. In a last minute change of heart or whatever, the cast of '7th Heaven' was given their photo. Another last minute photo goes to Country star Reba and her sitcom. Looks like Time Warner and CBS does not want to pay the fee to chuck Reba until their commitment is forfilled. Still Reba may not find a place on The CW. For sure Reba is not part of the fall lineup. In my mind however Reba does have a photo and technally is still in the game.

So who does not get their photos. Here we go.

As stated in the CBS post, Veronica Mars will return for a 3rd year mystery, and other bubble show 'One Tree Hill.' The African-American sitcoms will move to Sunday Nights including 'Everybody Hates Chris.' Smallville and Supernatural will stay on Thursday nights. 7th Heaven by nobody's surprise stays on Monday. Mars is still on Tuesdays and might get better with a paring of 'Glimore Girls.' American's Next Top Model stays on humpday and One Tree Hill hopes they can kept that audience. Friday's well lets just say that a group of certain men and divas will laying the "Smackdown."
