Networks Cause Mass Hysteria with Schedule Changes

buddytv · 11-13-2006, 02:02 AM

I know we ran through this last week, but there have been more changes and a boatload more speculation since then regarding the new prime time schedules for the major networks. Sweeps is a key time for re-tooling schedules, and once all the mid-season replacements are placed, the network's hands are pretty much tied. There's no turning back.

In the past few days there have been some mildly surprising announcements (Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip receiving a full-season pickup, Men In Trees to air post-Grey's Anatomy) and there are sure to be some more in the coming week, especially when NBC announces their Winter schedule and ABC decides what to do with their new/departing shows scheduling quagmire. Thanks, mostly to Variety, here is what we know at this point.

Why no "What about Brian articles?" This is a fine show that damands coverage. We get that you like Studio 60 and that the ratings aren't so great, and its kind of a snob show, but the writting is smart. So move on, let's hear about some other programs!!

I'm getting tired of F-Rods rants and raves... I come to Buddy TV to check out reviews of the programs... and so do many of my closest friends and family. I find that Buddy does a better job of actually honestly discussing shows than many other sites... sorry F-Rod- I know you love "chick" shows, but face it, they ain't mainstream and they ain't buddy worthy. Enough said!
