Yeah, I don't watch too much network television.

Funny, though. Every time I went to the movies they played a commercial for Method and Redd, and every time I turned on the tv a commercial was on. They tried so damn hard to cram this show down our throats. Good to see everyone liked it.

[ZariusTwo]

Good to see so many shows that don't suck are getting renewed...unlike last time (coughANGELcough)

I've probably never watched or heard of 50% of the shows mentioned, but glad to see some of my favourites renewed.

[zkarlette]

Rats.. I liked grounded for life....

[Barkworm]

The only two of those shows I still watch are Joey (pretty much only because of Friends nostalgia) and Scrubs (which is slowly getting worse ).

[IceFlash78]

I thought Tru Calling was renewed? I recall there were a few new episodes recently...

Arrested Development on the bubble? ITS ONE OF THE TRULY ORIGINAL AND HILARIOUS SHOWS ON FOX! Great.. they're going to give us more crappy reality shows now!

I feel bad for some of the shows on teh bubble... I liked some of them...

I've never seen FAther of the Pride.. I always wanted to though..

They were filmed before the series was cancelled

[Dane E5R]

Bernie Mac must be renewed. Good ****, there.

[Triceraton]

I'm hopeful that Arrested Development will be renewed. The ratings may be weak, but they're not terrible enough to force a cancellation. And surely they wouldn't cancel the greatest show on television right now. Then again this is Fox we're talking about.

Still, I think AD will be back. Probably in a different time slot or different night, but I think it'll be back. But if the ratings don't improve... next year might be the last one.

[Anarky]

I'd really love to see Joan of Arcadia for one or two more seasons. What? You thought I wouldn't like that show? YOu thought wrong, it's this show I watch once a week which is really interesting, because it gets you to think (yesterday there was that episode with the metal detectors at school. Really interesting) and it's just a nice show.

Yeah that's the only show on the bubble or cancel list I'd like to see renewed.

[The Stryker]

They should Cancel Simpsons Already and Give another show to Reign (NOT FAMILY GUY or the crap-fest that is American Dad) Maybe a King of the Hill That show is funny as Hell when you get into it.

[Barkworm]

I merged the two threads since they were the same.

[Raph's Girl]

Update:

I have been informed that altho the article doesn't say so, Smallville has been renewed. WB will announce their full fall schedule tomarrow. So stay tuned to this thread for further details. Wee...fall scheduling...

[Anarky]

Fathom (New Series): An action-adventure show about the search for a mysterious sea creature.
(Raph's Girl note: Why don't they just call it "20 Thousand Leagues Under the Sea: The Series"???

Fathom is actually a comic book by Michael Turner, I think. And "20'000 leagues under the sea" is not about finding a mysterious sea creature.

CBS released their fall schedule info today:

CBS is planning to infuse more fresh blood into its schedule next season than it did last year, adding at least three comedies and five dramas.

The dramas picked up for 2005-06 range from bread-and-butter crime shows ("American Crime," "Quantico") to the supernatural ("Threshold," "Ghost Whisperer") to the military-themed "The Unit."

After years of total domination of the male point of view on CBS' comedies, the network is going for a more balanced approach next season with its new sitcoms "Everything I Know About Men" and "Flesh & Blood."

Another comedy, the Julia Louis-Dreyfus starrer "Old Christine," is a subject of last-minute negotiations between CBS and producer Warner Bros. TV for a midseason order. As of Monday night, the two sides were still apart on several key terms.

Meanwhile, the midseason drama "Numbers" was poised to return for a second season, with the comedies "Still Standing" and "Yes, Dear" also looking good to come back.

The outlook was much grimmer for sophomore drama "Joan of Arcadia" and veteran "Judging Amy," with at least one of them said to be looking at cancellation. CBS is slated to present its fall schedule Wednesday at Carnegie Hall in New York.

"Quantico" follows the FBI's Behavioral Unit as it tracks dangerous criminals.

"American Crime" stars Jennifer Finnigan as a female prosecutor juggling suburban crime and life as a new mom.

On the heels the departure of its veteran military drama "JAG," CBS is putting on the air another military-themed series, "The Unit," which is said to be headed for midseason. The show revolves around the personal and professional lives of members of an elite military anti-terrorism unit. The ensemble cast includes Dennis Haysbert, Scott Foley, Robert Patrick and Regina Taylor.

Following the success of "Lost," almost every network is adding a new drama about mysterious creatures next season. CBS' entrant is "Threshold," about a team of scientists and military personnel communicating with an alien life-form. Stars Brent Spiner among others. From the mind of Rick Berman...gah.

And CBS' answer to NBC's successful midseason drama "Medium" is "Ghost Whisperer," a Jennifer Love Hewitt vehicle based on the work of James Van Praagh about a newlywed communicating with dead people who have not quite crossed over to the other side.

The comedy "How I Met Your Mother" is an ensemble from the point of view of a family man looking back on his single life. It stars Alyson Hannigan of Buffy fame.

"Flesh & Blood," from "Frasier" veterans Joe Keenan and Christopher Lloyd, stars Stockard Channing and Henry Winkler as the recently divorced heads of a family of single doctors.

And "Everything I Know About Men," which is expected to go midseason, stars Jenna Elfman as a single woman juggling the men in her life.
