I Dream of Jeannie DVD Coming; Network Sitcom Full Season Pick-Ups
And look for my review of Bewitched's second season DVD very soon, as soon as we get the colorized copy as well!
And two new sitcoms have been picked up for the back nine, meaning ordered for a full 22-episode season. The two are UPN's Everybody Hates Chris and NBC's My Name is Earl, which is the highest rated sitcom among adults 18-49. And despite very poor ratings, NBC's sophomore sitcom The Office has been upped to 13 episodes, instead of the six that were originally ordered. Meanwhile, the FOX drama Prison Break was the first new series to be picked up for the back nine.
