ABC Announces Timeslots for New & Returning Sitcoms, 'Knights', ' Emergency', 'Jim' & 'George', 'Lost' Moves to 10PM; Minor i Network Update
ABC has not released yet on what they plan to do with other nights, such as Fridays. Tuesdays at 9 is also a question mark right now, as Big Day and Help Me Help You are scheduled, but the latter will be done with its episode order in early January. When that happens, I expect ABC to double-run Big Day until it finishes its 13 episodes. Still no word on time slots for The Nine and Six Degrees, both of which were promised to return at some point; I can see them airing on Fridays or Saturdays.
ABC will bring another installment of the popular Dancing with the Stars this March. Also on ABC mid-season is Notes from the Underbelly - a new sitcom that will likely be paired with the 90 minute Dancing with the Stars performance show; Traveler - a fast paced drama will air for eight weeks this March; and a few reality/game shows such as Just for Laughs & Set for Life.
Click here for the press release that ABC released today.
Meanwhile, the i Network has slated Christmas episodes of past shows Sue Thomas F.B.eye and Doc this Friday from 9-11pm. Growing Pains is still scheduled to run 9-10pm all this week, until Thursday. No idea yet if Charlie's Angels will return next week, or if they will continue Growing Pains. We should have an answer later this week and maybe the January line-up, too. So keep checking back.
