slightly off topic, but i have a few questions that pertain to the 09-10 season.

1) what do you think about "chuck" getting picked up for a half season (starting in Jan '10) with a reduced budget?

2) any thoughts on michael strahan's new sitcom "brothers," which premieres on friday nights on FOX?

3) any thoughts "medium" moving to cbs, and to friday nights in the same time slot as "dollhouse?"

For a nice comparison of the Fall 2009 season, night by night showing what shows will be competing against eachother, you can always check out Variety:

(at the bottom there's also a link to the Winter 2009-2010 schedule, since it will be changing at that point for many of the networks).

Also… how long do you give the NBC Jay Leno at 10pm experiment before it explodes in NBCs collective face?

Because they'd still rather give shows they think have more of a mass appeal the better timeslots.

But keeping 'Til Death around is a SERIOUS slap in the face.

Dollhouse will be up against Medium (transplanted from NBC to CBS) and… UGLY BETTY? Wow.

"The Wayans Bros. was a good show! And we didn't even get a final episode!"

alternatively, "What all of America wants. A reunion of the cast of friends…from Night Court!" "Court? At night? I'm already laughing! Tell me more."

Well Bill Lawrence's line of reasoning is pretty sound. We like to sit here and judge from the audience's POV, but there are a lot of people working on Scrubs. When the show ends, they all get fired and have to find new jobs. Bill Lawrence is trying to keep them employed for as long as he can because he feels he owes it to them, especially in this economy. And he also said that if Scrubs 2.0 fails, it won't dribble to the finish line. He wants it to fail spectacularly in a blaze of glory.

Some people feel the show had a renaissance on ABC this past season.
