FOX:
- Lots of comedies. Tuesday will be their 'comedy night' with Glee moving to an 8pm timeslot to accommodate two new half hour comedies: Raising Hope, a comedy based on an irresponsible guy dealing with a baby that just dropped into his lap, and Running Wilde, a Mitch Hurwitz (a.k.a. the amazing man who brought us Arrested Development) production starring Will Arnett and Keri Russell and centered around a millionaire trying to woo back his childhood love. Preview both below:
- Watch out for the Steven Spielberg produced prehistoric series, Terra Nova. Should be interesting to see how this plays out. It could either crash and burn horribly or be a runaway hit, considering it's something no one's ever seen on primetime before.
- More show previews, including Mixed Signals (comedy), Bob's Burgers (animated comedy), Ridealong (drama), and Lonestar (drama), here.
- Big news today: After a two and a half month will he or won't he debacle, Charlie Sheen has finally signed on for two more years on Two and a Half Men (phew--that's a lot of two's). Rumor is that he will be receiving over a million for each episode, more than each cast member of Friends made in their last season.
- Shocking news: CBS has canceled The Ghost Whisperer (starring Jennifer Love Hewitt) and The New Adventures of Old Christine (starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus), however, rumor is that ABC is in talks to pick up both shows if the price is right. In addition to the aforementioned shows, CBS has also canceled Cold Case, Miami Medical, Gary Unmarried, Accidentally On Purpose, and Numb3rs. No chance that those are being saved though.
- CBS has picked up &@!$ My Dad Says, a show whose main premise is based on, get this: a Twitter account. It was only a matter of time. It will star William Shatner. Shit My Dad Says, the Twitter account that is, is actually pretty entertaining. Hopefully the show will live up to its, er, Twitter account?! Geez, what has the world come to.
- In addition to Bleep My Dad Says, CBS picked up another comedy, Molly and Mike, and four dramas: Hawaii 5-0, Defenders, Blue Bloods, and Criminal Minds 2.
