Thursday:
Alias
WTH?! Yay, another season where I have to get my best friend to tape a show while I watch another with Alias up against Survivor. Wish I had TiVo.

Can't wait to see Night Stalker. Stuart Townshend is awesome.

Thursday:
Alias
The Night Stalker

The switch of Alias to Thursday is interesting, because I thought the main reason it's raitings were up this year was due to the lead in by Lost. Whatever happens I hope it's not on opposite the Apprentice.

Its opposite Joey & Will & Grace & Survivor.
If it was opposite the Apprentice & CSI I would consider is canceled by mid year.

Man, that Thursday 8 pm timeslot is really crammed for me. SmackDown, The O.C., Survivor, and Alias. Looks like I'm going to have to watch one of them and tape the rest. It's a shame they can't keep Alias with Lost.
Blind Justice not returning? No problem here. Boston Legal is fine with me.

Oh yes I forgot the O.C. I guess Alias is officially screwed.

That's easy.
Watch the other three and sacrifice Smackdown, doy!
Smackdown is like rotten cheese at the moment

Yeah, but that's easy to say when we're four months away from the 2005 Fall schedule. The draft might shake up things a little.

Well, that's the last season of "Alias," then. Hopefully they discover that Rambaldi was just screwing with them all.
"Desperate Housewives" really doesn't belong between the schmaltz they have it sandwiched between now. "Boston Legal" is a more natural partner with it.
And WTF to moving "Lost" back an hour -- hi, it was a huge hit in the slot it debuted in. Stop trying to screw your ratings up, guys.

Jesus Christ. Why not just be like FOX and move Alias to Friday nights at 8 so we can get it over with that much faster!

And I just found out that the WB is moving Smallville to Thursday's 8 pm slot as well. I know many here don't think much of the show anymore, but for me, I'd like to finish out its run. Wow. Thursday nights is going to be crazy.

Shows I'm going to watch on ABC this Fall:
Wednesday:
Lost---Man! So glad this is coming back! Its one of the best new shows this season!
Invasion-Sounds interesting!
Thursday:
Alias-I am worried about this. I may not like Survivor, but it does good in the ratings. *sigh* Prob not a good timeslot here for Alias, though it does give me something to watch on Thursdays at 7. FINALLY!
The Night Stalker-Sounds really interesting! I hope its good! But going up against CSI..well...it might not last long. *sigh*
And there's a couple of interesting midseason shows for ABC:
The Evidence: A procerdural where all the clues of the mystery are revealed at the beginning of the episode! Then we're taken to the day of the crime and we have to try and figure out the mystery with the cops! Martain Landu and Orlando Jones are in this!
In Justice: A lawyer tries to find presumed guilty people innocent. Sounds interesting!
And thats all I'm watching on ABC!
It looks like Eyes and Blind Justice were canceled..*sigh* Sucks....but pretty much what I expected...

I think they're gambling on Stewart Townsend bringing in the goods.

I'm PISSED!! Alias, Smallville and the OC are all on at the same time on Thursday! If I have a class on Thursdays(which I most likely will if I take two classes this fall), I'm screwed!!

You think so? I think it sounds like cancellation fodder myself.

Only three shows I'm interested in on ABC's schedule.
Tuesdays at 9 pm Commander in Chief
Wednesdays at 9 pm Lost
Thursdays at 8 pm Alias
What the hell is it about moving Lost's time slot and Alias night and time?
As for the midseason, they pretty much detailed where everything was going to show up on the Up Front Page that Zap2it has put up. Except for Less Than Perfect.

The official cancellation tally is: 8 Simple Rules, The Benefactor, Blind Justice, Complete Savages, Eyes, life as we know it, My Wife and Kids, NYPD Blue.
By the way, the rumor is that they will work Jennifer Garner's pregnancy into the storyline with Vaughn being the father of the baby. Unconfirmed, but that is the rumor I read.

Well really, is that a suprise? Whose bright idea was it to have a blind guy walk around with, and sometimes pull?!, his service revolver. That mental midget needs to get out of TV.

Whats funny Is that John Stamos was so sure that " Jake In Progress " was gonna get the ax that he signed to be a regular on ER next season. Thats pretty funny considering that him and Malick also signed to do another show.
I'm sure he's thinking: " Damn It....I coulda been at least on a show where I'll be the resident hot Doctor now. Instead I'm stuck doing this sitcom...damn you ABC !! "

If it wasn't for MNF or Night Stalker, there'd be no reason to put on ABC at all.
