Bottom Of The Barrel

ABC follows suit

ABC has announced their fall schedule and just like NBC they have slashed away most of their comedies including George Lopez, Help Me Help You, Knights of Prosperity, What About Brian [According to Jim is still undecided but not listed as a fall show]. They have added several dramas including:

Big Shots [four friends who are also dysfunctional CEOs]
Cavemen [based on the Geico insurance commercials]
Carpoolers [four men driving to work]
Eli Stone [another crime fighter with visions]
Private Practice [Grey's spin-off, following the L&O and CSI franchises]
Pushing Daisies [forensic fairy tale with reanimating young boy]
Women’s Murder Club [based on the Patterson novel series]

Of these shows only Private has a built in audience. The rest go from the absurd [Cavemen and Carpoolers] to the straight copycat variety [Eli Stone, Pushing Daisies]. Maybe Medium and Ghost Whisperer are good ideas since ABC is pushing out two shows that use the same formula. Several previews are online for your viewing, ummm, pleasure.
