penfold_xNBC has announced its fall schedule, and let's just say the prospects for the Peacock network don't look good. The only 'shock' is that L&O:TBJ is gone; I didn't think it was doing too badly, but unlike L&O, SVU and CI, none of the characters resonated with me. Revelations is toast; that's what happens when you are both boring and schlocky. Someone really ought to have told NBC that including God as a recurring character does not automatically make your show the next Passion. West Wing is moving to Sunday, and E-Ring (an hour-long drama about the Pentagon) is taking its place. The sitcom is showing no signs of revival: NBC renewed "The Office" despite lousy ratings. The network scheduled only two hours of comedy for the entire week. The one new comedy: "My Name is Earl," with Jason Lee portraying a downtrodden lottery winner.
The only winner here is basic cable.
