NBC announced today when their falls shows are premiering and I am not happy they are messing with Chicago Fire. That is the bad news, the good news is it looks like Neil Patrick Harris’ variety show is in trouble because they moved it up to before the scheduled start of the fall season, so they can get rid of it earlier. The move makes sense because the Oscars were his career’s death nail. I realize it wasn’t fully his fault, but he didn’t save them either. If the Academy Awards were his idea of variety, it didn’t win over America.
When it comes to the rest of the shows, People are Talking will be lucky to make it December the comedy is premiering in mid-October and most shows (minus Grimm) fail if the debut that late. Why am I not saying that about Chicago Med? Because that is a spinoff of Fire, Med and SVU, so I expect a big crossover launch for it.
What night are you most excited for? I can’t wait to have my Heroes back and to watch the cast of Undateable do the unthinkable every week and go live! I hope they can handle the hour because I wouldn’t be surprised that when People are Talking gets cancelled NBC asks them to do that every week.
