SUMMER 2006 - WEEK #8: What's "New" This Week?!
Casey McDonald's Guidance Counsellor, Ian J. Ball
weeks can I be expected to post this?
Probably only a couple more - by mid-August-ish, new "summer" shows
will no longer be premiering, and instead (early) Fall shows (esp. on
FOX) will start premiering. So expect only a couple more editions of
this listing...
And, if I'm forgetting anything, please feel free to add to this! -
Additions/corrections are welcome.
Also, don't forget, it's often easier to see this kind of thing in grid
form, so go here:

So, what's up this week? Tonight, the SUNDAY edition of CBS's "BIG
BROTHER [7]: ALL-STARS" premieres, as does Lifetime's new FBI procedural
"ANGELA'S EYES".
Later in, "I Really Hate This Scheduling Department", Sci-Fi's new drama
"EUREKA" premiere Tuesday at 9pm, exactly *opposite* CBS's 'performance'
edition of "Rock Star: Supernova" (this really sucks, as I want to watch
both - looks like Eureka may get the VCR treatment...).
Finally, ABC's new reality competition "THE ONE: MAKING OF A MUSIC STAR"
premieres (on Tues. & Wed.).
So, what's up next week? The premiere of ABC Family's [TV movie(?)
limited series(?)] "Fallen", and the return of ABC's "Night Stalker" to
Sci-Fi channel (on Friday, July 28). And that's pretty much it. Hence,
the coming wind-down of this listing.
(Apparently, the following week, NBC will start burning-off some of the
unaired episodes of "E-Ring", starting Saturday, August 5.)
Anyway, here's the "new" offerings (focusing more on the scripted end)

Don't forget that the SciFi channel will be showing two episodes of
"Dead Like Me" before "Eureka." It may not be brand new but since it
was on Showtime I imagine quite a few people didn't see it and it is
well worth watching.

Saturdays are good days to watch shows like "Tim Russert", "Meet the
Press", and "Reliable Sources". This weekend Tim spent his entire hour
talking about TV. How shows come about and go through the process of
being chosen, how often the most successful hits were rejected by all
the major networks repeatedly, the fight for declining ratings,
serialized vs. standalone vs. reality shows, personal rivalries between
studio heads, and more.
