Studio 60 looks good. Plus I mean Aaron Sorkin created it and is writing it, so you can't go wrong there. I don't think many people would argue when he was helming The West Wing it was damn good television, he has the Emmys to prove it, as does Allison Janney; Richard Schiff and John Spencer (RIP). So NBC is smart to move it!! Very wise decision.

NBC's Fall Fix: Medium Out, Jordan In

NBC held a Thursday-afternoon conference call to discuss its fall schedule, which has been revised, in part, to avoid pitting Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip against CSI and Grey's Anatomy (which ABC slid into the Thursdays-at-9 slot after the Peacock had already unveiled its own lineup). The official word from NBC Entertainment President Kevin Reilly: Studio 60 is moving to Mondays at 10, bumping Medium to a mid-season return; Tuesday will feature Law & Order: Criminal Intent and SVU back-to-back, starting at 9, an adjustment NBC made after seeing that Fox didn't move House; Wednesday now starts off with the 20 Good Years-30 Rock combo, followed by The Biggest Loser and Kidnapped; the Thursday-at-9 problem is being solved with Deal or No Deal, a show with "a lot of momentum," says Reilly; and Fridays will now kick off with Crossing Jordan — that's right, no wait for mid-season — and close with Law & Order, which, Reilly says, will be invigorated by "multiple cast changes."

very interesting schedule..I'm very happy that Studio 60 is in the 10pm slot on mondays..Now i will have the opportunity to watch it, also thats a timeslot that nbc does fairly well in...Tuesday night is interesting now with Friday Night Lights, Law and Order CI, and SVU...2 law and orders on one night might be overkill, but USA does it all the time in syndication...I'm glad the wednesday comedies got moved to 8pm, as they won't compete with Lost...but kidnapped at 10pm might be hard timeslot..Look how heist bombed...Deal or No Deal is a good show to put against greys and CSI...I will just watch Greys...Fridays should be solid for NBC, but moving Law and Order is a risky move, and probably one that pissed Dick Wolf off..

      LOL at Leslie being excited for the cops to search her place.
    • Writers: Christopher Dunn Judy Tate Director: Michael V. Pomarico
    • But she's a DUPREE and that makes her immune to any and everything! 
    • About the only thing that could really get me interested in this show right now would be a "Who Killed Victor?" storyline IF he stayed dead. The writing for him is atrocious! And the lineup of possible suspects would be most of the canvas. Months worth of great story if done well.....of course...not getting done with Griffith. 
    • I really hope you’re wrong. Dani Desperate Dupree being right will make her even more insufferable than she’s already been.
    • I know this board has very strong opinions about Scheffer's reign which run the gamut from brilliant to the nadir of the series.  I'm one of the fans. 2001 - 2005 are, imo, the second best years for the series. The first being Marland.  As The World Turns won Daytime Emmy Awards for Best Drama Series in '87 and '91. However, it wasn't until Scheffer came along that it won again...in '01 and '03. Plus it won for Best Writing Team in '01, '02, '04, and '05, an award it had never managed to win before and didn't again. When Scheffer left and Passanante was the main head writer (along with various other co-head writers) the show began to seriously tank. However, it wasn't just the writing. The budget was gone. The sets were made to be smaller or destroyed. There was all that weird hand held camera directing for a while. Scenes that were obviously shot in the hallway where the series was filmed. I think '06 - '10 is a roller coaster. There are some storylines I really enjoyed and some that were eye-rolling. Looking in the rearview mirror though, I can see that the actors, writers, directors, and crew were working their best with what money they had.
    • They are idiots! It seems crazy that Leslie is inserting herself so much into this investigation but everybody is falling into her traps. I find it to be an interesting back and forth and I'm still not completely sure who will win. I have a theory but I'm going to wait for more to develop before I say more. I feel like Haley has been more on the sidelines so I'm enjoying this new desperate streak she appears to be developing. I'm curious how it'll manifest overtime. I also agree with Dani that I am not convinced she's pregnant. I think she's trying to get pregnant but really just see's herself fading into the background and wants attention and validation from Dani and her family.
