ABC announced its fall slate Tuesday morning!
The big news is that, following this Sunday’s season finale no new “Alias” episode will air in 2004.
What are we excited about? “Lost,” the weirdass new castaway series from “Alias” creator J.J. Abrams, and “Fleet Street,” the “Practice” sequel starring James Spader, William Shatner, Rhona Mitra and Lake Bell.
Shitcoms “I’m With Her” and “It’s All Relative” have been purged (and the Jessica Simpson laugh-fest apparently was not ordered), apparently because all networks realized about seven seconds ago that Americans now prefer reality shows to anything with a laughtrack. Even "Life With Bonnie," described as "renewed (or almost)" by USA Today last month, is on the scrapheap.
One caveat: some say “Wife Swap” and “Extreme Makeover” could trade slots by the time of ABC’s formal Tuesday announcement.
The expected big rundown:
