NEW SERIES DESCRIPTIONS:
In "My Own Worst Enemy," Henry Spivey (Christian Slater, "Bobby") is a middle-class efficiency expert living a humdrum life in the suburbs with a wife, two kids, a dog, and a minivan. Edward Albright is an operative who speaks 13 languages, runs a four-minute mile, and is trained to kill with his teeth. Henry and Edward are polar opposites who share only one thing in common -- the same body. When the carefully constructed wall between them breaks down, Henry and Edward are thrust into unfamiliar territory where each man is dangerously out of his element. "My Own Worst Enemy" explores the duality of a man who is literally pitted against himself. And it raises the question: who can you trust when you can't trust yourself? Mike O'Malley ("Yes, Dear") and Saffron Burrows ("Boston Legal") also star. The series is produced by Universal Media Studios. Jason Smilovic ("Kidnapped") is the executive producer; David Semel (director of the "American Dreams," "Heroes" and "Life" pilots) is the director and executive producer.
On the heels of NBC's hit movie, the iconic 1980s television classic comes roaring back to life as a reinvented, updated and super-charged action series showcasing the new KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand). Absolutely the coolest car ever created, KITT is equipped with "AI" (artificial intelligence) that is capable of hacking almost any system. Its weapons systems matches that of a jet fighter, and its body is capable of actually transforming into other vehicles and uses sophisticated holographic imagery to elude villains. "Knight Rider" stars Justin Bruening ("Cold Case"), Deanna Russo ("NCIS"), Sydney Tamiia Poitier ("Veronica Mars") and Bruce Davison ("Breach"). David Bartis ("Heist," "The O.C."), Doug Liman ("Mr. and Mrs. Smith," "The Bourne Identity") and Gary Scott Thompson ("Las Vegas," "The Fast and The Furious") are executive producers. Based on characters created by Glen Larson, "Knight Rider" is from Universal Media Studios and Dutch Oven Productions.
The new landmark series "Crusoe" is an epic and ambitious take on Daniel Defoe's legendary tale that finds the dashing and resourceful Crusoe (Philip Winchester, "Thunderbirds") after many years of being a castaway on a desert island with his companion Friday (casting to follow). Written by Stephen Gallagher ("Eleventh Hour") and directed by Duane Clark ("CSI: NY"), "Crusoe" follows the adventures of the two island dwellers while looking in flashback at Crusoe's life before he was thrown into an isolated existence filled with danger and adventure. Among those are his tragic childhood with widower father James (Sean Bean, "The Lord of the Rings"), the blossoming relationship with the love of his life, Susannah (Anna Walton "Hell Boy: the Golden Army") and his entrepreneurial aspirations under the watchful eye of family friend, Jeremiah Blackthorn (Sam Neill, "The Tudors," 'Jurassic Park"). Overcoming marauding militias, hungry cannibals, wild cats, starvation and apocalyptic lightning storms on his seemingly idyllic island, Crusoe dreams of the day he will be reunited with his beloved family. The executive producers are Justin Bodle for Power, Michael Prupas for Muse and Genevieve Hofmeyr for Moonlighting.
For "Kath & Kim," they're the most dysfunctional duo in suburbia. Kath Day (Molly Shannon, NBC's "Saturday Night Live") is the mom, a foxy, 40-something divorcée who finally has time for herself and her valiant search for love. Kim Day (Selma Blair, "Hellboy," "Hellboy II") is the daughter, a self-absorbed princess recently separated from her husband who finds consolation in stuffing her face. When Kim decides to move back home, Kath reluctantly agrees -- but to Kim's chagrin, Kath is not about to cater to her every whim as she has in the past. Based on the most successful comedy in Australia of the same name, Kath and Kim are two brassy women who prefer the finer things in life like acrylic nails, big hair and faux diamond chips. The series is produced by Universal Media Studios and Reveille. The executive producer/writer is Michelle Nader ("The King of Queens") and the executive producer/director is Paul Feig ("Freaks and Geeks," "The Office"). Gina Riley, Jane Turner and Rick McKenna also are executive producers.
From creator/executive producer Thom Beers ("Deadliest Catch," "Ice Road Truckers") and executive producers Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun, "America's Toughest Jobs" is a new extreme competition series that will test 12 people who venture out of their safe, comfortable careers and are injected into some of the most challenging, dangerous and demanding jobs on earth. From logging high in the Oregon Forest to oil drilling on the Texas range, or from driving icy roads to extreme fishing -- each job requires guts and stamina, and they'll have to live up to the same standards as the pros. In the end, their new boss and co-workers will determine success or failure, and those who don't make the grade get sent home. Upping the ante, the annual salary of each job will be thrown into the pot until the finale, where one rookie will take home the well-earned cash. Hosted by Josh Temple, "America's Toughest Jobs" is created by executive producer Beers and is produced by Original Productions and BermanBraun.

But I wanted to beat the Journeyman Choir to the punch
-
What the hell is that? as if SNL on Sat was not bad enough.
-
really needs to get picked up again by someone. It was just getting awesome when it ended. It's miles better than drivel like American Gladiators or a Knight Rider remake.
-
Jack Bauer meets Chuck meets something else, but starring Christian Slater (another 80's pretty boy like Keifer Sutherland, but minus the coolness and professional durability). When you have Slater in anything but a reality TV show about washed up has-beens, badness will ensue. And Mike "please love me!!" O' Malley?
-
Save for Heroes and the Office, it could be an all informercial channel for all I care. I might give Caruso a try, but nothing else interests me.
-
are you serious?
-
NOW FAMMIT!
-
or is that show a No Go??
-
and airing midseason
-
"Knight Rider" or "Pushings Daisies" will die by Thanksgiving. "Life" on Fridays? That's dumb. "Chuck" and "Teminator" head to head?Somebody will blink on that one.-----later-----m
-
KNIGHT RIDER didn't screen in a theater, it ran on television. It is not a movie. At best it is a made for television movie. Don't try to elevate it you marketing fucks.
-
What about the regular Law and Order, and Criminal Intent?
-
criminal intent was relegated to USA network where they will be running new eps starting in June.
-
Friday timeslot = soon-to-be-dead show.
Beyond that, looks like I need a DVR that can tape more than two shows at a time, as I am never at home primetime, and the networks always opt to put shows I like against one another. -
Crusoe has flashbacks, militias, cannibals, wildcats, and apocalyptic lightning. Could it sound anymore like LOST? Bleh.
-
In the Knight Rider description. For a moment, I was confused. I've never seen the acronym before.
-
It's not like The CW has much to offer. I really liked Reaper and where it was going. I know it was on the bubble, but is there any official word?
-
"Another sale, Mr. Costanza. Chalk me up on
the big board." -
midseason. aloha.
-
damn 8 shows my girlfriend and i will want to watch all all from 8-10
-
Is back with new shows on USA in June, and has just been renewed for 16 additional shows on USA beginning in the fall.
-
Stanley and Dwight move to New Orleans and open a private detective agency?
-
WTF?!
-
The under/over for Knight's cancellation is October 31st. I'm betting the under.
-
...except that they were letting Heroes go down the toilet last season. Hopefully they will get back on track.
-
Then they can have Moon Night and broadcast Daybreak and Journeyman together. I'd buy that for a dollar.
-
to be a successful TV series. You'll be scrolling through your channels and it will say "My Own Worst..." and you'll say what the fuck is that? Therefore the show will fail. Stupid producers, don't they know that if you can't sum up your show in 2 words or less, it will fail. Granted that it's a TV Drama.
-
Or did they drop that because they realized its a shitty ass idea.
-
Hollleeeeeee ****. Well, wax my monkey. I thought the tb here following the pilot killed it.
-
Or to be polite, those who do not enjoy the complex storytelling and mythology of Lost, and instead would prefer a much simpler, straightforward island tale.
-
Scrubs and BSG come back.
-
no WONDER Kidnapped got pimped so much! i couldn't figure out what was so interesting about it.
-
I liked Chuck quite a bit. Well, I liked Yvonne quite a bit. But between that and Terminator... sorry, Chuck.
-
Herc, Reaper was renewed. 13 episodes to fill in at midseason. You should've checked before you assumed it was cancelled
-
The reason they explain what Artificial Intelligence is, is that five or ten years ago everyone knew, but now the vast majority of moronic TV viewers would think that the KITT car comes equipped with an American Idol.
-
SNL on Thursday is a name both misleading (It's not on Saturday, it's not late Night, it may not be Live) and inaccurate. On the otherhand, a more accurate description, "Weekend Update Thursday" would still be stupid unless you start your weekend way early.It's a half hour of political weekend update as a three week mini-series during the three weeks leading up to the election. There will be an election for the presidency of the United State of America in November. The candidates will be announced some time this Summer.
-
Sorry Sarah, I'll stick with Chuck. I don't find Terminator all that funny; I don't get the jokes.
-
Is Scrubs a midseason replacement? Also, Knight rider up against Bones and Pushing Daisies? Man, KR or Daisies is dead. They are so confident in Knight Rider they already have repeats scheduled for Sat?
-
NBC, you pick up this awesome show for a 2nd season and put it in the fucking Friday death slot? This isn't going to work for a heavily serialized show such as Life. For Las Vegas it was cool because each episode was pretty much self contained, but you're sending a great show out to die doing this. But you're NBC, and that's what you do.
-
Well fuck you NBC!.
-
if my beloved black donnelleys got cancelled why should nbc let you guys keep journey man? go watch quantim leap. fuck nbc
-
could be an ok 2 hour block on monday nights provided heroes is more like season 1 and less like season 2. and terminator doesnt lose its way.
still looking forward to more pushing daises and reaper. aside from these 4 shows, don't see a reason to watch much network tv in 2008/2009. -
I thought it was supposed to come back in Oct on NBC and Direct TV. When is it really coming back?
-
Whats the point of that. It worked because it was aussie
-
or Crusoe is Lost for people who actually like story arc to complete themselves, and for any semblance of logic and reality to be present somewhere in a story.
-
...is coming back in the Fall on Direct TV. I think it will be on NBC as a mid-season replacement in the Spring, but I'm not sure about that.
-
Why the dis? Don't make me get all sexlexia on yo' ass, chrth!!
-
Bring Journeyman BACK! They should have put it on after Medium... everything that follows Heroes dies a horrible death.
-
I AM HORRIBLY EMBARRASSED. Please forgive us. Molly Shannon? Selma Blair? You think Americans are ready for
IT'S CALLED "KARDONNAY" YOU PACKET OF SHUNTS! No. We will fuck it up. This is not another "Office," I do hope this will crash and burn, as to not tarnish the original.
And please, do not get an American Idol to do the theme tune... -
If they do we can look forward to even more craptastic reality TV
Journeyman's dead people, let it go. -
And she better be vertical throughout the entire season *glares at Tim Kring*.

"KITT is equipped with "AI" (artificial intelligence) that is capable of hacking almost any system. Its weapons systems matches that of a jet fighter, and its body is capable of actually transforming into other vehicles and uses sophisticated holographic imagery to elude villains."When did all that happen?
