Interesting that they think 5 shows will move them out of a last place tie with NBC. I think I
would have cleaned house and probably brought on 10-15 new series. GOOD LUCK. I thought
ABC would do well in 2011-2012 until I saw some of their sorry shows.

Has ABC also given up on "WipeOut"? They usually scheduled that show when other shows were tanking. Is it still in production?

Wipeout returns this summer on ABC...

"WIPEOUT – PREMIERES THURSDAY, JUNE 28 (9:00-10:00 p.m.) Nothing says summer like completely new “Wipeout” courses, this year featuring the Panic Hammocks, Snakes on the Plain and Batter Up..."

I predict this show will have a very short run.

It is too close to the painful truth that too many are living through in these times.
Traditionally that is the kiss of death in television. People turn on the tube for distraction,
they do not want to be reminded of the crappy reality that is their actual life.

THURSDAY:

Sounds like "McHale's Navy meets Vishnu, the Destroyer of Worlds".

If Last Resort fails, and typically anything Thursday at 8pm for ABC usually does, wipeout will probably take that slot again

I've often wondered why ABC doesn't schedule basketball on
Saturday nights after college football ends; now I'm glad to see
it, even if the ratings aren't that spectacular it's still a good fit.
Only thing I don't like about it is that if they do college basketball,
CBS has the SEC so I don't get to see Kentucky on ABC.

tournament time.

Wonder why they decided to move Revenge from Wednesday nights to Sunday nights except for the kooky scheduling hiatus earlier it seemed to do well in its spot that Nashville show sounds like it could bomb. Then again at least its behind Once Upon a Time for a lead in.
