Cancelled (by NBC): My Name is Earl and Medium

NBC's 2009-10 schedule effectively cleaves the TV season in half, meaning that some shows will premiere in the fall and then vanish, while others will not return or premiere until midseason.

That means that recent flourishes of good news for Chuck and Friday Night Lights have been tempered by news likely to disappoint the shows' fans.

How so? Though Chuck was picked up for a third season, the action-comedy's fervent fans will have to wait until midseason (after the Winter Olympics, specifically) to get their fix. NBC boss Ben Silverman said in a Tuesday conference call, however, that Chuck's cast will not be whittled down.

And while NBC recently trumpeted news of Friday Night Lights' two-season renewal, Coach Taylor won't call another play until summer 2010 — at least as far as NBC viewers are concerned. Production partner DirecTV likely will unspool FNL sooner, perhaps as early as October (as it did last year). A DirecTV rep offered no official word on the dishcaster's premiere plans for the acclaimed drama.

Not making the cut for NBC: My Name Is Earl and Medium. EW however reports that Earl may elicit interest from ABC or Fox, while CBS may size up Medium for its Friday lineup, paired with Ghost Whisperer.

Drilling down into day-by-day details....

Monday
Heroes (which had "around 19" episodes ordered, says Silverman) is moving to the 8 o'clock slot. The new medical drama Trauma will air at 9, followed by The Jay Leno Show (which will air at 10 every weeknight). Come midseason, Chuck kicks off the night, followed by the new sci-fi drama Day One.

Tuesday
The Biggest Loser will at first weigh in with two-hour outings. At midseason, Loser will downsize to 90 minutes, followed by the new comedy 100 Questions.

Wednesday
Parenthood leads off, followed by Law & Order: SVU. At midseason, the medical drama Mercy replaces Parenthood.

Thursday
Silverman promises "the funniest night on TV," starting with live editions of SNL Weekend Update Thursday. That will be followed by Parks and Recreation, The Office and the new comedy Community, starring Joel Hale and Chevy Chase. Don't cry "Blerg!" just yet, 30 Rock fans: You'll be lizzing anew just a few weeks into the season, once SNL wraps up its multi-episode run and Community moves to 8.

Friday
The landmark 20th season of Law & Order will lead off the night (and serve up at least 16 episodes), followed by the sophomore run of Southland.

Saturday
Dateline, Trauma/Southland repeats, SVU repeats.

Sunday
Once the NFL season ends, NBC will air Dateline at 8, the Jerry Seinfeld-produced reality show The Marriage Ref at 9, and The Celebrity Apprentice at 10.

They should buy into some WWE Programming......That'll draw in the ratings if they actually push it and promote it.

Re: Cancelled (by NBC): My Name is Earl and Medium

Not quite what I had originally posted (just the relative, truncated) version, but all is good.

WWE programming on NBC? That'd be amusing, but what night? I think almost every weeknight is now taken with some WWE show somewhere

Monday - Raw
Tuesday - ECW
Wednesday -??
Thursday - New show, I forget the name of it, Champions or something. Maybe that's on Wednesday
Friday - Smackdown
Saturday - WWE AM / SNME
Sunday - PPV

They can probably do something from Wednesday/Friday and even Saturday. I'm pretty sure NBC Programming (unless its The Office on Thursday) is bad and would give both NBC and the WWE a big time ratings booster.

Uh...NBC having a ratings boost thanks to the WWE? Dude, the SNME's BOMBED each time since they were brought back. NBC would be crazy to even think about signing on for a weekly show.

the reason they bombed was because wwe barely put any effort into them.
the first epsiode was cool, you had the austin/jbl segment, shane vs shawn, and a bunch of other stuff.
after that it got cut to one hour and had basically one big match and thats it.
SNME used to be special but then wwe had to bring it back and crap all over it, thats why it bombed.

Re: Cancelled (by NBC): My Name is Earl and Medium

Yeah, just like they've done with ECW, they pretty much torched SNME.
Ya can't really blame NBC or another network for that, it's WWE's fault.

Of course, you can't blame the network for NOT wanting those either, because of the literal garbage they are any more

You watch ECW lately? It's actually really good now.
