Entire Fall 2005 TV schedule ... Smackdown moved to Fridays? WTF?

So they put Lost and Alias together, creating one of the highest rated / best quality 2 hour blocks... and then split it up. I guess it makes sense. But I worry about poor Alias, it was kind of falling in the ratings all alone on Sunday. Being against Survivor isn't good, despite the fact that Survivor has been sucking.

Only thing worth watching until January's seems to be Lost.

Sucks that JJ Abram's new show with Greg Grunberg isn't there for ABC. The Bounty show, I forget the name.

Hmmm ... and I guess 24 is starting in January again? Why is Smackdown on Friday's?

From what I figure and read.

It seems that UPN feels that the WWE audience where follow the show no matter where it goes. And they know it is not attracting too many new fans so they figured they could try and build up their Thurs night slot with new shows while moving SmackDown to Fri hoping the viewership comes with it.

Atleast them bastards at fox did the right thing by keeping arested development. I love that 24 will start in january again with not freaking repeats I wish lost would do this. I can't wait to see some the the previews to new shows I hope there is 1 or 2 worth watching.

Wow, it is really ASTONISHING how much shit there is on TV, even in "primetime".

At least the stuff I watch is coming back. Lost, 24 (eventually), The Office, Family Guy, Arrested Development...

Sweet Arrested Development gives me something to watch on Mondays(I used to watch RAW but now nothing) and I dont have to worry about it going against whatever is on HBO on Sundays in the fall.

Where is Scrubs?!?!?!?!?!

sweet.. looks like Arrested Development won't have any problems cleaning up in it's timeslot on Monday's.. good job fox (I can't believe I am actually saying this in seriousness for once).
 
Smackdown to Friday is a very good move for UPN/WWE. There's nothing on Friday that appeals to me, while Thursday is packed w/ Survivor, O.C., Smallville and Everwood for me (obviously Joey, Alias, CSI, W&G and The Apprentice have a greater appeal to others). They should see a boost in viewership. I know I'll tune in a bit more frequently.

I am upset that Thursday is so packed w/ shows while a bunch of other days are barren.

Monday I might give AD an extended shot to pull me in at 8, while 24 is a lock at 9 (hopefully Prison Break is solid in the meantime).

Tuesday has nothing at 8 and only House interests me at 9.

Wednesday I only care about One Tree Hill at 8. I might give Lost and/or Veronica Mars a shot at 9.

Friday is just Smackdown, but I'm not feeling wrestling as much these days.

I'm not a big Sunday TV watcher unless it's Sopranos.

There is a reason nothing is ever on Friday nights. Nobody is home to watch!

Anyone know anything about Invasion, which is showing after Lost? Sounds like it could be *similar* to Lost and they're trying to build a programming block out of it.

That show caught my interest also I can't wait to see a preview or something. There is not enough scifi on tv so any is welcome.

Kitchen Confidential on Fox has Jaime King in it. That's all I need to know to watch it no matter how shitty it may be.
