Additional notes from the ABC press conference.

While "Cougar Town" is absent from ABC's fall schedule, ABC Entertainment Group President Paul Lee told reporters it does have a time slot: Tuesdays at 9:00/8:00c once "Dancing With the Stars" wraps its fall edition. It will be followed by newcomer "Apartment 23" at 9:30/8:00c.

On if the late start means a reduced order for "Cougar Town": "No." Adding, if it comes to it, "we can run it through into the summer. I think what we want to have is more originals and more sustained originals [in general] as we go through the year."

On if he has any idea where the rest of their midseason shows will go: "I'd love to see 'The River' [the week following the Oscars] but I'm not guaranteeing it's going to be there... At the moment we're thinking 'The River' more [for] the spring and 'Good Christian Belles' we're thinking more spring as well."

On the episodic commitments for their new shows: "'Missing' has a 10 episode order. Obviously the ones in the fall are 13."

Once Upon A Time trailer

Looks like an expensive show to put together. Somehow I don't see it lasting very long.

Wow, not a single show I want to watch. I usually like ABC's hard edged crime dramas/police procedurals, despite the fact they are usually cancelled during the first season. It looks like they have given up on the genre completely.

 

[CenturyBreak]

I'm looking forward to Pan Am and... actually, that's it.

Mind you, since Pan Am won't be 'Mad Men take(s) to the skies', it's likely to be awful and die a quick death.

ABC Cancels 'Charlie's Angels'

ABC has canceled its Charlie’s Angels reboot.

Despite built-in brand recognition and heavy marketing blitz during the summer, the Miami-set reboot from Smallville duo Alfred Gough and Miles Millar failed to make a dent against heavy Thursday night competition.

Production has already been shut been shut down. The remaining episodes will continue to air until the network makes a decision on what will take its place and when. On Thursday, Oct. 27, ABC will air The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown at 8 p.m.

Pan Am is on death watch with its lowest ratings yet. If it dies, and it probably will, then both Mad Men clones die a quick death.
Slightly off topic but there was an itneresting article in the paper yesterday that despite its critical acclaim Mad Men (nor its AMC brother Breaking Bad) get that many viewers.

 

[PFD]

and it appears ABC is pulling the plug on PanAm
