Nope. Next Monday starts the season.
Uh, 2005 != 2006.
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I've been getting up-fronts-gleaned gossip and spoilers for the past week and a half.
oooh. Unless you think LOST doesn't suck. No offense intended. I mean, your suckage may vary.
(Nothing very good this year, unfortunately. Mostly Lost spoilers which went and aired the night I heard about them.)
The presentation schedule for the upfronts this year for the major networks is:
Monday 5/15: NBC
Tuesday 5/16: ABC; mynetwork (what is this?)
Wednesday 5/17: CBS
Thursday, May 18: FOX; The CW

Some shows have already gotten picked up or canceled, though. I think some cable stations like Nick, TNT, TBS, etc. may have already done their presentations.
Well, huh. My sources are being sloppy with their vocabulary, I guess.
ooh, Allyson has whet my appetite.
ooh, Allyson has whet my appetite.
Mine too. Thanks!
Though I think I may have to annotate that a bit for people who aren't us.
Adam Baldwin's pilot, Day Break, just got ordered by ABC. Jeff Bell is supposed to be the showrunner.
ETA for series premise:
Did you ever have a day so bad you couldn't wait to get past it? The kind of day nothing goes your way, and everything turns out wrong. What would happen if you couldn't put this day behind you literally? Today Detective Brett Hopper will be accused of shooting state attorney Emilio Garza. He will offer his rock solid alibi. He will realize he's been framed. And he will run. Then he will! wake up and start the day over again. This time he'll do it differently – and will continue to – until he finds out who's framing him, gets his gang witness to court to testify, and until he saves the lives of his loved ones. Hopper has only one advantage in his favor – he remembers everything he did the "day prior" that didn't work. It's a painful way to learn because he also carries the bruises and battle scars from every mistake-filled day. Hopper must find the delicate balance between doing what's important and what's right to get through this killer day and move on to tomorrow.
It sounds like Groundhog Day meets Tru Calling or something.
Thanks for the news, Kristen. The folks at the Firefly OB will be glad to hear it.
