Of course, this lineup doesn’t include the new shows that they have lined up fill holes where necessary, especially when the new year comes around.

Don’t be expecting Charlie’s Angels, GCB, Man Up, Missing, Pan Am, The River or Work It to be on ABC, though, because they have ALL been cancelled!

Anything on here that YOU will be watching?

I'm not embarrassed to say that my favorite television show of all-time is The O.C. I live by the motto "you can't fight fate!" More importantly, I watch WAY too much television, but I do so for the benefit of everyone reading this now. So to my mom and my wife, I say thanks for reading! To everyone else that might stumble across this, remember TiVo should be your best friend!
