Breaking NBC upfront news: “Crossing Jordan” is still on

It must be, or it couldn’t have been canceled today as NBC announced its new fall lineup. “Bionic Woman” remake, a “Sex and the City” remake, several shows featuring — are you sitting down? — supernatural twists, and “Heroes: Origins.” The best idea ever? I’m pretty sure it sounds rad…
The spinoff will introduce a new character each week, and viewers will select which one stays for the following season.
In what will probably end up as the best news of the week — especially after reading that CW has not booked the cast of “Veronica Mars” in to NYC for the upfront — NBC made right by Texas and picked up “Friday Night Lights,” moving it to … Friday nights. Will that be better? Maybe it will.

Richard Ayoade as Moss
on “The IT Crowd”
NBC is only adding one new sitcom, and it will be “The IT Crowd,” which will probably not last but which notably will star Richard Ayoade, reprising his role from the original BBC series. He is hilarious and would be the star of midseason in an alternate reality in which there is not literally a “Bingo: the Game Show” on TV.
Speaking of the “Bionic Woman” remake…

friendbot8109:: sigh
friendbot8109:: I thought it was a joke or something
friendbot8109:: but.. jokes on me
donzacharias: hahaha
friendbot8109:: looks like the comedy is making a comeback!
friendbot8109:: ….. ?
donzacharias: oh my gosh she did not throw the guy across the room and then scream more
donzacharias: that was hilarious
friendbot8109:: that was the best (as in worst) part
friendbot8109:: what ever happened to quality cheesy shows like Greatest American Hero
friendbot8109:: yes please http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBKqwdxUH8U
I just realized that next week, after the upfronts, would be the perfect time for BLUE MAG to release its “Best of TV” list since it pretty much signals the end of the current season and begins the time when we all start gearing up to be disappointed by next season. So stay tuned for that, faithful fans…
